Kirtlyn's American party in Mexico

Kirtlyn's sexto cumpleanos! No clowns, no jumping toys... just a park, pizza, and Ice cream cake. Very American. We had a great time with our friends: Tami, Christian, Anni, and Danni(L-R). Plus a couple of friends from school.

She got some nice hugs from all of the kids, just for her birthday!
The girls had a great time playing together for the first time outside of school.
Kirtlyn wanted to open her presents at the party, that is what she is use to. I was nervous about this because I have never been to a party in Mexico when presents were opened. They never seem to do that. I was assured that it is fine to open presents, it is just so busy at a normal fiesta that they do not find the time. Everyone enjoyed clapping and cheering for her new gifts.
Here are two of her four favorite girls from school. Lia is in the orange, she tries to use as much English as she can to talk to Kirtlyn. Than Pau (bow) in the white, one of three Pau's in her class. While Kirtlyn was gone, Pau kept going to school saying, Kirtlyn just has to be back today. She really wanted to see her again!
We got her a DQ Ice cream cake. This is not something I have ever seen at a party here. I am pretty sure jello molds are the most popular party desert.
Everyone wanted to see all of her new toys, they are just gathered around trying to get a chance to play!
One of the Barbie toys she got was a spa, they have been playing with it ever since.
Here is the doll her friend Lia gave her, I know you will be impressed when I tell you, little Thomas took this picture!
