An American Citizen...Finally!!!!!

Hello All,
I am proud to announce that on June 19, 2008 at 2:00 P.M. I became an American Citizen. I am so excited as this is a goal that I have had for myself for a very long time. It really was a very specail event. All the associates at my work surprised me with flowers, a "Congrats" balloon, mini red,white, and blue cupcakes and a card. My husband, kids and my parents joined me for the ceremony at the Insititute of Texas Culture for the offical ceremony. They Judge preformed the ceremony. It was quite an event. There was an Army band that played, a recorded speach from The President, and three life testimonials from fellow applicants. I was lucky enough to get my name changed during this process, so now I can say that---after 4 years--- I am offically Juanita Foley. So I am proud to say that I now call America my country and my home.
