At Least This Blog is Free

Along with the joy of updating documents (I did say joy) come the fees that are associated with these updates. Here, there, fees everywhere! It's quite ridiculous to pay $15 for a certified copy of a marriage certificate. After we collect and notarize our docs (thanks Debbie!) we'll take them to the IL Secretary of State to get apostilled. Those fees are $2 per document so it adds up as well.

Last year we held two big fundraisers, the garage sale and the holiday marketplace. I'm not sure if we'll do anything similar but a look at our finances indicates a push will be needed to get us to Russia for trip two. We've begun filling out loan applications as well as we may need this to get us over the final hump.
