So, Mexican Independence Day was on the 16th of September. To celebrate this special occasion and also as our first new house introduction, we had a party on Saturday the 17th! I had a really great time. Thanks to everyone that came.
We had corn on a stick, just like in Nacho Libre. It was Delicious! Who knew a little mayo, cheese, and chili would be so amazing on corn?! Choco also had the fabulous idea of making a beautiful Mexican flag out of watermelon, jicama, and cucumbers.
People brought a variety of salsas and other food and Choco made guacamole. We even had some horchata. Overall, the food was so great. We also made a beautiful pinata, in the shape of a house. It was fun to sing the pinata song (or pretend to sing the words since it is in Spanish :) and watch everyone take a wack at it. Charades followed, boys vs. girls. It got dark quite early, so we had to bring a couple lamps out. But we had a really good time! Viva Mexico!
