Thursday was a very special day at Sandiago's Mexican Grill. We served close to 250 foster and adoptive families from the Albuquerque area. The restaurant was full of children's laughter from 11:00 am - 2:00 pm. A lot of really big thank yous go out: Sarah Palmer from CYFD who did a marvelous job of getting out the invitations and taking reservations, High Finance & Sandiago's 30 volunteers and their families who came in on their day off, US Foods for donating much of the food and Sandia Peak Tramway for giving the kids and their families a special rate on the tram.
Two TV stations ran stories about the dinners. The links to those stories are pasted here:

We had six at my table and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their dinner! My daughter had the Cilantro and Pesto Shrimp, and after she ate it she told me that if God cooked, this [Sandiago's] would be His kitchen!
