The ward had a talent show last friday. It was so fun! The ward has a lot of talent, almost every church group participated. There was singing, dancing and piano & violin playing, The Young Women did a fun skit , they hit the table and plastic cups to make a rythm that was peculiar. The Young Men also did a skit called Synchronized swimming, it was very funny the boys dressed up in their swimming suits. Someone from the Elders Quorum played an electric guitar, it was loud but it was good! Even the high priests did a dance, I have to confess I wasn't sure if one of the abuelitos would fall or get a heart attack. At the end, it was all good we didn't have to call 911. There was also a mini man show, that was really funny as well. The little kid did a great job with his facial expressions. I, of course wanted to dance a native peruvian dance (marinera)with Joe but he totally refused. I even told him love could do anything but it didn't matter, oh well. I heard that one of the sisters from Brasil was dancing the samba and I asked her if I could dance with her and then another latina joined the dance. We danced and represented our countries (Brasil, Costa Rica, Peru) even though we were all dancing samba. Oh yeah, a funny note on the dance is that when each of us had her turn to dance a brother would say on the microphone the name of the country and lift up the corresponding flag. It was my turn and he said Mexico and showed my peruvian flag. I was a little confused after he announced Mexico but I continued dancing, a minute later he apologized and said Peru. How funny is that! From now on I guess I am half mexican and half peruvian in the ward. I love my home ward!
