This is Pablo. He fried all of our fish for us. We had 30+ people for our Fish Fry.
Mary and Jules eating their fish.
This is the first time I have had fish with the head still attached

After we ate, we went to Central Park. The girls made friends with a goose.
This is the kids on bumper cars.
And then on another ride. My kids on one side and some Mexicans on the other had a screaming match during this ride. Kids are so loud!
Here they tried on some masks at the market.
At Walmart (yep, Mexico has them to), all the kids went on this bungee ride. They had so much fun. Mary was the only one able to do a flip.
These are some tacos we ate later that night. I wanted to take everyone out for Carnitas but with it being Good Friday most of the meat serving restaurants were closed.

We went to the temple and it is so beautiful. I have been there 3 times now, hopefully next time we can do a session.
After the temple we went to the open market. This is where you get mobbed by people asking you to buy everything. Most of them are really pushy, but some are really funny. This one guy says as we walk past "Hey, do you need any more junk? I have all the junk you need!" It made me laugh. I have been there several times too and love to haggle with them to get the best price. I bought all of the girls Mexican dresses for Easter for less than $40 total and I got them to throw in matching belts! Remember I have 5 girls!

There is not one stitch of proof that I was even on this trip. So much for being in charge of the camera. The trip was a blast though! It's always entertaining to go visit the Mexican fam...
Oh, and p.s., I really, really wanted to try that bungee ride. (Dumb back.) It was so fun to watch the kids on it, especially the little boy with downsyndrome, who was absolutely thrilled and had the funniest smile and laugh. He was infectious and had us all enjoying it right along with him!
I so wanted to put more pics up but I thought 30 and over an hour of work was enough.... Dartell was there. As was her cuz and the cuz's baby.
Wow, how self centered you are. I saw you in pics, but not Dartell? What kind of friend are you?!? I'll forgive you because that's what kind of friend I am.
Looks like you had a great time, thanks for not bringing the piggy flu back.
I can't wait till you come back!!! Hurry before June!!!
