Everything will be fine for you guys and Kate & Javi! :D

It is nice that you guys get to spend some time together. That's awesome!!

Good luck to all of you!! Positive thoughts going your way, always. :luv:

Thanks!!! Yes, we will finally meet in person...we don't live far away but haven't had time between all 4 of our work schedules to get together until now. And none of us have cars so taking buses complicates things. Anyway, we head out tomorrow morning and will do the medical on Monday morning...celebrate our 2nd official anniversary as a couple on Tuesday...and interview on Wednesday! Then we cross everything possible that they give us the visa on the same day or the next afternoon so that we don't have to make another trip down to the capital to pick it up! (They don't send them to you here...).

Lots of positive energy to you, too, Kim! I see that you have some big decisions to make while you wait to see when the interview will be......try not to stress yourself out too much! ;)

Wow we made it! We are getting married today!!! :)

Congrats!!!

I arrived yesterday with half an hour delay but I was out of the airport in half an hour!! and considering the time to get off the plane!!

POE was super easy, took not even 10 minutes. The officer was really nice, I asked him about whether they would change/notify of the change of address but he said no, that if he were me he would just change it when we do AOS... Dont think I'll follow his suggestion on that... I think I will change address online and send a letter to USCIS, just to be on the safe side :)

But yeah, now here I am, up at 3.30am... jetlagged!!! Lol

Thanks Beth, I'm not stressing too much. I have a lot of positive reasons to go sooner rather than later, but we want to be sure we do the best thing for the kids. We will know closer to the time which is the right decision. :)

Good luck with your interviews.. keep us posted!! :D
