Also, while my mom was here our branch hosted a Latin-American Festival for the entire community. All Latinos, members or not, were invited and really, all people were invited. There was a dinner provided by our branch and then different cultural performances. It was a really fun night and we were SO happy with the turn out! There were hundreds of people there! All the work was worth it!
Here are some dancers from Peru:
Our friend, Juan Vasquez, who works for Ben, from Mexico,sang us a little song:
A cute little lady from our branch also sang a song.
Some youth in our branch performed a Colombian dance:
Our good friends, The Lopez's performed some Mexican songs:
Then, like any Latin fiesta, we ate and we danced! I learned a Mexican line dance.
Taylor found her dance partner, Hermana Anderson. These two are like peas in a pod! :)
Ben found his Young Men out in the hallway...
This is what Jackson thought of the whole thing:
Then grandma got him on the dance floor and he was having a good ol' time! :)
And then Ben found his girlfriend. Or, rather, his girlfriend found him.
And finally I got to dance with this guy!! :) Good thing he still makes me laugh so hard! :)
I love being a part of the Spanish branch!
