Update on Visa

Some of you have asked about the status on our visa process. Thanks so much for keeping up with us and checking to see how that's going!

We had a little bit of a "glitch" when we went in on the 9th to submit our paperwork. Everything was in order but the law had changed just that very week. A birth certificate, the original, was needed to prove that Olivia and Meredith belonged to us. Of course, some would say that both girls look so much like their two parents that we couldn't deny them! But, obviously, not official enough.

Prayer came through. We were able to quickly contact my sister, Kim, and she was graciously willing to go to our safe deposit box in Decatur to retrieve these documents. Within a mere 2 hours after finding out we needed these documents, Kim had gone to Decatur, gotten the birth certificates, and sent them off by DHL! We received them this past Monday. Currently, the documents are being translated into Hungarian and we will submit them this week.

Our date to return to the immigration office is February 27. Hopefully, we will receive a renewal on our visa and we will be able to stay in Hungary for another year. We're praying for a 2 year renewal! Why not ask Him is our philosophy?!

Thank you for your prayers. We'll update you soon.
