Since I shared with you the momentous event of our Citizenship, let me share with you today how we celebrated that important milestone in our lives!
Let's start off with the DECORATIONS...
|
Yup, I brought out my Christmas Lanterns |
|
American Flags everywhere |
|
I think Brass goes well with anything Americana right? Think of our Forefathers ;-) |
|
I brought out the wreath I made last year and added more flags |
|
The Buffet Island |
|
Yup, more stars up above! |
For the food, we had everything "American" of course...
|
Chips, wings, Salmon, Salad, crabs, sliders, Mac n' Cheese, corn, rolls, etc |
|
I like how my Wings station turned out - Had 3 types of wings (Roasted, Honey Barbecue & buffalo) & 2 types of dip (ranch and Honey Mustard) . I had Potato salad and Coleslaw on the side too |
|
Red, White & Blue Desserts |
|
Yeah, I'm that "rich", used this cute Benjamin Franklin Napkins for the party!!! |
|
We had The Hotdog and Chili station down in the basement along with chips and Pizza |
|
For a hug party like ours, adding stickers to wine glasses helps if your out of charms |
It was a fun-filled night with our family and friends and we capped it off by watching a big Boxing match of our favorite Filipino fighter, Manny Pacquiao. Everyone wore Red, White and Blue too to celebrate with us!

ReplyDeleteCongrats Vel!! What a special event! I remember when my mom became a citizen, it was so special to her and she still 30 years later cherishes her adopted country as much as her homeland. So happy for you!
