Not to be contrarian, but rjessome should have had "probably" between "They will" and "let you back in".
It is the prerogative of the border officer as to whether you qualify as a "visitor." Don't assume that they'll let you back in just because you have a PR app in process.
doctorkb, I deal with this stuff everyday. Unless the OP has some sort of inadmissibility or misrepresentation issue, they WILL be let back in if they provide the proof of the sponsorship application in process. Even if they got some newbie CBSA officer who gave her a hard time, the supervisor would allow re-entry. Unless of course the government decides a policy change and issues a new directive to CBSA during the time the OP is on vacation. Barring that, if she's (1) visa exempt, (2) has no inadmissibility or misrep issues, and (3) provides the proof of a spousal sponsorship PR application in process upon entry, she won't have a problem.
Caution is prudent when dealing with immigration. As you can see, I've placed 3 conditions on her ability to re-enter so I'm not advising her to attempt re-entry with nothing.
