Cookie and the jump rope team performed at the International Community Festival at the grassy park in our neighborhood.
The jump rope team kicked off the festival with the very first performance after the opening ceremony from the NM Color Guards with the flags and pledge.
The International Community Day has been a neighborhood tradition since 2006. Every year Bernalillo County celebrates the diversity and cultures of District 3 residents through music, food, arts and craft activities, demonstrations, and family entertainment.
Beside the talents of the jump rope performance, we were also treated to a free concerto from the New Mexico Philharmonic and local music from Severo y Grupo Fuego.

Once again the jump rope team did a great job!
Special thanks to Coach Jarvis (white shirt) and Coach Cicarrillo for their dedication to the jump rope team.

After the show was over we perused the various booths.
There we found the Music Guild of New Mexico.
They support musical organizations, educate and build community relationships through music.
The girls brushed up on some music history; while learning some tones and notes from different musical instruments.

| Sweetheart loved the seeded sounds of the maracas |
 |
| "Mommy, would you care to hear Saint Saens Intro and Rondo Capriccioso." |
Afterwards we headed to the crafting station to make bird feeders and art projects.
 |
| A pine cone, a string, some peanut butter and birdseeds made a fine natural bird feeder |
 |
| Princess pressed some leaves and glitter between wax paper for a stained glass effect window art. |
 |
| Cookie opted for some art on her face instead...... |
We've seen this troupe before at the JCC.
They're a family of vaudeville Renaissance style entertainers known as Clan Tynker. After standing there for a while, I realized they weren't part of the International Community Day. I think they were there for a birthday party. Although that didn't stop many from watching. Our apologies, 'birthday person' for stopping but also thank you for sharing Clan Tynker with us.
