One thing I like about living in Mexico is that I get to ignore most US holidays. I am not an expat that tries to recreate my origin country in Mexico. No backyard barbecue dressed in the american flag for us.
My MIL loves Christmas for the presents of course, so I don’t get to skate past that one. We do manage to keep the decorations and gift giving to a minimum.
Such was not the case at the Fourth of July bash that we attended with our kids in Northern California. The rocking event put on by their friends is in its twenty-third year. The party spills out from the garage, to the driveway and into the street. Food was catered, a disc jockey blasted and kids had much to entertain them.



All in all a good time was had. The Tortas however were in bed before the fireworks 🎆 went off. Thank God for Uber.
