A Very Special Comida for the Valles Elders

We always sing Happy Birthday in Spanish first and then in English for those missionaries with birthdays. This time we sang for Elder Lewis, Elder Pratt, Elder McHargue and Elder Olivas.
These are the sisters who prepared the delicious lunch for us. They came dressed up and, as your can see below, they decorated the tables beautifully.
There was a large dish of fresh fruit in the middle of each table and dishes of Mexican candies for dessert. When the dividers were opened from the chapel, the elders saw this beautiful setting. It's not often they get this type of thing. They always seem more polite when this happens.
Starting at left front: Elder Ochoa, Elder McHargue, Elder Salinas, Elder Villanueva, Elder Pratt, Elder Lewis, and Elder Melchor.

That is a lot of food. Those sweet sisters must have been preparing for hours. The elders look so happy! I love hearing you speak Spanish. Video more of that.
