Welcome Back, Welcome Back, Welcome Back

On Saturday we had a welcome home party for my cousin. Sgt. Gabriel Salazar. We were all so happy to have him home safe and sound.


We are so proud of you Mijo!
As a tribute to our fallen Solider Roman, my cousin in full uniform presented my Tia and Tio the flag that hung over his base in Iraq. It was an amazing tribute.
Tequila shots in honor of our hero!
Is it obvious she is mine?
High Five!
Then there was a pretty awesome cake fight!

    Hello Elissa! I'm so glad that your cousin made it home safely from Iraq. Tell him that Seane-Anna, the niece of a Vietnam-era Marine, thanks him for his service. Semper Fi!

    Marines & Tequila shots? My kinda party.

    That's an awesome way to welcome home one cousin and to honor another!
