Milestone...

by - July 01, 2011

So, yesterday was Mini's 8th grade graduation...I thought I would be more emotional...but I was cool.  Here are a few pics from the day...

 ...that's Mini in the middle (of course) my niece on the right and my cousin on the left...I heart this pic.

...Me, Mini, her dad and his mother...I have a silly smile...I do that sometimes.

...my niece, again on the left...my bff in the middle and my cousin, again on the right...I heart this pic too.  Everyone looks so pretty.  It was a beautiful day the ceremony was perfect...short and sweet...I think there were only 32 graduates.


...this is Mini's crew...I can imagine her looking back at this pic in 20 years...lol.


...after the ceremony we all went back to my place and I made brunch...chicken and waffles, fruit salad, spinach salad and sangria...It was so nice...after eating we sat on the terrace and drank our red juice...It doesn't get better than that kids.

  2. aah. Everyone looked fab. Mini was workin the purple dress and I loved her hair and the flower in it. She's so fortunate to have both parents, granny and relatives there. What a spirited occasion.

    I think your smile is wonderful. At least you showed your smile and didn't close your eyes(which usually happens to me...lol)

    And, I loved your dress on you. The fabric and color was just right for the occastion.

    The table had a nice colorful vibe. I take it that navy and purples are the school colors.

    Time does fly. Doesn't it?
