So here we go!
I'll probably have to start a different blog after I get back home (China) to tell tell you all about the amazing stuff there and do my best to explain how it all worked out, and simply keep this one for crafts and pretty music and pictures and whatnots.
Well lets see where to begin. As with most countries (other then the U.S.A. *face palm*) to get married in China you need a Proof of Single Status. So as a U.S. citizen marrying a Chinese national, needing paper work that my government doesn't provide, what am I to do!? Make it up? Well kind of.... Basically I have to make an affidavit and have it certified by all the appropriate parties (Notary public, DE state department, US state department, my Chinese consulate (which just so happens is the Embassy in DC)) Well all that said, I've made it to step 3, I sent my paperwork in to the state department last Monday, with the expectation that it would be back by this Monday .... I'm still waiting for USPS to tell me (via tracking code) that they've even sent it back. Meanwhile, I'm trying to settle and get everything else done that needs doing. There are so many things!
