[ESP | ENG] Empiezan las preposadas en casa de mis abuelos

En el pueblo donde viven mis abuelos se empiezan a organizar los que es el novenario a la virgen de Guadalupe o lo que decimos de forma coloquial en la familia, las preposadas.

In the town where my grandparents live, the novenario to the Virgin of Guadalupe or what we say colloquially in the family, the "pre-posadas", are beginning to be organized.

Como tal se le hacen nueve misas a la virgen y luego se hace un recorrido por todo el pueblo hasta llegar a la casa anfitriona donde se quedara el altar de la propia Virgen.

As such, nine masses are said to the Virgin and then a tour is made throughout the town until arriving at the host house where the altar of the Virgin herself will be placed.

Después de las oraciones se empieza a hacer un convivió donde se reparte pan dulce, tamales, atole y ponche. A mi abuela le toco repartir el ponche, por lo que la gente empieza a hacer fila alrededor de los que van repartiendo la comida y así poder platicar con cada uno de los vecinos de la localidad por un rato.

After the prayers, a social gathering begins where sweet bread, tamales, atole and punch are distributed. My grandmother had to distribute the punch, so people start to line up around those who are distributing the food and thus be able to talk with each of the neighbors of the town for a while.

En el pueblo esto lo consideran de forma coloquial como una preposada, ya que las posadas como tal del pueblo se hacen de la misma manera, solo que en vez de ser un rezo a la virgen de Guadalupe se hace como representación al recorrido que hizo Jose y María cuando buscaban "posada" para poder dar a luz a quien sería Jesucristo. Y al mismo tiempo todo lo que se reparte en el pueblo se hace todavía mucho mas grande que incluso gente de otros pueblos se acercan para participar en estos eventos.

In the town this is considered colloquially as a "preposada", since the posadas as such in the town are done in the same way, only instead of being a prayer to the Virgin of Guadalupe is done as a representation of the journey that Joseph and Mary made when they were looking for "posada" to give birth to who would be Jesus Christ. And at the same time everything that is distributed in the town becomes so much bigger that even people from other towns come to participate in these events.

En esta foto podemos ver a mi madre, a mi abuela, algunos otros familiares, a @lumpymoon y a mi disfrutando de nuestro ponche y alimentos que otras personas nos compartieron durante la celebración, en el momento en que ya también estábamos recogiendo todo, pues con el frío que había rápidamente la gente se empezó a movilizar para sus casas a resguardarse. Ahora estoy esperando que lleguen las posadas grandes para que pueda recibir mucha mas comida jaja.

In this picture we can see my mother, my grandmother, some other family members, @lumpymoon and me enjoying our punch and food that other people shared with us during the celebration, at the moment when we were also gathering everything, because with the cold weather people started to move to their homes to take shelter. Now I am waiting for the big posadas to arrive so I can receive much more food haha.

Antes de terminar este post quiero mostrarles unas fotos de como empezaron a poner piñatas en la plaza del pueblo. Estas piñatas fueron creadas a mano, al principio pensaba que solo harían pocas, pero fácilmente colocaron como unas 30 piñatas, tal vez un poco mas.

Before I finish this post I want to show you some pictures of how they started putting piñatas in the town square. These piñatas were created by hand, at first I thought they would only make a few, but they easily placed about 30 piñatas, maybe a little more.
