Happy birthday Juan

Yesterday, (Sunday, actually) was our cousin Juan’s birthday. Everyone celebrated, con gusto, on Saturday, however. And I mean everyone.

Several family members come from an hour, or so, away, but there are several that live here “in town”, or close enough to be considered in town.

One cousin, Armando by name, comes From a bit farther than an hour, and brought a huge vat of grilled goat, called cabrito, along with a huge vat of consommé de barbacoa, a very rich, Delicious, but greasy soup. Our contribution to the event was, for the most part, all of the disposables, several different refrescos, (pops), plus a huge tres leches cake.

Here are a few of the 75+ pictures I took throughout the afternoon. (I never said they were good photos).

This picture is of the two ping pong tables, end to end, with about 10 people on each of the long ends, and 2-4 people on the short ends.
This is in their garage, which, when none of out totes are there, holds 6 cars, 2 side by side, and 3 deep.
Here are a few of the family members that I have mentioned in prior posts. From L to R:
Pepe, Arturo, (son #2), Pepe(ito), (son #1), and Paty. In front is Our cousin, Juan, the celebrant.

Many people came, and went, throughout the day, and I was unable to get photos of everyone. As in any family gathering, there were a few that were unable to make it, for personal reasons, but those that were able to come, had a great time.

Happy birthday Juan! Many, many more.
