Wednesday, December 12th is indeed a day to celebrate. Why you ask? We have no idea, but the marching band that began at 5:30am sure thought that today was a fabulous day. Today was such a great day that cotton candy was for sale in the park - and there were firecrackers that were blown up (loud ones, not pretty ones) every 15 minutes as opposed to every 30.
In the afternoon there was a parade - and yes, another marching band.
It is 9:35 now and we can hear a marching across town that is destined to come our way.
In all actuality, today there was some sort of celebration concerning the virgin of Guadelupe. We truly do know much about this celebration except that many marching bands are a definite need for the day. Also, all the little kids dressed up like adults in traditional mayan clothing. The little boys had painted on mustaches, it was pretty cute.
We'll post more pics soon - and a blog worthy of reading, just wanted to share with you the proper way to spend a Wednesday so that you can plan appropriately for next Wednesday in your neighborhood.
For the record, we've heard 10 "bombas" the loud firecrackers while typing this short blog.

Sounds like a fun Wednesday to be, except the 5:30 AM part. Pretty sure ruckus that early in Dallas wouldn't fly. :)
