Hey Everyone...

Long time no see.

I think this post will be a huge surprise to everyone, as it is still a huge surprise to Dave and me.

I just wanted to let everyone know so that you don't think we completely dropped off the face of the earth!

Dave and I have decided to call off the wedding and the relationship. It happened for reasons I do not wish to discuss here though. Dave and I are still on really good terms and are just taking every day as they come.

We just want to say thank you to everyone for the support you have given us through this silly process that we got all the way through! :P Arg!

Hope everyone is well and good luck on being with your loved ones!

Thanks so much again,

Marina and Dave

Hello all,

Just to re-update. Kessington had to reschedule his visa interview. It's now scheduled for June 21. He's still waiting for some documents from Nigeria. He finally got his Senegal police report yesterday, after being given the run-around for over a month. :ranting: So we have to wait 2 more weeks to find out, but at least he'll receive everything he needs and actually have time to breathe before the interview. Thanks again for your support.

CONGRATULATIONS EliyMauri!!! Mae, today's the day!! I hope you have a beautiful day and life together Karoline and Paul!!! I'm not expecting to hear from John&Diana for a while. :devil:
