The people that got us through

Earlier today I thought there wouldn't be any exciting news to share to warrant a weekly update. Boy was I wrong!!!

WE GOT OUR RELEASE LETTER!!!!!!

I cannot tell you how much of a relief this is. This means our boy is officially off the Federal Databank. You are one step closer to learning Pickle's true identity.

So the timeline from here is:
Our coordinator will collect Pickle's paperwork, combine that with ours and file it to the court. This should take anywhere from 2-3 weeks.

The judge then is taking about 4 weeks to schedule court dates.

Then families are getting about 4-5 weeks notice before the actual court date.

We may have a pre-trial date, we may not. The judge gave 1 court date without a pre-trial last week. So who knows. What we do know is that we are officially waiting for the last step now. No more paperwork (except that pesky updated immigration form)!!!

There really isn't any other exciting news. (well other than it was 4 families that got their letters, us, C&N, Jamie & Suzanne and Kathou and Paypay) Preliminary plans are already in place for a big party once we are all in Russia!!!

So my previous question still applies;

If you could equate your personality to any television character who would it be?
