St. Patty`s Day in Mexico

So Happy St. Patty`s day. And no it is not celebrated here in Saltillo but in Monterrey yes it is celebrated. So in the spirit of St. Patty I am going to teach my music class about music from Ireland. Looking forward to the day. The weather is great the boys are doing well minus the fact they never want to sleep at night. And this Friday we are celebrating the feast of Saint Joseph with a festival at school and a mini-olimpics in the afternoon. It should be tons of fun for all of us. I am looking forward to the kids not having to do homework and getting to play all afternoon. Then we are ending the night with mass and dinner. I will keep you all posted.

So this last weekend was a long weekend and it was great I went to a rodeo but it was really old school and Mexican and awesome. The men all had their old school outfits with huge sombreros and big saddles. I have been trying to experience as much of the culture here that I can in these my last few months. Which I cannot believe that this month is halfway over and then I get vacation which is much needed. So I have been eating nothing but Mexican and I am so over it, so if you want to send any food from the US it will be greatly appreciated. Hope you all have a great and safe St. Patty`s day, have a green beer for me!
