New life

So this weekend was obviously labor day weekend. Before coming out to California I rarely celebrated any holiday's. Forth of July was different this year, I got to spend it with my fiance and his family and had a small BBQ. On labor day we spent it at my fiance's aunts house. The majority of his immediate family was there. I had forgotten how it was to be a part of a big family. They are not only good to me be they accepted my son with open arms and adore him. What I still need to adapt to is the different culture. See my fiance's moms side of the family is from Guatemala and his fathers side is from El Salvador. As for me, I'm so used to the Mexican lifestyle and food, the Chicano style, lol...My dad is from Zacatecas and my mom is from East L.A. As for how I'm used to Chicano style, it's from always being around Mexicans from Cd. Juarez.. So I got to get used to a different culture..My fiance got me to finally eat black beans, lol, which at first they looked gross but they are yummy lol. At the BBQ he wanted me to try some "Moronga" blood sausage, eww. I literally told him your crazy, lol...If I can't pronounce it or it looks gross I ain't having it, lol...Sorry my love...Anyways I love my new family and life...
