I LOVE September! It’s my birthday month…and at my age, I celebrate all year long. It’s time for school to start again…and as a teacher I can’t wait to go school supply shopping. And….it’s Mexican Independence Day! Last night our local Folkloric group performed the folk dances of Mexico for an hour and a half. They have been a group for 5 years, teaching the local youth the dances of the Mexican culture. Las Palomas catered the dinner and it was outstanding! I was particulary thrilled because my darling daughter was the one who announced the dances last night. At one point, she told the story in Spanish while my big boy then read in English. I was so proud! (see thumbnail)

What wonderful photos, Norma! I love the colours plus the action of the dancers. You captured all of them quite beautifully. You have a handsome family!
Elles sont mignonnes avec leurs sourires et leurs costumes, un superbe portrait de groupe, bravo
They are nice with their smiles and their costumes, a superb portrait of group, cheer
Wonderful color! And I love the girls’ faces. Brillant series of photos. And fun seeing your daughter and grandson! 🙂
I LOVE these photos! Hopefully, in a couple of months I will be exposed to their culture from the inside. Can’t wait! 🙂
Norma, these are beautiful. The rich colors show a very rich heritage. I love the composition of the men dancing and the skirts in the other picture. Well done.
Quite a charming group portrait you have here Norma.
