Team America

We have some of the best neighbors anyone could ever ask for. Sarah and I are always saying if we win the lottery (even though we don't play) we wouldn't move to a fancy neighborhood, we would just remodel like the dickens (even though we are kind of already doing that) - and the reason is because we love our neighbors so much. One household, whom we affectionately call the "Canadian Neighbors" recently had some big news, and subsequently, are now known simply as the "Canadian Neighbor." After many years of having a green card, Brad completed his interview process, naturalization test, raised his right hand, and became an American citizen. Team America just grew one team member stronger. To celebrate, they threw a huge American themed party. Everyone wore red, white, and blue, and jeans and sneakers - everyone except Sarah that is. Grace was also in attendance as an infant lady liberty - sans green robe, book, and torch - ok, she only wore a crown.
The Canadian Neighbors, Brad and Jessie.

During Brad's process, he would ask me many of the study questions on the naturalization test he would be required to pass before becoming a citizen. I've linked to the test questions and I challenge all of you to take the test without looking at the answers. I will admit I got many wrong - who new the first amendment granted 5 freedoms? I thought it was just three.
