Mexican Festivities...

This weekend saw Karl and I host our very first charity fundraiser and the theme of the night was Mexcian....Arriba! Arriba! Ole! Ole! 

The night included a fun-filled mix of Mexican food:

Chili con carne
Smoky pork and black bean tacos
Beef burritos 
Veggie burritos
Warm bean salad
Chicken fajitas
Mexican beef chili
Home made guacamole
Mexican nachos with cheese

and an excellent variety of Mexican drinks:

Margaritas
Tequila slammers
Desperados
Amigos
Some real ale (ok, perhaps more British than Mexican!)

Naturally the Mexican themed entertainment included:

Pin the tail on the donkey
Piñata 
A Mexican themed photo booth 

I'm pleased to say that the night raised £130 for Help the Hospices so a brilliant kick start to our fundraising efforts. Thank you so much to everyone who came along to support us, it was brilliant fun and we both really appreciate you making the effort. Watch this space for future invites! I wonder what the next theme should be...any suggestions?!

Here's a photo tribute to the night: 
















Thank you once again kind supporters or as they say in Mexico: Muchas Gracias!
