Congratulations Mrs. Darren!!!

Well today I finish work ready for my move, lots of packing to do, get stuff ready for shipping next week.

I have left the last week for me, to go and enjoy time with friends and family that I am leaving, pamper myself, omg I cant believe its so close now.

I'm so glad for you, Sally!!! Your big day will be here in no time!!!

One of my big days is today! We're going to the courthouse and getting married!!!

Wow Dawn and Darren good luck, we have to wait till the ssn arrives before we can get married.

Our county doesn't have the ssn requirement...thank goodness!

Hey you know.. this is going to sound kind of silly but it's true...

I wish we all could have filed the AOS around the same time. You guys are much more fun and more considerate than the June AOS filers.. I shouldn't say that I guess.. maybe we all just get along better..

I'll just be glad when all of us are completely done with this mess!

Thanks so much everybody!!! The ceremony took place in a little room just outside the courthouse; it was decorated simply, but it was wonderful! My mom, dad, and maid of honor for my December wedding were there.

I can't believe Darren and I are married...still feels a bit surreal...

Thanks hon. I appreciate you thinking of us. :) It is what it is I suppose and my eyes are still on the prize! I know it's coming! :)

It will come Kim, each day that passes by means your NOA2 can't be any longer and soon you will be with Russ celebrating wedding and anniversaries after anniversaries and more anniversaries ahead. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. (F)

AWW, this is sooo sweet of you... All of the January filer has been like an online family to me and I also wish to file AOS same time with all of you guys but my AOS won't be til October. Most of you, if not all of you might be done with the process that time.

I hope all your AOS process will be as fast as your K1 if not faster. :thumbs:

Come over here, let me pinch you... UMMM... you're awake Dawn, your not dreaming. WOW! You are officially MRS. DARREN and when school resumes, your student will be calling you MRS. DARREN :yes: . That must take a little getting use to, but it will be sweet to hear. :thumbs:

Congrats Dawn & Darren!

Hopefully we have some good news this week too... our interview is FINALLY on this Friday!

(Sure wish he was already here, and we were already married. It's so lonely here by myself. I had to send my children away to spend the summer with my parents. You'd think I'd enjoy the solitude, but I'm going out of my mind instead. It just wasn't supposed to be this way.)

hey guys sory i havent been around much busy with lots of things and just got back from the cape, paul became really badly dehydrated though and has heat exhaustion, his temp went up to 103.5 and every time it went down with the use of meds and ice packs it would go back up again :S he's been feeling pretty bad since friday today hes starting to get better. It's a scary thing, we didn't know what else to do to get his temp down and didn't know how long his temp would last 3 days is a long time for a temp like that! and without insurance it would be lots of money to go to the ER but as of right now hes feeling lil better *fingers crossed* I'm going to get our pics from the litle wedding and post them shortly .

congratz to everyone who has met their sweety and or married them since I was last on

now bring on the AOS :P hehe

1 quick question before i go..

Susie,

Im sorry to hear Paul has not been well, this heat is something we all have to adjust to.

I think once you are married you can file for the AOS, I dont think it matters about the ssn. If Im wrong someone please say.

2 Weeks for me and I will be with Jay, jetlagged but there nevertheless lol.

Sal and Jay

Congratulations Darren and Dawn!

Nicole - I am sorry we can't all go through AOS with you! But I'd love it if you and others would drop in on the rest of us when we file to give advice and support. :D

Susie, I really hope Paul feels better soon. It must be rotten to fall so ill so soon after arriving. (F)

I'm hoping that Paul is feeling better, Susie...I am definitely going to have to acclimate Darren to the equatorial climate here in Florida...

Thanks for the well-wishes!!! We're tying up some loose ends from England (like trying to take the hold off his credit card...so far a 5 day odyssey). As soon as that's finished, we're going to the social security office, drivers license bureau, and my employer to change my name legally. We have caterer/cake tasting appointments this week, so that should be fun...

Hope everyone is having a great day!!!

Don't think like that. POSITIVE VIBES....Everything will be okay. You're correct he can get the EAD stamp at JFK...wishing you all the best. Don't be nervous, because you'll make him nervous. Take care.

********************************************************************************

....when it hurts to look back and you're scared to look ahead LOOK beside you and I'll be there.....

There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore... and who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.
