Fiesta!

cinco de mayo 2009 mavity style

The day started out with each of us choosing our *mexican names for the day. Even in all my years of *crossing the border for spring break, my vocabulary and expansion of name ideas was quite small. Embarrassing, I know. So we ended up with *Jorge (me), *Gerrardo(Blake),

*Jose (Raegan), *Blanca (Sarah) and *Xavier (Jaxon). The kids enjoyed getting to know their altar egos, even if just for the day. Later, we joined *Ricardo (Rachel) and *Muchas Glacias (Laura) for an *el dippo in el poolo. The *agua was still a bit *el frigo, but the *ninas still had a *bueno time-o. After picking up *Gerrardo from *escuela we went to *la mercado for *el groceries for *la fiesta! We made *tacos y frijoles, chips, guacamole, salsa, and even *mexicana soda.

Yum, Yum Yum, delicioso!After dinner, the family went for a swim, including * Jacobo, the papa. *Xavier even went for his first *dippo en el poolo. Sad baby at first, but soon decided he liked it *mucho. What a a handsome baby! Even found these beauties at the pool we visited! *This in no way is intended to be offensive! C'mon, we actually celebrated the holiday which is more than I can say for April Fool's Day or St. Patrick's Day!
