Around Abuelita's House

2008.11.27
and that time is when the clock broke.

my mom's family portrait!! i think it's cute!

I think it's a professional sketch of my Grandpa back in the day

We wait for the dinner...

in the dining room- decorative plate of cute little Mexican kids dancing folklorico

Large canvas-type painting

Banner to celebrate!

special order by Mom

what Mom just wanted to say is that she loves us all very much and what i want to say is that i also love her SO much

Now, a last game of Munchkin before the dinner begins!

Alright, so i never say "abuelita" unless i'm actually addressing my grandmother but i felt i had to put it. Maybe it's the hispanic spanglish showing up or the urge to act "ethnic" (because I have never heard anybody repeat themselves so much by saying things first in spanish and then again in english) like they do in some tv shows.
tsk tsk, that's stereotyping~

Well all that aside, We went to grandma's house to share our giving of thanks on the lovely Mexican side of our family (seeing as Mexico gives absolutely no thanks for anything because they don't have such a holiday--- Juuust Kidding!)
Mom made delicious turkey and we had delightful biscuits and yummy corn and ohhh the pies!
Everybody was happy and (in case you didn't notice) i failed to take pictures of it all. I'm sorry, i was kinda shy around my extended family-- especially because i had to put the Flash on otherwise the pictures came out super blurry...

yessi222 aww I miss Weli!

I called you guys earlier on the video phone and no one answered =(

And now I want to call you again BUT Ben is hogging the desk and won't let me call =(

And you capitalized a few words in your narration that caught my attention... please explain "Just Kidding" and "Flash"

Anyway, I get the being shy part, I totally still am too.

Sooo, mom went and got a banner made?! For some reason I find that wildly histerical. I guess I can't say they don't celebrate Thanksgiving Day anymore (like I've been telling everyone all these years)... bah
