Quinceanera

We went to Gisela's 15th birthday party (Quinceanera) lastnight. It was a lot of fun. Aunt Lucia and Uncle Paul rented a hall in East Cleveland. The room was decorated with pink roses and pink napkins which matched Gisela's beautiful pink strapless dress. Many family members and Gisela's friends were in attendance. The traditional Quinceanera ceremony consists of the parents giving their daughter a pair of 'glass' slippers, a tiara and a ring. We had a very yummy buffet dinner with a variety of salad, meat, potatoes and some Chinese selections. The cake was beautiful and incredibly delicious.

We had a great time! What a cool, but expensive, tradition!
