Hi Everyone,

We're both very speechless at this point. Thank you so much for the welcome home thread, that was so lovely to read. Thank you also for the PM about the thread Jackie, to avoid putting in a repeative trend we both spent a while searching for it. If Andrew would of given me 20 more minutes I would have found it myself! But lol... gotta let him treat me and I'll just take the chance to put my feet up.

The flight was alright, was ill alot more than the visit but all totally worth it and it got me through that I knew all the way through the flight that it would be the last time I'd have to make such a journey.

Sorry we didn't post earlier, it's been a marathon. Up and out everyday making sure we get things done. Attempting to spend time with my parents before they fly home etc etc.,.

Anyway I'm going to post proper later also Andrew will.

Hope everyone else is doing good :)

Love hurts

When you live an ocean away

When you change your sleep schedule to catch a few more moments

When you really need to be held and you have to imagine whilst your partner describes it

When you constantly refresh the USCIS website to see if you're getting any closer

Love Loves

When it repays you with the love of your life

When God finally answered your biggest prayer

When you can live life again in the real world but still have that eternal connection

When you wake up for to the beginning of the rest of your life with the person you fought so hard for

When you love somebody that much

You'll do anything

Hi,

Back for an update.

Arrived on the 10th ok. British Airways are absolutely fantastic btw! Can't fault them one bit. The San Francisco port of entry went very smoothly also. Whilst my parents went through one line a porter took me through the new immigrants section where I was photographed, finger prints taken, signed forms and was told again about the 90 day blah blah. I was the only one there with a K-1 visa it seemed and they find them much more easier to check in than the other peoples who were standing there as I was just waved through. I was searched twice at Heathrow and again at San Francisco but it's all for our own safety. Wheelchair actually came back to me in one piece! which was great. The only bad point as I mentioned in the quick post above is mass motion sickness. But I'm here, fine and no longer ill. Andys mom and his sister-in-law met us at the airport. You would not BELIEVE it is October here, coming from Manchester - London to here it's like switching seasons. It's so bright!

Andy and I had a lovely reunion and are very happy together. My parents left back to England this morning. We also were on the ball and went down to apply for a marriage licience. Our courthouse wedding is November 6th! I also filled out the SSC form today to take in to get a SSN/SSC sorted asap.

And that's about it. It's true what they say, even after 15+ months seperated now we're together it's like it's always been that way.

:thumbs: Now to master this dang keyboard and mouse. I'm used to using a laptop. :lol:

Thanks for the update on your journey and arrival. I am glad that you are settling in and that you are moving at a brisk pace like the ss card and marriage license. Take care and will look forward to more updates on the wedding in the near future.
