We've been celebrating Matt's birthday the past two days. Yesterday, we really had a blast as he wanted carne asada(thin grilled steak) All of Matt's close friends are nationals so we were doing this right! The only thing we forgot were the frijoles(beans)...Matt forgot & I kept thinking something was missing until someone mentioned that this was just exactly how we do things(Mexican Style) except we have frijoles! oops ;o)
Hope you enjoy the pictures of his celebration:
