Our Family

Here is a picture at a piece of art outside the government offices. I wanted to get David with his certificate but he had to send it in when he applied for a passport. He'll get it back in a couple of weeks and I'll get it then.
Aqui es una foto afuera del edificio del gobierno. Queria tomar una foto de David con su certificado pero el tenia que mandarle para obtener una pasaport. Voy a tomar otro cuando recibe otra vez.

American at Last!!!/El Americano!!!!

One of over 1600 people getting their citizenship today! We got in line to check in at 6:45 and the line was already on the second side of the huge city administrative building. By 9:30 we had entered, but the line wrapped around the entire building and up the street. Participants sat on the floor and guests sat up in the balcony.

David fue uno de 1600 personas que recibieron sus certificados hoy dia. Llegamos al edificio a 6:45 en la manana y a las 9:30 podemos entrar. La linea para entrar estaba por todos lados del edificio y en la calle. Los personas se sentaron en el bajo, y nosotros (Amy, Analeah, y Sofia) nos sentamos arriba. Here's David!
After the oath, the judge named all the countries in which participants were from. When each country was called, the participants stood up. Here is David when Ecuador was called. He was the only one that I saw stand up.

Despues de la ceramonia, el juicio, dijo todos los nombres del paises de los participantes. Cuando dijo "Ecuador", David, levanto de pie con su bandera! Pienso que el estaba la unica de Ecuador.

David my dio un programa para arreglar las fotos en la computadora. Me encanta jugar con mi nuevo cosa. A veces gasto mucho tiempo:) Aqui hay unas que trate a cambiar. Que piensen ustedes?
