Hey everyone,

Ok I'm still too excited to talk but my hubby just called me and he got approved. They told him to go back on Wednesday to pick up the visa.

I can't believe this, it's like a dream. :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

Thank you all for being such a great support.

I haven't gotten the details yet but as soon as I do I'll post them to let everyone know of the questions.

lots of love and God bless
