Well, Ali went to Ankara and down to the embassy yesterday. They took the paperwork and his passport. They told him that if everything is in order after they review his documents he *should* get the visa in 2-3 days.... I have my fingers and my toes crossed :)

I guess we should know in the next 2 days if he gets the visa...He has already reserved his ticket for Sept 1st, so if all goes well he will be here OMG in 22 days!! I just realized that is only 22 days OMG 22 days, and thats it? OMG

I have asked him to send me a pic so I make sure I take the right guy home... yeash wouldn't that be something! :lol::lol::lol:

Thanks again everyone for your wonderful support!!
