Cinco de Mayo Celebration

This past Wednesday at Cross and Crown we had a little party.  We were celebrating Cinco de Mayo.  If you have been to Cross and Crown before you are aware that a large percentage of the individuals we serve come from hispanic/latino families.  Due to this fact we decided we would celebrate a day that many of across the United States already celebrate, but for different reasons.  If you are unfamiliar with what Cinco de Mayo really is I suggest you check it out here - What is Cinco de Mayo?

We had a great time.  We had pizza, chips, Oreos, cokes and margaritas!  Check out the picture below of Clyde... despite the way it looks, I promise, it was only ice, water and the margarita mix, nothing else.  We started off the celebration at 10:30 with several of the ladies from the neighborhood singing the Mexican national anthem, followed up by a time of prayer and then the festivities began.

It was a great time and I look forward to doing it again next year already.  Enjoy the pics (all the good ones were from Ron's phone, thanks Ron) and sorry for the poor quality of video but at least you can hear it, right? Here's the video... Mexican National Anthem
