It's official!!! I'm a new citizen of the United States of America!!! The ceremony took place on Friday, August 3rd in Fort Wayne, Indiana, a little over 2 1/2 hours away from Lafayette. The court house was very nice and the ceremony itself was very exciting. There were 46 new citizens all from 26 different countries. I was the only one from Ecuador :) It has been a very long awaited process and I want to THANK all my family and friends for your support and love during this time. It doesn't really feel much different but it sure is great!!!

Grandma Frazer came with us to the ceremony and then she invited us to a wonderful lunch to celebrate, when we got home there was a very special surprise at the front door, a beautiful plant and balloon from Susan and John :) Made it even more special!! THANK YOU!!!

Yo fuí la única del Ecuador :) Este ha sido un proceso muy esperado y extenso y quiero dar las GRACIAS a toda mi familia y amigos por su apoyo y cariño durante este tiempo. No se siente nada diferente, pero de seguro es algo grandioso!!!
