I have some "interesting" news to share.  It looks like someone has "dropped the ball" within Dans company or the French embassy.  (No one seems to want to take the blame.)  We were informed recently that our visa's are not ready.  In fact, some of the paperwork was just submitted.  Hmm. 

My Dan was carrying this on his shoulders for over a week afraid to tell me the news. He kept on hoping that our visa's would somehow appear and our plans would remain the same.  Well, that did not happen and the latest news is that we will need to stay in Texas for a couple more weeks until our visa's come in.

Makes life interesting when our tenants are moving in at the end of the month.  We sold our cars.  We withdrew the kids from school.  You know, you have to laugh at all of this because this is completely out of our hands.  If I don't laugh, I will cry!   

A part of me is very frustrated but another part of me knows that God is in control and that we need to stay put for some reason.  I am completely exhausted and the idea of staying in a hotel where a maid cleans every day along with a laundry service at the hotel sounds quite nice.  Ha.

The kids were beyond excited when we told them that we are heading over to the Hilton in Town Square (a mere mile from our home).  They love a hotel.  Thank goodness!
