This beautiful girl is 15! Quincy is such a treasure. She is everyone’s bestie. She loves vivaciously and loves abundantly. It’s so easy to love her right back. Quincy has a compassionate heart. She loves fashion. She works very hard. She reeeeeally loves her friends. All 217,199 of them. Everyone who spends a minute with Quincy knows that you’re automatically THE most important person in her life. She’s adored by adults and children alike and we all just can’t get enough.
For her party, she wanted a full on Quinceañera, with a gown and a dance, but to avoid culturally appropriating her Latinx friends (and her sister), she opted to just take some inspiration from the beautiful tradition and have a big party. Aaron took the boys for the day up to a BYU basketball game in Missouri and we got into party mode around here. I took the big girls out for bagels and shopping (Quincy’s dream day!) and then came back home to set up for a party.
I made a Cafe Rio feast (MVP of the day goes to Kasey, who entertained littles, brought food, and even picked up my groceries so I could focus on birthday girl, and then she came over to hang out so I could slip out to help a friend who’s house was on fire-more on that later. Kasey played party mom with me and stayed to the end and even helped me take one of the round of kids home when we shut the party down at midnight.)
Quincy is well loved. She put out an open invite on the flier and texted it to a handful of friends. There were 28 flannel and Christmas clad teens here and at one point, they all crammed into the living room for an epic round of just dance. What fun kids.
