thanks everybody!!!!!!!

Hey Cami! My husband and I are doing K-3 because we've heard that it's much quicker. It's NOT DCF if you get a K-3, right? I'm waiting for some pictures from my parents of my husband and I to send as evidence and then I'll send out the I-130 package. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO SCARED!!!!! :(
