This spring, my girls’ dance troup, the Micro-Monteros, who dance with the Maru Montero Dance Company, have gotten to perform in a number of places, including the rooftop of Univision, right across the street from the Capitol. Looking forward to Cinco de Mayo tomorrow, I wanted to re-post our 2011 Cinco de Mayo photos from last year in celebration of the upcoming event this Saturday on the Mall, at the Sylvan Theater near the Washington Monument. My girls will be dancing at noon and 1:45 with the MicroMonteros–there will also be crafts and games and horses and all sorts of things.

Also last year, I wrote about why and how I’ve come to love the Zapateado dancing my girls perform with the Maru Montero Dance Company.

We’d love to see you there –
