AWESOME! I din't know he was going to "take the plunge!" Hey...I also love the new picture of the kids at the ocean - when did you take that?

Really? Now? Doesn't he want to wait just a BIT longer, until all this chaos is under control?

I mean, um, Congrats!

Congrats to your dad-but now I am curious. When did you become a US citizen?

d-he started the process a long time ago, but for some reason never got around to finishing. he was at a meeting a couple of weeks ago and was talking to some type of government offical from NM and the subject came up. this gentleman started looking into it and got everything finalized for him.

sheri-i was born in AZ. all of us (my siblings) were born in the US. we had dual citizenship growing up.

ganelle-it's chaotic in both countries...MX is in the middle of a bad drug war. some scary things have been happening in our little town and surrounding area. we're praying for things to calm down.

Wow...I didn't know that your dad wasn't Americanized. Thanks for your comments on my blog. I found you through links from Jamie Jones, and it has been lots of fun seeing your family, and others from Mexico. I miss everyone alot, so this is a great way to keep intouch! You have a sweet, neat, fun family. All your kids are so cute, and I love that they are involved in lots. I hope you read my blog from June, that tells the story of my little girl. We live in Arizona, close to my parents, and my in-laws. But who knows where life will take us soon! My email is stampinelisa@yahoo.com, and I would love to keep in touch. Thanks for the other blog, she is very inspiring.
