Monday we contacted the Salt Lake office of Senators Mitt Romney and Mike Lee. We asked for their help in finding out why we had not received the paperwork we need for our visas from the State Department. They said they would look into it. We tried to stay busy with small projects. Chris made curtains for Xela and Willa's bedrooms. I helped Sam make a roof over the stairwell to the new aprartment.
Friday we took Badger and Moose to lunch for their August birthdays. When we got home, I walked in and there on the counter were the envelopes from the State Department. I called Chris on the phone and told her. She said "I am turning around." She was on her way to fill up her car. We changed our clothes and went into the visa department at the church. They made copies of the paperwork from the State Department and then gave us back our passports and everything else we would need for our interviews at the Ecuadorian consulate in Phoenix. They said someone in church travel was working on getting us our tickets to fly to Phoenix on Monday (today) and then we would go to the interviews and then straight to Quito. We never heard anything from church travel. We will call into church travel later today. We hope to be traveling in the next day or two. Saturday night we took all our children and their spouses to dinner. One last fling.
