Last Saturday, my next door widow Mexican neighbor asked if we wanted to go to her niece's quinceanera party, and by the way, she needed a ride too. So of course we went. We were basically the only Caucasians there. It was really fun; dancing, free food, and fun music.
A quinceanera is the 15th birthday for Mexican girls and it is a huge party. These guys spent more money than we did on our wedding.
We spent most the time making sure Aliza did not go run off. She did escape us once and went right in the middle of the festive dancers that were being filmed. Oops. Sorry. But Jen ran and got her.
We only spent about 90 minutes there and it was great to learn more about Mexican culture, since probably 20% of the population of where we live are Mexican.

I love Aliza's dancing/jumping!
Did they serve Tres Leche Cake? I LOVE that stuff!! I was introduced to it at a Hispanic baby baptism several years ago and I have been in love ever since!
we didn't stick around for the cake, but I bet it was yummy :)
The girls look like they had a blast!
Aliza is going to be a dancer for sure. She just can't stop dancing! And she can twirl!
