Last night I attended my first Quinceanera. The evening was a formal event for one of my Young Women named Krischelle. This is a coming of age ceremony for girls turning 15 in the Latin culture. Her parents are from Mexico and this tradition was continued with Krischelle here in the US. The night started at 8:00 p.m. and went until 12:00. Krischelle was beautiful and it was a very special birthday for her. My friend Angela and I had a blast and got a little punchy at the end. Typically, our bed time is well before 1:00 in the morning. I'm feeling the exhaustion today but had too much fun to complain.
