Cinco De mayo Fiesta Challenge


For this challenge, simply take one to three photo(s)  of this challenge theme
and upload it into the proper folder at our Yahoogroups site.


If you do NOT put your name on the photo in the yahoogroups site, 
I can NOT label it here, 

and you will NOT be eligible to win.

The easiest way to include your name
is to rename your photo with your name
before uploading it to yahoo.

All photos will be added to our www.hittygirls.com website at a later date.
