I've been away for a while. Just want to give a big CONGRATS to all who have passed their interviews and gotten their visas (Congrats, Lucians Girl).

My Natalya's interview is tomorrow. She is more nervous than I have ever seen her before. It's been a l-o-n-g year and a half. Tomorrow is the day. I think I might be just as nervous as her.

Anyone hear from Eli the Barrowboy lately? Boy, I really do need to catch up!

Anyway, CONGRATS to all who have got their visas.

Hi, Tars. I almost never post in this thread anymore because it is too hard to find. ElitheBarrowboy's visa was approved, but I can't remember when it was so I'm not sure where he and Mercedes are now (probably busy getting ready to move or else unpacking).

Good luck with your interview! Natalya will do just fine and it will be over before you know it.

Congratulations on your marriage, Lucians!

We need an update from Tars.

Congratulations, Lucians Girl. I wish the best for you both. As for me, my Natalya flies out of Russia on Sunday 13th. She passed her medical and the visa interview. She's both excited and very nervous at the same time.

I heard from Eli the Barrowboy. He'll be flying in to the US July 22.

It's been a long, sometimes harrowing, experience for all of us. But the wait is well worth it. Congratulations to all.
