After 20+ years living in the USA I finally took the oath and became an American Citizen a few weeks ago. It was very emotional and my friends and family were all there to share the special moment.
Friends and Family trying to get a glimpse
Almost my turn!
Naturalization Certificate!
I got it!
My sister Grazia was the first one to congratulate me...she's next!
Notice that I am wearing the same Red, White and Blue ribbon that Annalisa was wearing on her sleeve the day she became a naturalized Citizen of the US. Of course, she's much cuter than me :)
