Luchadors ?

I decided these photos deserved a blog entry all by themselves. Let me explain. My brother Danny is living in Mexico City and decided that he would eclipse all the other presents given this Christmas by providing these lovely "nacho libre" masks for all the boys. That's right, our Christmas morning was spent with the Dads scaring their toddlers by wearing these lovely masks. They are pretty scarey, if you ask me.

Well, on Christmas night the "boys" were feeling a little restless, and it was dumping snow out, so they decided to wear their masks while "skiing" behind a car. The following photos were taken after their little escapade, and yes, they wore their masks the whole time and were not arrested. I initially promised not to publish these on the blog, but as their elder sister and wife, respecitvely, I just can't resist. How often do you get a few twenty-somethings (and, ahem, one thirty-something) acting like High School idiots? Watch out Jack Black!








Before they left:

Can you tell which one is which? My three youngest brothers are Joe, Danny and Sam. Luckily for Chris, they are all pretty white, so even his pale skin doesn't stand out so much. Personally, I think the oldest guy still looks the best -- but then, again, I am very biased.

OH.MY.GOODNESS! I came here from Lauren's blog and I'm thinking some of these need to be posted in Dan's office here at the embassy....I'm sure my husband could find a few locations for them! So funny! I would have never guessed Dan would do something like this...then again, when brothers get together (I have 3 boys of my own so I am in for it!)
