The Depps Arrive from Russia!!!



The months of December and January were more than full with family, fun and events. On December 23, Jenny, Matt, Addi and Maddox arrived in the States for a monthly visit! Adam, Matt, Kristen, Turner, Kit and I were at the RDU airport to greet them. Addi came running to me and I picked her up for a big hug. Maddox was busy helping his Dad push the cart loaded down with all the luggage. All of us had smiles and some tears as we were so happy to see them. Aunt Jenny was thrilled to finally see her new nephew, Turner. Here are a few pictures of that special evening as we went to Matt and Kristen's home for an American pizza dinner, requested by Jenny!

Kit and Maddox are nearby.

Aunt Jenny loved holding Turner.

Uncle Matt enjoyed meeting
Turner too.

Uncle Matt took his turn
at holding and feeding
Turner too.

Turner was happy to meet his
Aunt Jenny, Uncle Matt and
his cousins who live in Russia. He
watched Addi and Maddox as
they played in his house!

Maddox is such a happy
little 3 year old boy.

Addi was so proud that she
is now four years old! The kids
were wide awake and you'd
never guess that they had
been flying for many hours
to get to the States!

Uncle Adam enjoyed the family
fun of being together once again.

We had a great time eating pizza, laughing, talking
and sharing love for one another. And this was
just the beginning of the month-long visit for The Depps.

Playing around with Addi. Uncle Adam shows
Maddox a video on his cell phone. The pizza
was great and it was wonderful to have all of our
family together. God has blessed us richly.
