Yup, we did! And it's NOVEMBER 20th!!! Oh my God, now it all begins. I'm not sure I'm going to be able to continue working today...

It will be almost exactly 11 years to the date since we left Ukraine on November 26, 1996.

Congrats on getting your date!
Thanks also for the note regarding the time between your submittal and the date. It may be better for us to plan on that.
Of course, that pushes us closer to Christmas, so then it's almost better to wait until January.
Anyway, we're thrilled you've passed this next milestone. Can't wait to follow along!

I am sorry it took me 4 days to find out about your date! That is awesome. I am so happy that you have the date now and you can start the next preparatory stage. Life goes on as normal for a bit, and then it seems like you hit a time warp! I can't believe we leave in 3 days. I was hoping that our paths might cross in Odessa, but....don't take this the wrong way or anything....I sure hope they don't now. But I do hope that the system has smoothed out some by the time you get there.
Lord Bless!
