Beth first preparation for a Belizean Wedding

Saturday August 27, 2011

Today we woke up late because we have been on the go for the past several days. After getting up I did insanity while Beth showered. Then I showered and we got ready to help prepare for tomorrows wedding. However, once  we were headed to the Cucul’s house to help bake Ms. Theresa was coming back and said that everyone is on lunch break so that we should not go back until around 2:30pm. Therefore, I took Beth to Ms. Maria’s house. Beth taught Ms. Maria, Ms. Theresa, Jaline, Stephanie, Mark, and Sebastian how to make guacamole and then Ms. Maria taught Beth how to make flour tortillas. We enjoyed the tradeoff!

After cooking we all ate and then Beth and I headed off to help for the wedding. We helped make decorations made out of crip paper and then we went in the kitchen to help make corn tortillas. Therefore, Beth helped make flour and corn tortillas today and she had her first bowl of caldo.

Then we went back to my house and relax (the House of Prayer was having a church service tonight, but Beth and I decided not to go because she wasn’t feeling her utmost best.) Therefore, we went to bed early and got up early to go to the wedding.
