This week Mom & Dad became US Citizens... 11 years from when we first moved to California. We are very happy to finally join our sons as dual US/SA citizens. It was a very formal and memorable ceremony at the Memorial Auditorium in downtown Sacramento. In total there were 808 people being sworn in as US citizens. India, the Philippines and Mexico had the largest representation with only 2 other South Africans present.
Aiden is doing very well with his broken leg. Since he is allowed to walk on it, he is very mobile except when he chooses not to be. He can go to the bathroom by himself, climb stairs and even play on the slide at the playground. He returned to school on Friday, but leaves a little early since they do not want him playing outside with all the other kids until his cast comes off.
Christina's high school friend, Karen Hoffman, visited with us this weekend from London and it was very nice to catch up with her again.

Didi they have a different ceremony where you don't have to renounce your previous allegiances, or did you just stay silent during that part ;-)
Baie geluk. Ek is baie trots op my amerikaanse familie lede. Nou moet julle net hoop Gawin word nie weer vir diensplig opgeroep nie!
