    HOLA gente de Mexico!

    My mom used to put up an altar at home when we were younger. She usually put it a couple of days before "el dia de muertos" and left it only a couple of days after. She also made "pan de muerto" and tamales for us, which we loved. She hasn't put the altar up for many years now, my sisters and I were really scared of the thought of having the spirits of dead relatives coming to our home to eat :girlwerewolf2xn::help:

    I live in the border and trick or treating is pretty common here, so we had fun giving candy and looking at the little ones all dressed up like little monsters, they were soo cute :D

    My fiance and I met through work. We were assigned to the same project -but he was working at the corporate offices in Michigan and I was at the manufacturing plant. We were the only single members of the project team so it was usually just him and me going out to dinner after work whenever he came here or I went up there for team meetings. It was really nice since we could call each other everyday for free -company had an internal phone network connecting plant and corporate offices :P and we also got to see each other pretty often because of work :D I left the company a few years back, and since then our relationship got stronger. This year we finally decided we were ready for the "big step"..... and it's funny but since then, we've been feeling soo much in love with each other that it feels like we had just met and fallen in love with each other for the first time -even when it's been over 10 years since we first started dating :blush:

    I've also been lucky like KK, he's been able to schedule business trips down here pretty often, and I've been up there twice already this year for 5-6 weeks at a time. And now I'm getting ready to fly up there on Monday -can't wait for it!!- to spend the next 6 weeks with him. I'm hoping this will be my last "visit" and that next time I'll be flying to our "home" :)

    Wow waiting, it's great that your family is doing that! I guess he'll have a pretty good answer if they ask the question: how does her family feel about your relationship? ;)

    My future mother in law contacted her senator several times for us when our application was stuck in CSC limbo, but I'm not sure I can use that in my interview :P

    I'm planning on going :P

    I guess we're all nervous about the interview, I've heard good and bad experiences of people going to Juarez, so I'm just hoping I get one of the nice guys from the good reviews for my interview :)

    We are hoping we can go to Cd.Juarez in mid-December. I'm going to spend 6 weeks with my fiance in the US starting this Monday, and we're hoping we can go to El Paso by the time I come back.

    Lucy, do you know how far the consulate is from the bridge? is it easy to get a taxi from the mexican side?

    KK I'm soo excited for you!!! Are you planning on going to CDJ too?

    Well in my case it will be me they'll see :D

    Excelentes noticias KK! Por fin, ya era hora!!!!!!

    Entonces nos preparamos para 4-5 semanas mas de espera :wacko:

    My fiance just told me that he got the letter from the NVC today (dated 10/27) telling him that they got our case!! So I'm thinking that in 1 week or so CDJ will get it :) Ucla_cutie, maybe your's is there already too!

    OK so who's left? are we all - except for jessraul who's already at CDJ- at the NVC?
