I just got off the phone with my fiancee who just came from her interview at the US Embassy in Manila. She said the consulate and people there were very friendly. The last thing the consulate said to her was, "Enjoy your stay in America". My friends here on VJ, you are the first to know and I thank you all for your support and advise over the past eight months. Our journey isn't over, but the most stressful and trying times are behind us (I hope). :dance::dance::dance:

Congratulations on such happy news! May God grant you two the desires of your hearts, and Bless you on the remainder of your journey. (F)

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
