Still no word....
we are having to cancel/reschedule wedding as it was planned for 8/2 and now wondering if we will make it before the start of the school year!! I am really hoping things don't drag out that long, as I've lost their spots in their school in California
never dreamed this would take so long based on the posted processing times earlier in the year...
