Last Tuesday marked a momentous occassion in our family. Our oldest daughter graduated from college (a semester early). The day couldn't have been more perfect! The weather was beautiful, sunny and a balmy 70 degrees. We are so very proud of her.
On Saturday, we hosted a dessert party along with a candy bar to celebrate the occassion with our family and closest friends. I spent much of the day Thursday baking in preparation for the party. I haven't baked that much in a LONG time. It was a lot of fun!!

Ahhh! I am tearing up. So momentous. What a beautiful family and proud you should be. Darling candy and dessert party as well. Doing something similar for Christmas Eve. And that is my favorite quote of all time. It's so simple and so true.
