Keeping Family Close

Just hard to try not get sad when you have not been able to see your mom and dad for almost two months. Even when you think that you are a grown up and you have your own family you still need your other family. It was hard this week not to be able to go to my parents home now that they were finally back from thier two months vacation. I really wanted to go over but with the fires it was hard to go, on the always ‘friendly’ 91 freeway. Even my sister Sara was at my parents home and I really enjoy going over to see her as well, especially because its hard to see her often. I guess I am going to have to wait another week or maybe until Thanksgiving week but I hope that they all can come to my home to finally be able to celebrate a holiday at my OWN home. Guess you have to have your family way to be able to appreciate how luck people are that they can just drive a few minutes and be able to see thier family. Well I hope to be able to see everyone soon and get to spend much laughs and stories together. Love always!

Saturday of culture

We had a wonderful time on Saturday October 11, 2008 at downtown Riverside at the Village Festival. It was the perfect time and the weather could not be any better. Most of my nieces were thier to have fun and get to enjoy a nice day of cultures. We were able to learn about many different cultures. They had many different performances from South Africa, Puerto Rico, China, Mexico and India to name a few.  The food tasting was also very interesting to know how diverse we go about to use the same food but make it our own.  The kids enjoyed making crafts from all the different cultures and they got to learn facts about cultures. I hope that we can all get together again next year and teach our children of other cultures.
