It's that time of year again! My mom every years help put together the service and the food for Dia de la Virgen de Guadalupe and of course she volunteers me to help out too (Thanks mom!). The first year we did this I kinda dreaded it until we arrived at church and I saw how well my mom and her group put this together. I've always been proud to be Mexican but it's events like these that make me realize how rich our culture is, Putting a GIANT proud smile on my face. They gather different kinds of dancers and have a service in mostly Spanish (which is a pretty big deal at my church this doesn't happen often) She also has a friend that lets us borrow authentic Mexican dresses that are so colorful and pretty for us to wear. I'm not a very religious person but I really admire how our culture is humble and dedicated to their religion. Plus lets not forget how delicious Authentic Mexican food is, YUM!
My mom already told me she has a dress for me and I'm in charge of taking pictures this year so this should be exciting!(I'm not a photographer, so please don't judge the photos I post later) I'm also excited for later that day because I'm taking my parents out to dinner at a Thai restaurant for my Dad's Birthday and then we're gunna go to see the Nutcracker Ballet! So I'll do my best to post photos of everything. [my apologize for not posting as often as I'd like. Working two jobs and going to school is harder than I thought:( But with Finals almost over I should have some more time write more often;) ]
