On Saturday March 27, 2010 the family celebrated our uncle's birthday. His name is Jose Adame Palacios. The celebration took place in San Luis Rio Colorado Sonora, Mexico. We had carne asada, chicken, and avocado salad. Typical Mexican celebration. It had been a while since the family got together in Mexico. I enjoyed the night. I am grateful for my family. Enjoy the pictures and slide show.

Time Capsule Opening

On March 13, 2010 I had the privilege to see my first ever time capsule opening. It took place in Somerton, Arizona, my hometown.

In 1985 vice Mayor Jay Vance, and council members buried a time capsule next to the old city of Somerton police department. It was very exciting to see what the time capsule contained. It had magazines from 1985, letters of students, and pictures. Twenty-five years of history. In October of this year, the city of Somerton will bury another time capsule. The community will have the opportunity to put something in it. I am thinking of something unique and interesting to put in, and hoping that in twenty-five years I can have the privilege to see it happen again.

Somerton Greater Days Parade 2010

On March 13, 2010, I went for the first time in my life to the Somerton, Arizona greater days parade. It was awesome! I went because of my mother, she was going to be with her class and had a float of Mardi Gras theme! The parade had the school bands, old classic cars, many floats, and clubs. I had a very good time!

Happy Birthday to Mrs. Lucia

Today, March 2ND 2010 is the birthday of my mother-in-law Mrs. Lucia. On Saturday we celebrated with her at Cira's house, her daughter. We had a good time. We had carne asada and a pineapple upside down cake that Lucy made. It was a nice night. It rained a little, but that didn't stop us. Enjoy this picture I'm posting of her. Very natural. Feliz Cumpleaños!
