I’m a sophomore here in JHS I celebrated my Quinceanera on March 27, 2010.

Church was held at St. Jerome’s Catholic Church.

After, I went and took pictures with my family and friends and then came the dance which was at the Jerome Fairgrounds.

My colors were hot pink and yellow.

My Mom, sister, and brother made my dream come true that I always wanted as a little girl they tried and made it the best even though my dad wasn’t here.

The dance I liked the most was the toast because I really like how it went and I really liked the song.

I hated that I didn’t dance my second surprise which was tech-no that me and my Damas and Chambelanes really worked hard on.
