Thanks be to God for a great day! I am super grateful to so many amazing friends to step up and volunteer to make our Portales Ballet Folklorico Festival such a success.
I could not have done it with out each and everyone involved.
What a fun time being with great friends! My heart is healed from all the sadness I’ve been feeling lately today has been just what the doctor ordered.

I am blessed! I know the day is not even over and we are already brainstorming ideas for the next one.
