Micheal's Birthday

              Today is my younger brothers birthday. Hehehehe.....  I have to help make a monkey cake for him. He really likes monkey's.
             For his birthday we do a Pasada, because we have absolutely no connection to Spain or Mexico.  But  we more or less follow the traditional Christmas idea of Mary and Joseph looking for an inn, until they finally find a place and destroy a piñata. It is a pretty good Christmas tradition, it is a good way to commemorate the searching and the anticipation that advent is supposed to convey.  Although we do the entire party in one night and not celebrate for something like nine nights.
