Update

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to give an update on our family.  We still haven't made any progress with the divorce, and we all continue to live together still.

We have a hearing on Nov. 14th at the courthouse where we will present evidence for our differing stances on certain aspects, specifically regarding parenting time and ownership of the marital home.  That hearing isn't before the judge, but will be with a "Referee" with the Friend of the Court.  The Referee will then make another recommendation for us and will submit it to the judge.

After that, the judge will decide if she will just accept the recommendation and make it the final judgement, or have us continue into trial.  We have a tentative trial date set for Dec. 5th, though that will likely be pushed back to allow 4-6 weeks for the referee to make her recommendation.

At this point, we're looking at least until the end of January or into February before anything becomes finalized.  My goal is (and I believe Van's still is, as well) to keep the children in their current schools where they are thriving, especially Khai.

We appreciate any prayers and thoughts you can send our way, especially for the kids.
