What an honor!
We have made friends with the owners of the Fiesta Vallarta restaurant in our town of Delta.
Our grandson also plays soccer with one of the owners sons…this boy has a wonderful ‘leg’ he can kick the soccer ball from half-court right into the goal…stunning for a 6th grader.
On Sunday we were invited, along with Bladen and his family, to Felipe’s 12th birthday party!
What a hoot! We had a great time! The food was outstanding! (I really want to learn how to cook true Mexican Food) Maria had made posole with chicken and lots of yummy additions to the soup. Two cakes, one chocolate and one tres leche cake!
Our two granddaughters were asked to help break the pinata…they are gracious people to include us one and all.
I tried to speak Spanish, very shyly I might add…causing good-nature laughs and lots of help to say it right.
We had a small sprinkle or rain with some thunder then the storm left going on to other parts unknown.
What an honor to be considered ‘friends enough’ to be invited to a special party.
Your most humble friend, ¡gracias,
Linda

What fun! I wish I could transport myself there and enjoy some real Mexican food. People here have NO IDEA what Mexican food tastes like and it is very depressing. I have a friend in Grand Junction that sends me supplies from the Mexican grocery there. Yay!

That’s how kids’ parties are in my neighborhood, too. We use the kids to translate and they do a great job. One thing I love about the Mexican kids is they all come up and introduce themselves and shake our hands. Carnitas are (is?) my favorite.
