The Cranky Friend ("Do we need to walk so fast? It's hot!") and I had the pleasure of seeing a photo session for a Quinceanera while we were walking at Anson Nixon Park on Saturday. The birthday girl, who looked beautiful, wore a teal-blue, full-length ball gown with a full ruffled skirt. She was accompanied by a group of her peers who took part in the ceremony, all formally dressed: the boys wore black suits with matching blue vests and the girls white and blue dresses. They arrived at the park in one of those white limos that looks like it's been stretched out like taffy.
The Quinceanera is a traditional Latin American ceremony to celebrate a girl's 15th birthday and marks her coming of age as a young woman.
