A Day in Moscow

Yesterday we spent the day visiting around Moscow. We met Kathy & Anya Roberts (who we went to the medicals with). Anya is 12 years old and a true joy!!! She was wonderful with Cassidy. They had a lot of fun in the car. Hopefully they will be able to come to dinner with us after the embassy this afternoon. Cassidy has been talking about Anya all morning.


This evening was just as eventful. We had dinner with Dan, April & Ava Isreal. They introduced us to this great little American Diner called the Starlight Diner. The food was very good. and it was close to the hotel. The walk there was pretty, we got to see all the sites along the way.

And Ava - What a CUTIE Ava is. She laughed, smiled and looks just like her papa. She is very attached to April. You can certainly see the bond already forming between mommy & daughter.

Today we have our interview at the US Embassy at 2pm. Afterwards we hope to go to dinner with Kathy, Anya, April, Dan & Ava. It should be a fun night!!!
I will post more pictures later.
ENJOY!
Stephanie, Dennis & Cassidy

Please tell Kathy and Anna that we send hellos to them and I soooo miss them! Loved the pictures! Hope you have a fun, calm, non-eventful flight home!

Thanks for posting the pictures of the Christmas trees. Different and very beautiful.

Glad you were able to meet the Israel's during your time in Moscow. How fun to have that connection.

Have fun at the Embassy. It is fun to meet all the other adopting families during your 2 hours waiting there.
