One 15x11x4 box, 550+ pages, $90 in photocopying, and endless man hours later....

........... and it's been delivered!!!  Oh man, what a relief!!  It seriously measured 4" tall, people....that is ridiculous!

This is our whole life pictured here... for the past 4+ years, at least.  We had to include proof that we have kept in contact with one another since we've been apart, so we have Vonage bills, Verizon bills, emails, photocopies of cards/letters, etc.  We had to photocopy plane tickets, travel itineraries, hotel reservations...the list goes on.  There were a million forms, some of which we had to include multiple copies of.  There's proof of Luke's medical exam, 3 police clearances, 4  passport photos, and most importantly the receipt of all the money we've paid!  There's photocopies of tons of wedding stuff, 60+ pages of photos....too much stuff to list!! :)

These are our photocopies on the right....I spent over an hour at Staples, at $0.07 a copy, so spent like $90 on a full set of copies of everything for both Luke and I - eeeep!!!  That's a lot eh...I almost died when I realized.  But there's not much we could do about it - we both needed to have a full copy of the package....

And this is me, losing my mind when I'm about to leave for the post office to send this bad boy out....look at the size of it!!! :)

And now the real stress begins.  We have faith....we're staying positive.  We're likely not going to hear anything for at least a month, so that will be a wee bit frustrating, but that's just the way it is.  Anyway, this is it....it's a huge relief and stress off our minds to get this thing out of here!  We're excited and anxious and positive to get this process underway :)

Keep us in your prayers!  We sure appreciate it!! <3
