TA is here!!!

This is a biggie-we have received our Travel Approval. This means it's just a matter of getting our travel plans made and our consulate appointment. This is the picture on the Travel Approval certificate-we had already received it with her referral information. It is on several refridgerators in the River City.

I guess my experience with DHL just has to be dramatic...this time I waited all day for them to deliver the TA. Around 3 pm I knew that it would be anytime so I put the dogs outside. I was upstairs working and waiting to hear them knock on the door. At one point I heard a very faint tap but the dogs weren't barking so I didn't go downstairs. Then I heard I truck. I ran to the window and saw it was the DHL truck. So I flew down the stairs and out the front door. The driver had already gotten in the truck and was pulling away. I started waiving my arms and shouting "I'm here, I'm here!". She stopped the truck and I breathlessly told her she could deliver the package, I was home. She said, "It's on your porch" and looked at me like I was a little crazy. Sure enough, I leapt over the bright yellow envelope in my attempt not to have another DHL mishap!
