MLV at Elysian Charter Chili Cook-off

The kids' school has a variety of fundraisers throughout the year to raise money for various activities and necessities. The Annual Chili Cookout has become both a favorite and sometimes a frustration.


Valentina is always prepared to eat!




There were over 25 chili meals to taste and I didn't bring any Tums.
I guess we will just have to pace ourselves.





Ok, so one of the portions that leads to frustration is when Eddie decides to compete and enter the Chili contest. He doesn't do it every year because it is a lot of preparation and work. One year it resulted in a broken broom and a demolished stroller. The kids convinced him to enter again this year and thankfully it wasn't too painful. He also won 2nd place for Judge's Favorite! 
Nice job.


Lucia is always proud of her Papi




Meanwhile, these 2 (V and Annika) got into their own mischief





"Come on, let's go get some more chili!"
