May 10th, Mother's Day party!

Today I did what I usually do - sleep alot, read, and walk. The morning was made up of going out to eat breakfast with Katie, reading for hours on the porch, and going to the beach on an ATV with Noe around 3pm. I'm definately feel like I'm on vacation. In fact, I sort of wish it wasn't this intense of a vacation, but I'm accepting the life style.
The evening was great. I read a little bit more and then showered and dressed up for the Mother's Day fiesta that was to take place. There was a live band coming to play for an hour, a huge feast, and wonderful company (but that's to always be expected). Lazaro drove to Poza Rica that morning to pick up his mother, his god mother and her husband, and his sister, Carmela. I love her. I met her in February, and she was one of the sweetest people I'd ever met. Most of the guests were older, so the dancing part of the night didn't really happen, but it was entertaining and fun regardless. After the band left, one of Irma and Fernando's friends showed up at the gate. He was carrying a guitar and wanted to come in and play and talk. Lazaro, of course, got hold of that guitar and serenaded everyone for another hour.

Around 9.30 was when the mothers and Laz's sister decided it was time to leave. They were driving back to Poza Rica and didn't want to get home too late. When they left, I could do anything I wanted to. I ended up talking to Lazaro for a little while and life and other deep conversations. The man is great at really connecting with his friends too which makes just talking awesome. Him and Fernando are adorable together too, and seeing them spend time with each other warms my heart. Laz always talks about Fernando is his best friend, so it's good to see them talking. Katie was in bed before I was, and was sleeping by the time I got back. It was about 1am and I couldnt fall asleep. SO what did I do? I watched Little Miss Sunshine. I love that movie.
