A BIG step closer!!!!!!!!!

We received news today that our Dossier has been released from both the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and the Ministry of Education!!! It was a wonderful surprise... we were preparing for a longer wait at MFA...Our dossier has also officially been assigned to the region of Uralsk!!! That was the last big hurdle... now we simply have to wait for the regional authorities to send us an invitation to travel. No clue as to the timing of yet... We do know that most of the gov office close during July and resume activity in August....We're so excited...it's now really hitting us...soon our family will be expanding...we can't wait.
