My wife had her interview on Dec 16th and she passed! :thumbs:

She is flying to the US tomorrow on Dec 21st. Her first flight longer than a few minutes. :yes:

I am very worried :unsure: about her 20 hour international flight with a stop in Hong Kong, but she is brave and smart, so she should do fine.

The last step of the long arduous journey! :whistle:

Good luck to those still waiting to hear some good news!

WOOOHOOOO we're leaving the 31st!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

I'm driving to Toronto to grab my wife :D next week, Thursday 29th and then we go back to Chicago next day.

Unfortunately, I'll have to work on January 1st from 08:00 am, so there will be no really long New Year's celebration :oops:.

But, it's not a big deal. We'll catch it up later :lol:.

I want to congratulate all the VJ-members with upcoming holidays and wish to all of us all the best, wealthier and happier New 2012 Year and wish to make your all dreams come true (F) (F) (F)!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
