All dressed up and ready for church...My mom sent them their "furst" Easter dresses that my dad called "Petunia Pig" dresses! They looked so cute on Sunday, everybody at the Mexican church we went to was oohhing and awwing over them in espanol! They lady sitting next to me couldn't stop whispering during mass, "Que linda, que precisosas!" (hilarious!)

A little background on why we went to a Mexican church...My neighbor, Jennifer, took me last Sunday to this little church in a little town nearby called Stratford...I think I wrote about it last week...anyways, its way out in the middle of all the cotton/corn/tomato/etc. fields and its basically where all the farm workers live and its totally like crossing the border into Mexico...its a darling little church, all the people pretty much walk to it since the town is so small and they do the service in Spanish and a little ENglish...we went there cause its actually not that far from our house and we figured the church in Lemoore would be PACKED...its definitely a cultural experience...the music is almost like mariachi-band type musica and the people are wonderful! Some real characters in that church!! Cowboy hats, snakeskin cowboy boots, oh yea, and the ostrich-skin boots too! Slick back hair into low ponytails...and those are the men I am talking about! The ladies have HIGH heels on and lots of gold necklaces! It makes church quite an experience!
