Trinidad Soca Warriors

The Trinidad and Tobago soccer team made it into the World Cup this year for the first time....so the main theme of the parade was the T & T Soca Warriors!!!

My ex husband is from Trinidad, so my 3 oldest children are partly Trinidadian! I spent 12 years around the culture and loved it all....especially the foods.....Chana Doubles mmmmmm and chicken roti...............sugar cake......Sea Moss YUM!!! I think it's really important that my children grow up knowing about their Fathers country, the foods, music and traditions............I'm really glad we made it to the carnival.................and it was so nice standing next to some Trinidadians in the crowd and listening to their sing-song voices...I whispered to the children how the ladies sounded just like Grandma Patsy.................Christopher spent the whole parade dancing and was even out in the road dancing too.............Susie was just in awe of the costumes......so the girls want to make crowns and costumes one day this week................
