On September 23, 2006 Kathleen came to Argentina. On October 5, 2006 Kathleen and Federico, a native of Buenos Aires, met through mutual friends at a restaurant, Congo (5329 Honduras in Buenos Aires, Argentina). Ms. was in Argentina directing a documentary, and Mr. works in film, so they were introduced to each other because of common interests. Ms. and Mr. began to date after that night. On December 16, 2006 Ms. returned to the States, and on January 7, 2007 returned with her mother and brother. Mr. , Ms. and her family went to Colonia, Uruguay between January 15-17, 2007. February 14, 2007 Mr. proposed marriage, and Ms. accepted.

Thoughts?

As evidence, I am including photos between October and now of us, with my family, and relavent passport stamps. Also, a phone bill, and a reciept for our engagement dinner party (tonight!) along with the invitation.

It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.

Soudns excellent!

Sending in those kinds of pics sounds great, we had been together for 5 years before filing, so I had plenty of pics. I sent photos, plane ticket stubs, and stamps in passport to cross reference with.

Good luck!
