It's time!
Maria graduated from the University of Phoenix today with her bachelor's in Business Communication! yay! So happy for her.
So I woke up at 6:30 this morning and my fam was already running around the house getting things together for today. Maria was getting dressed, mom was hopping in the shower, viki was eating (surprise, surprise. ha.) and my dad was waking up. We were all ready about an hour later and drove over to the stadium at Westgate. It was so hot out! I wore a black satin dress and was trying not to sweat in it.
We met the rest of my family there and sat for a while before it started. my mom had already been crying lol so I hugged her. tears of joy of course.
The ceremony was nice and we cheered when her name was called. After it finished we readied ourselves to get out of the stadium and it took foreverrrr!
We got out of the parking lot eventually and headed for the reception "Tea Party" at CeeCee's downtown glendale. yay! but we were running late!....ahh!
Stopped at home for a sec to freshen up and heard that there were already people ariving at CeeCees so we hurried and got to the restaurant. Let the Madhatter's tea party commence!
We started with some lovely Raspberry Lemonade.
and the main course was lemon pepper chicken breast with mashed potatoes and a croissant lol but it was too good, I forgot to take a picture of it.
Poor maria was running around the whole time, being a good hostess, but the party turned out great. CeeCee dressed as the red queen and I had my mad hatter's hat, while maria was Alice in her blue dress. Ashley took photos but I have yet to see them. There were also cute kool aid drinks in clear bottles that had "drink me" tabs and little cakes that said "eat me"
So proud of my sister. Yay for all her hard work!!
