Chris & Maria's Blog

We’ve been very quiet on the blog, as we’ve been holding our breath on the whole immigration issue.  We didn’t want to talk about it too much, as we didn’t know what we could and couldn’t legally say.  I can now give you the latest, though, as we got the letter today.

We’re approved!  Maria is now a legal permanent resident of the United States!!  Thank you, God!  I know all of you have been waiting with us, and giving us loads of prayers and good thoughts.  We can now all breathe a sigh of relief.  We’ve notified our families, and all of them are so very pleased.

Thank you, all of our friends, for the support you’ve given us during this process.  We couldn’t be happier at this moment, and we look forward to finally being able to put down some solid roots together here, and celebrating this, the holidays and the new year with as many of you as possible.

Guess who’s on the front cover of USA Today? Yep, Barack Obama and Jon McCain, as expected. But look in the top right-hand corner and there’s another photograph, of none other than our good friend (and boss!) Melissa Anelli! It’s an interview about her new book Harry, a History (which we have on order and can’t wait to read). See the scan on Melissa’s site here, and read the article here.

We’re very proud of you Melissa!
