Thanks everyone!

Things are moving very quickly now, Johnny goes in on the 9th for his medical and Xray and then the 17th is his interview date. This whole process has definitely been a 'hurry up and wait' experience to say the least! Haha

Oh yes, I'll post some of the pics on here and on Facebook (if anyone is on FB and wants to add me as a friend, just PM me.....I have my profile set to private bcuz my ex is on FB too so I'll have to add you instead of the other way around..lol!) I'm VERY excited that his friends are coming....I've been hoping to meet this couple for a while now and I'm so happy I will finally be able to!!!!

Lyndsey - hehe...yep, hurry up and wait is an excellent way to describe this whole process!!! Johnny shouldn't have any problems at all with the medical/xray....and the interview will be a piece of cake for him too!

Hugs, Liz

Hi everyone! and thank you Liz for letting me know about this Dutch/American Couples thread :thumbs:

I met David 12 years ago in Mexico City but lost contact for many years until we found eachother in Facebook, some months after we regained contact he came to Holland and about a year ago we began "dating" :blush: I have been travelling a lot to the US in the past months, so much that everytime I have to clear customs and they see my file in their computer I get asked lots of questions :angry:

Our paper work is still in process,I do not have the date for my interview yet, I just sent the package3 to the consulate and I hope to get some news from them before the end of this year........ we plan to get married in Florida, where he currently lives although he is originally from San Antonio, and we will be living in Miami.

Im on FB also set in private mode but feel free to send me a message to add you :-) acobielles@gmail.com

YAY...glad you came by! Welcome to our little thread...lol!

You say David is from San Antonio....is it the one in Florida or the one in Texas? I'm from San Antonio, Texas that's why I ask..hehe!

I'm on FB and set to private too but I'll be sure to send you a message when I get home!

Glad to hear that your almost to the end of your journey....the rest of what you have to do now is pretty easy. From what I've heard from those who've been through the interview already, it's a very easy thing and the longest part is the waiting to be called to a window...lol! Please let us know how things are going.....hopefully you'll have your interview very soon!!!

Hugs, Liz

I have been living in Tilburg for about a year now, but I used to live in Den Bosch. I work at Tilburg University.

I am Mexican/Dutch (both citizenships) living in Holland for 8 years now... soon in the US!! :dance: I think if you look for me in FB with my e-mail address you will find me.

David went to Alamo Heights High School '88 and then to Baylor '93 Accounting... are you also from San Antonio?

Ever heard of Limburg Liz? Well Den Bosh or 's Hertogenbosh is right next to it. North Brabant is the Province. ^^ I really like that province because it has lots of nature in it.

Congratz Johnny and Lindsey!!!! Was about time, good luck with the interview!!

Welcome Adriana ^^

Love is patient and kind;

it is not jealous or conceited or proud;

love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable;

love does not keep a record of wrongs;

love is not happy with evil, but is happy with the truth.

Love never gives up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail.

Love is eternal.

Thanks!

I know where 's Hertogenbosh is, and the province of Limburg! I cannot say 's Hertogenbosh to save my life, I've tried and it is not pretty. Anyway, Johnny and I have been to Tilburg several times to go to the Efteling.
