I am a UK citizen Today

After the 4 years all together of fighting with the Italian consulate in Chicago, in a short 30 minute ceremony in the Wrigley building in downtown Chicago, I became a UK citizen.  Why I didn't do this back in 2005, besides the point.  The thousands of miles I have flown back and forth to Florence, I finally have a reason to stay, live and work.  Here are some pictures of this momentous day in my life.


Before the blessed event

Signing of the papers, with my Mom by my side.  Thanks my Mom!

My Dad and I

Officially a UK citizen with Eileen, Vice Consul and Peter Asst. Consul

Drinking my FAVorite beer Hoegaarden, eating fish 'n chips at a nice English Pub called Elephants & Castle on State St  is a perfect way to end the most memorable day EVER! 

Thanks to my Mom and Dad for putting up with me all these years. 

Florence here I COME!!!!

a presto amici!!
