cinco de mayo...

I never did get around to posting about mine and Trevor's Cinco De Mayo. It is pretty funny how the day went about because we weren't planning on doing anything special for Cinco De Mayo. Saturday Trevor told me he had bought some carne asada meat for our Sunday dinner and asked what I thought would go good with it. We have been trying to eat healthier so I figured we could skip the tortillas and just do some sides of guacamole and beans.

Sunday morning we both realized that we had accidently planned a meal that was very fitting for Cinco De Mayo without even realizing it. Trevor decided he wanted to grill the cane asada, so we pulled out a little portable grill we have for camping etc. But where to grill? The park was packed with people so we decided to put the Bronco to use and just grilled it up in our apartment parking lot in the back of the Bronco. We are classy people I tell you, classy.

It was such a beautiful day, and it was fun to get outside, even if our neighbors were wondering what the heck we were doing! :) I love that the weather is finally turning into summer here in Utah. Sandals, flavored ice, and sunshine here we come!
