WE'RE DONE!!!!

Amazing amazing amazing. I was getting ready to leave for work- i get up early- and called Dave to find out what happened with his interview this morning at 8 am!!!! I figured he might not have been done yet as all the other reviews said it was really long waiting!! and we're donnnnnnneeeee he was approved- im so excited i almost don't know what to do with myself- i'm sure he's just walking around london now in a daze- His response was ' you can go email all your friends that I'll be there by thanksgiving and go post on visa journey to all those friends too' haha

Anyway he said it was really straight forward and that he actually got the impression from the people who were interviewing him that they were happy we were getting together- imagine that. With that said we did send an absurd about of supporting documents (4 years worth of dating plane tickets photos telephone bills etc) and had copies of everything and additional documents incase they asked any questions.

i'm imaging concentrating at work today will be near impossible!!!

much love to everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-Sarah

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
