Day 24

Today we were able to tour Moscow a little, but it is bitterly cold. Our facilitator took us to Red Square today where we were able to see St. Basil's Cathedral and the Kremlin. It is one of the most beautiful sights ever! We had to carry the boys and it was insanely cold so our sightseeing was a little shorter than we would have liked. The boys did great today. D had a little meltdown but it was more from a lack of a decent nap than anything. Once he napped he was in a much better mood. N has had a very bad allergic reaction to something and we are having to be very careful what we feed him right now. We think he has a bad allergy to either chocolate or bananas. He is a serious ladies man. He flirts with every woman that he comes in contact with. We went to a souviner shop today and they ladies that worked there were all over him. They would take turns holding him and he would have hug all over them. It was very funny. D stays right with Benji or I. He loves his attention but he wants it from us not other people.
My daddy is realizing he is far from Kansas here. He ordered mashed potatoes for dinner the other night and a sweet tea (with one refill), his meal ended up being $33. The sweet teas were $12.50 each. Anyone who knows my daddy knows he just about died when he got the bill! We laughed...a lot!
Here is our family portrait at St. Basil's...yes we have our local newspaper with us. Don't laugh!:
