After 7 months and 6 days since our filing date Julia arrived last night at midnight at the Omaha airport! Her passport was delivered Monday morning 10am moscow time, and She boarded at plane at DME at 1355. So we got our license today and we will be married on Friday! We are both so happy, and so thankful to everyone here for their help! We just want to take two weeks before we have to think about more paperwork for the AOS and AP and whatever else is down the road. We are truly enjoying this time, knowing we have a lifetime without having to say "I will see you in a few months." I have my best friend and lifelong partner! Ya Lublu Tibya Yulia Bandashevskaya! Ocin Silno!!

Spacibo Bolshoy to everyone here! Its so fun to follow along some of these conversations now and then!

"I want to take this opportunity to mention how thankful I am for an Obama re-election. The choice was clear. We cannot live in a country that treats homosexuals and women as second class citizens. Homosexuals deserve all of the rights and benefits of marriage that heterosexuals receive. Women deserve to be treated with respect and their salaries should not depend on their gender, but their quality of work. I am also thankful that the great, progressive state of California once again voted for the correct President. America is moving forward, and the direction is a positive one."

Nice work and great timing. I like the part about getting on the plane so soon after visa was issued.

Congratulations on the upcoming event. Seriously, don't forget Women's Day.
