feliz padre de día

Back at my host families house they were celebrating Father´s Day! I was fed rice with shrimp and potato chips. Later I found out that you put the rice onto the potato chip. It was good, but I didn´t do it properly. Then I was whisked away to the husband´s brother´s house. Here I was greeted by many people my age who wanted to practice English. It was fun to learn about their family and understand what was going on. Three of the woman in the family were pregnant so there was a lot of talk about the new babies coming. I also saw the others eat the rice with the chips and the dessert was like a birthday cake but for all the dads.
The highlight of the night was when all the old people busted out singing karioke. They had a high tech sound system and a lot of songs on the computer to sing. I enjoyed watching. I have a video of my Mama that I will post when I get back. By the way her name is Maria Teresa!
I was exhausted so I got a ride back from their son and daughter in law. I have no idea what time everyone got home because I was sound asleep. I do know the liquor was flowing.
