Well, it's official folks! Vanessa has graduated from high school! To celebrate, we spent a day at the Arboretum, a wonderful lunch at Pappadeaux and a week later had dessert at the Cheesecake Factory. Vanessa is now taking charge of home management (ie. menu-making, grocery shopping, errand running, food prep, cleaning and laundry; as well as taking care of our personal & business accounting)!
Throughout the day we kept asking each other
"Who let Johanna out of the house without doing her hair???"
Vanessa took a few of me for our doula website
Our beautiful Mamacita! She did a lot of the luggage-carrying...thank you!
Isn't this cute? A wishing well!
Snapdragons are probably my most favorite flower
Headed to Pappadeaux!
(Took this while waiting at a stop light. I kept trying to get the camera to focus on the mirror;
finally got the picture before the car behind us honked :D)
Dessert and coffee at the Cheesecake Factory!
(sorry for the poor quality - phone camera)
Congratulations Vanessa Elaine!
We love you and are so proud of the beautiful young lady that you have become.
