Cinco de Mayo Celebration

I know this is a little late, considering it's over a month past due, but I thought I would still share some pictures from the fun family time we had. We get together with my side of the family, at least the ones still here in Utah, nearly every month to celebrate birthdays, a holiday or just to enjoy some good company and good food.

Last month we got together to celebrate Cinco de Mayo at my sister's house. We had yummy Mexican-style fare for dinner and dessert and then went over to a nearby park to let the kids hit a pinata. It was lots of fun to watch the kids try to hit the pinata. The little ones got so excited just to hit it. Uncle Ben (Juli's Ben) made the older kids work hard to get a hit by pulling the string up and down, thus lowering and raising the pinata with every swing. When the pinata finally broke, it was a mad dash for the booty!
