Abuela's Dream come true.
The Edmonton Latin Festival (ELF)

Abuela sang songs, danced and made delicious food. Her daughters sang these same songs, danced these same dances and cooked her recipes. At family get togethers Abuela had everyone singing, dancing and eating!! What a wonderful way to spend time with family and friends!!!
So Abuela decided to invite you!
