Will you truly CELEBRATE the USA? Immigrant Family Celebrates First July 4th as U.S. Citizens

Great video from YouTube about an immigrant family's first 4th of July as US citizens:

Watch the story of the Bueno family, who rejoice in celebrating the 4th of July for the first time as citizens- 20 years after first immigrating to the U.S. "This is a dream come true...this is what I saw in the movies", said father Eduardo Bueno. Decked out in red, white and blue while grilling hot dogs, it is obvious the family patriarch is relishing the moment and what it means for his entire family. "To know that my Dad wanted something better for us means he really cared about us and loves us alot" daughter Edilaine Bueno explained. Danny Bueno added,"It just kind of hit me...I have more rights, more things I can do now."
