In 1862 ...the French being "french" and all bullylike (showing up with more power and twice as many guys) got their butts handed to them by Mexico .....Kinda sad to think with this epidemic happening down there that they may have to cut back on celebrating.
We have been celebrating it too cuz ...well why not... what's not to like... mexican food, dance and song...... woohoo Im there..plus it signifies the last time that an army from another continent invaded the americas. so dust off the maracas....wear something bright and "La La La" with the rest of us......any excuse for tequilla shots is alright with me!
hey dont throw any of the party favors away .......cuz September 16th is Mexico's Independence Day and you can break them out then too!
