Sarah's Back!

I can't tell you how great it is to have Sarah back! She had her interview on Oct 19th. Although it went well, they didn't really give her many details about when she'd get the actual paperwork allowing her to cross back into the States. They never actually said the words, "you're approved," so I wouldn't be totally relieved until she was physically walking off the plane in North Carolina. The visa ended up arriving on Wed Oct 31st around 10am. Sarah wrote me immediately, so I got the good news on my laptop during class and obviously didn't focus much on the lecture. We had already purchased a flight for her to come back (thinking it would be cheaper to move a flight, rather than purchase a new one), and since it was scheduled for only week after on the 8th, we decided to save the couple hundred bucks and not change the ticket. As planned, she landed in the Raleigh Durham Airport around 7:20pm on the 8th and life has been so much better since!
