visa = happiness

hiya! end of the road update-

on august 16th, we hit a really low point with being 4000 miles apart and my mom offered to buy me a ticket to go to wales to visit robbie. expensive but SO worth it!!! we spent a lovely week together and knew we were waiting to hear if they had finished up with our final paperwork and approved the visa. we had a friend call the state dept every day, but they never told us they received any of the paperwork. the day i had to fly back to omaha, we were walking around london and were near the embassy. we wanted to storm in and demand they give us his visa so he could fly back with me!!!! but of course we just have wild imaginations. so i flew back on my own. but we were hopeful it we would be reunited again soon. i was afraid it would take another 2-3 weeks to get the visa couriered, like it did last time.

so i flew home on a friday, and robbie called me saturday to tell me the courier came to the house but he wasn't in!

we were so perplexed, it couldn't be the visa, it was toooo fast! we had called every day and they said nothing! we then began to worry they were returning the passport without the visa due to another miniscule problem.... so he rescheduled delivery for the next wednesday and it turned out to be the magic ticket!!! a beautiful pass to enter the US legally as my husband!!! oh what joy such a simple piece of fancy paper can bring! so we flew him out 2 days later and we are soooo unbelievably happy to be together forever. never going to be apart again!!!!!

just wanted to say thanks for all the wisdom we have acquired here and all the helpful people to listen to our stupid questions. VJ truely helped us figure the small stuff out, and without it we'd still be apart moaning about how horrible immigration is.
