Birthday Party a la Mexicana

We had driven by it almost every day for 6 months. Wondered what exactly was inside it. What would make it so fun. Finally, we were invited to a party to get in...

 

Yupiiland!!!

Saturday, September 24th Eny, one of the girls from the Ranch, was having a birthday party. There is a couple here in Mazatlan, trying to adopt her. She's been such a big part of their lives for years, so they threw her a party like she was theirs already. The party was held at Yupiiland. What exactly is inside Yupiiland? 

Princesses, play structures, face painting, balloons, music, dancing, piñatas... oh, and tacos.

 Brenda, showing off her facepainting.

 Ian making some kids laugh.

It was really hot (no air conditioning) but fun to experience a typical Mexican child's birthday party. Now we know what Yupiiland is like, and so do you!
