mike's brother just got married to a ukranian gal in the ukraine. they wanted to have a ceremony here in the u.s. of a. with her family here as well. well, they couldn't get a visa to visit. the gov was convinced they would immigrate here. the gal, ina, couldn't even get a visa. well, mike's mom began a letter writing campaign to her senators and congressmen. i thought this was ridiculous of course, and a part of me wanted them to get denied again just so that they could see how ridiculous their attempts were. their not personal friends of these senators or congressmen by the way. well, they went and met on tuesday with the embassy, again, letters in hand, and they were granted their visas, all of them. they will be here on thanksgiving day. isn't that insane? they said yes to them on tuesday and they will be here on thursday?
when it's all said and done i'm actually very happy that they will indeed be here. it will certainly liven up thanksgiving.
