Hey folks, how's it going?! Still waiting here in England. I hope you don't mind I stole the 'where will you go first' question for our blog. I'm trying to stay busy whilst we wait so anything helps, right? That's why I don't post on here too much but I actually check about 100 times a day to see if anyone else has been approved from May.

It's so cool to see the support for eachother! Haha by the way we're hopefully moving to the Florida Keys and we'll be 90 miles from the nearest Walmart...what will we doooo?!

I bought the dress I'll get married in...eventually! I also found some shoes the other day so even though I'm going insane waiting I've had a little bit of fun looking forward to that day.

Good luck this week, everyone!

If you want you can comment or give me wine, love or chocolate on my emigration blog. With this adventure I need them all!!

Currently.... they have issued Ice the incorrect GC and we have tried 4 times to fix it. First time they had us send it to the incorrect address. Second time they said we used an expired form, which was the form they gave us. Third time was "oh sorry we lost the last page, can you send it again?." Fourth time is the gov is shut down. Will this ever be corrected in time for Ice to get the permanent GC? Stay tuned to find out. T_T

Don't worry, I have the same feeling sometimes...but I take comfort in the fact that God is in control and he is paving this whole way for all of us!
