Happy Cinco de Mayo!

When I did some research yesterday and found out that Cinco de Mayo is a celebration for Mexico winning a war against France, I was not quite as excited to celebrate it as I have been in the past. But hey- any excuse for a margarita is a good holiday for me! In honor of this Mexican day of festivities, we had our own Mexican-inspired morning.

We made Mexican eggs for breakfast

We made tissue paper flowers from used tissue paper (hence the wrinkles)....

Which inspired us to dance...

And we made chili peppers to decorate our holiday tree (we had to take the picture outside because the lighting in our house in horrible).

I hope that festivities will continue after I am done with work tonight with a yummy margarita from the taqueria down the street.
