48 Hrs in Our Hectic Life

Several women in our ward teach English to a few Mexican women and they all decided they wanted to have a big Cinco DE Mayo fiesta. That's where Eric and I come into the picture... Friday morning, the cooking began...

Friday night, the party began! (That's TOTALLY an appropriate place for an exclamation mark)

We had homemade beans (though I was told by several Mexican women that night that, "Mexicans don't eat beans!"), rice, enchiladas, nachos, Mexican Flan...it was all delicious. We also had a few pinatas, Maracas, Sombreros, a Mexican flag, the entire ward, Mexican Mariachi music and we were ready to party. The next morning we drove down to South Jordan, dropped Max off at the Christensens (THANK YOU JAY & LINDA!~ again, TOTALLY appropriate use of the exclamation mark) and went to do a session at the South Jordan Temple. Since we barely made the last session, we grabbed some dinner and headed back to Jay & Linda's. After attending church with them, we headed back up to Evanston for a pit B-B-Q. As the food was being prepared, Dylan and I had a little game of ping pong. You've gotta love the intensity on my face.

Then to the pit we went...it's probably one of my favorite things about the weather getting warmer...s'mores at the pit.
