Third update..

Over the next three days we were allowed to visit our "daughter". She loves bananas! I had brought a bunch of Gerber toddler snacks from the states and got a bunch of bananas from the hotel. One day I think I gave her a little too much to eat, they told us she hardly ate any lunch. OOPs my fault! The third and last day to visit was by far the best! Our little girl was in her own and Amy was too! :-)
They played and played for over 2 hours. Giggles & laughs; followed by hugs & kisses and ending with a goodbye & tears.

She is missed, but we are already pushing ahead on the paper work need for court. Maybe with Gods help we will be called very soon!

Friday morning we got up to return home. Our faithful driver Alex delivered us to the airport. We thanked him and told him we hope to see him soon.

After boarding the plane, we noticed that mechanics were working on the wing. Come to find out that one of the deicing valves had broken and they were trying feverishly to repair it. Well after about an hour they gave up and cenceled our flight. Yeah United! We got loaded up onto a shuttle and shipped to the "lovely" NOT Hotel Air; next to the Russian Airport. I have always been brought up or told to not to say anything if you can't say anything nice. So on that note I will just say we spent the next 18 hours sitting in a small bar, surfing the net & facebooking to friends back home. There I didn't say anything bad about United or the Hotel Air.

The next day United had brought another plane in from London and loaded us up to head back to the good ol USA. We were sad to leave Russia, but we are praying to be back quickly! Thats pretty much covers our first trip to Russia.

We wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and we hope to update you again real soon!
