So Much Cake!

Eat the donut on the string.
The Father's Day celebration and a birthday party made for a very exciting day at school! They did pretty much the same show for the dads as they did for the moms last month. They also added in some games with the dads.










My favorite part is when the boys drop at the end and the girls step on them :P
The show was adorable, but Guillermo wanted the English teachers to do something in the show. Awesome! We have no talents! So last night we picked a music video, learned the dance, and danced it for the dads and kids today. It was hilarious. We made fools of ourselves, but it was fun and they loved it.

Feel free to watch us dance like monkeys on crack. Skip the first 45 seconds. It took a while to get started, and I don't know how to edit videos. Enjoy!
We are amazing dancers! Pretty impressive for learning it the night before right? 

Well then we were fed tamales filled with mole verde (my fav), fruit salad, and cake! Delicioso. 

Then the fathers left. Most of them took their kids with them. We normally have around 20 students, but today we had 8. And they still wanted us to teach! The Spanish teachers didn't even teach. So we sort of taught, but mostly just played with the kids. It was a pretty fun day.

Do you love our awesome craft? They remind me of the poor unfortunate souls in The Little Mermaid. Except more colorful!


The kids love musical chairs.



Then Juan Pablo's mom came. We know her well because we see her at zumba. So she brought cake and stuff and we had a little birthday party for him. The cake was so delicious! It was chocolate and caramel with nuts on it. They have good cake here, but I hadn't had any chocolate cake yet. It was a fun little party. Then we taught our afternoon classes. Once again, normally 20 kids, but a whopping 9 today. So we sorta taught and played games. Fun, relaxing day! I love playing with the kids, but teaching English is so not nearly as fun!  





Sam had the camera, and I don't think she quite understood how to look through the lens, so she cut a lot of people out...

Then we went to the restaurant for lunch after school. And they gave us cake for dessert! Chocolate cake! Normally they give us Jello or fruit. But today we finally got cake! So I kind of got a cake overload today, but I don't even care. By the way, if you thought that Utah was the Jello Everything capital, you are so wrong! Pachuca is the Jello capital. They have it in salads, for dessert, snacks, everything! Which is really annoying because I don't like Jello... Oh well. So I was definitely grateful for the cake today!

Felicidades Papa!!
