I guess I will be planning a trip for July. Wow, it's gonna be hotter than blazes in Jordan in July. Habibi better get me a place with a/c.

Jackie it was hot in October when I went, so I can't imagine how hot it will be in July! And as a side note, I am a travel agent on the side, so if you need help finding a cheap ticket just let me know. I can call the airlines directly and hopefully get you a cheaper rate! Take care!

Amanda- just saw your note on the whole travel agent on the side thing... what you got for March 7??? That is when he deicded he's gonna book for- so we're looking at ticket prices... I know they change rapidly after the first of March,.. summer's on its way! I have looked online myself, and he's looking there, its soooo frustrating not knowing exactly when he'll have his visa and passport- the consular said "less than two weeks"... so we're going a few days past just for security measures!--IF ya have any advice-I'd love it!=---Amy

book your ticket ASAP! Its a pretty expensive trip to make in July! Did 2 over the summer last year and realized if I had just waitied till after Ramadan, it would have been MUCH MUCH lesss! Hang in there Jackie-- what a pain the the patuutie!

Hey everybody!!

Im starting to get nervous!

Hubby is getting REALLY nervous (Im not sure if its just the interview or coming here...)...which makes me nervous.

Its going to be fine sweetie! Ours is tonight(tomorrow am in Jordan), and I just don't know how you can't be nervous?! I am flying about 3 feet above the floor! Its gonna be fine=-=come to my party tonight! JJ can give you all the details, or pm me and I will! We are all praying for you!!!--Amy

you're too fast Cleo!

Quick question...does everyone have to go through AP or is that a random process? Just curious...our attorney sent in the AOS fee bill this weekend...so we'll see how fast the next part goes.....wait wait wait...again...

ummm-well, as far as I know its all random. If there is something that gives a red flag to the NVC, or the embassy abroad, like an arrest, or somoene with a name close enough that was or is in political trouble...etc. Its hard to tell if you'll get it or not. Good luck Our prayers are with ya!-Amy

mmmmm some sweets for da party!

Oooh YUMMY! Any Fatiir? I LOVE THAT STUFF-and do you think I can find it anywhere within a 400 mile radius?! I tried to make it on my own-its just not as good- what is that sweet white cheese stuff anyways?! Tick tock, everyone ready!??

Gonna be fun to shoot the breeze with everyone! See ya tomorrow night!-Amy

Oh! and sorry Hackie(it was a slip of hte finger!)
