The Girls

June is a month of birthdays for me and my cousins.  My oldest cousin Jan was born on June 19, Katy  was born on the 14, and I was born on the 15.  One of the cool things about having kids is they grow up and enlist the help of their aunts to throw a surprise party.  Madeline (Katy's Daughter) wanted to surprise her mom and got my other cousin Liz to organize it.  So it was indeed a fun surprise for Katy with family coming down from Logan.  My aunt made the famous "George Washington Cake".  It's was a recipe my Grandmother used, I'll have to get it and post it here.  A fun Saturday and Katy was definately surprised!

New Look

I love when Bree redesigns my blog, I notice girlfriend and I'm so glad you have the skills that I lack!!!!

Proud to be an American

Congrats to my sweet sis-in-law who became an American Citizen on Wednesday June 8, 2011!!!  It was a very moving experience and those of us who are born here are so lucky.  Our 25 new citizens came from 18 different countries.  Listening and talking with some of the other people was awe inspiring.  The stories that these people had, some political refugees was incredible.  The ceremony started with singing the Star Spangled Banner and the Pledge of Allegience.  The Director of Immigration then gave a short speech and proceeded to announce the countries of origin alphabetically.  At that point all 25 took the oath and were sworn in. At the end there was a short speech from President Obama and we then all sang Proud to be an American while watching a beatiful clip of our country's many beauties.  I wish I had done better on the picture taking but I was having fun helping all the new immigrants get their pictures!!!  I'm definately going to take my kids to one of these events when they are older, it's such a wonderful event to witness and to be a part of.  Love you Pia!!!!
