We're leaving Toronto in a couple of hours to move to Michigan!!! We got back from France on Monday and we decided to leave today!!

I'm so happy and excited to move back, I can't wait! We're going to cross the border at the POE Windsor/Detroit. I don't have much stuff so hopefully it will be fine!!

This weekend we're going to Chicago :) We will probably celebrate again that I'm finally in the US!

Congrats and good luck!! I'd recommend taking the bridge other than the tunnel, I've just found a lot more informed officers work at the bridge.

My wife has been back since June 5, 2007. Now we're just livin' man, L I V I N :)

We are in KALAMAZOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes :)

The POE was very easy (we took the bridge) and it last 30 min... A few tricky questions just to check: like 3 times in 5 min "are you married yet" and "when are you getting married" and "what is your job now?". Obviously none since i cant work.

It was very easy and people were very nice. They did ask me 3 times "do you understand what it means when we activate your visa and that we let you enter the country? You can't leave the country before GC or AP etc etc.... But it was nice :)

They didn't search the car and we were on our way right away.

We also found out that we might get married sooner!!!! I might have to go back to France before during the fall so we figured we should start the AOS earlier so i have AP earlier!!! It would only be the civil wedding and we'll keep the big ceremony for september but im excited to do it very soon now!!!!
