Tamale Making Party

This picture was suppose to be at the end but I accidentally deleted it. Blogger frustrates me so much because you cannot cut and paste pictures!!! Does anyone else know how to do that???

Our dear friends the Chapital family, had a tamale making party in August. Antonio is from Mexico and he and Kim taught us how to make yummy tamales and pica de gallo. They had several Young Women from our ward come and babysit all of the kids while we helped put many many tamales together. They had a lot of dress-up clothes and my girls went crazy. Sophie is of course in a wig..:) and very lady-like. As for Macy.........

Yeah. That's my Macy. :) Several people who came late thought she was a boy. :) She cracks me up.

They had two (very smart!) pinatas so that every kids could hack away at it. Antonio taught them all this song that you are suppose to sing when you hit it but i can't remember it. Something that sounds like dolly, dolly, dolly. Anyone know what i am talking about? It was so fun.

The young women had each kid color their own paper sack that they could use to gather all of the yummy Mexican candy. Here Antonio is teaching them the song.
