Cinco de Mayo

We recently celebrated Cinco de Mayo. Many friends helped us to celebrate. I was going to put pictures of them here, but Daddy only took 5 pictures that day. He is usually quite the shutterbug. It must have been the margaritas.

It was a lot of fun.

Many people think Cinco de Mayo is Mexican Independence Day, but it is really a commemoration of the Battle of Puebla. We did lots of commemorating.


Mommy and Grammy made a delicious cake in the tri-colors of Mexico.



Joe tried to get me to drink some Mexican beer, but Mommy wouldn't let me. Dos Equis is my favorite. We also had some yummy margaritas and Krista made a most delicious sangria.



Abby was the youngest partier. She slept a lot. But she sure looked cute doing it.


The siesta at the fiesta.



And this beautiful pinata came courtesy of Rosie. She stuffed it full of candy, but Daddy forgot to break it open. It must have been the margaritas.

Happy Cinco de Mayo.
