We’re finally here!

I kept saying finally! And I mean it every time! It took so long for us to get here… And we’re just so happy it pushed through smoothly regardless of the hardships we’ve all went through and sacrificed. Indeed its a moment to celebrate. As a family, this is our first time. It will always be remembered and cherished. And so, the night is young and Dad just can’t hide his feeling of overwhelming happiness that we had to go out and visit places. This picture is taken by my mom, (that’s why she’s not there!) at downtown Las Vegas. By the way, it was freezing cold when we arrived! We had to drop by a clothing store to get us all warmed up and coated properly. That’s all for now I guess, I’ll be blogging more about what I’ve seen and the places we’ll be going to. Don’t miss out, I can tour you around the city even if you can’t be here. *wink*

It was 13 years ago that Dad left for the States. I was so young then. But I always knew I had a father who is working far away so he could provide us our daily needs, good education, and a good future. And he has been home four times during those long years.

1. Spend my birthday with him.
He was able to make sure he was at my birthday during those visits he made. He even attended some recognition days where he gets the honor of placing the medal ’round my neck! ^_^

2. Have a family vacation to Manila. This one we were able to spend a week I guess (I can’t remember much of it now..) doing the typical things a family would do in a mall.. fun.fun.fun.shop.shop.shop! and a whole lot of eating! :)

3. Be with my dad for the longest time – as a family forever. Here where he is.

McCarran Airport upon arrival. Last picture I took. And the only one that is allowed in this area.

I’ll finally get my dream come true though – partly! And that’s seeing dad for the first time after 6 YEARS!
