FROM PRINCESS TO BARISTA~

Life is 
NOT A FAIRY TALE.
No, indeedy!

My beautiful princess,
ALANA (aka Lulu)
went from
THIS
to
THIS!
I think she is the 
cutest barista ever!
She knows that hard work pays off!
She is a 2nd generation barista-
following in her Auntie Mimi's footsteps.

She could have gone 
for the
glass slippers

Instead of the 
TENNIS SHOES WITH RHINESTONES~
But this girl knows that there is 
more to life than being pretty.
She's a grand girl with a kind heart
and as pretty inside as outside.

Can you BELIEVE she is working at
Neither can I!!!
Maybe I will get a free drink...
ummm--probably not!

Have a wonderful week
and upcoming
FOURTH OF JULY!!!!

  2. She is beautiful on the outside - but what is more important is that she is beautiful from the inside out.

  3. She is a very lovely young lady that going in the right direction. I respect her for not being too good to work and get her hands dirty. My son started out sacking groceries, BUT WENT ON TO GET A COLLEGE DEGREE AND HAS A GREAT JOB.

  7. She has grown into a lovely young woman. Love these pics!!! I hope she gets lots of tips. Do they get tips at Starbucks? With her personality she should do very well. Unless she's having to give free lattes to you-know-who. LOL :-))

  21. Your Alana is lovely in whatever she wears! I think working at Starbucks requires a second language (Starbucks). I would never get all those abbreviations for special orders. LOL

  22. They grow up so fast!
    She is lovely.
    If we get over your way this summer, we will have to go for coffee. :-)

  24. Diana, I think she will expect a big tip from her Nana. Your grandkids are all so nice looking. Pretty girls and handsome boys.My gosh those drinks look rich. I would need a regular coffee to wash them down. LOL. Blessings to you and yours for a fabulous 4th. Love you sweet friend. xoxo, Susie

  25. I wonder how hectic working in a cafe might be. Starbucks overflows with customers.

  26. My goodness, how ever did that little girl I first “met” grow so quickly and beautifully. A princess for sure.

  27. Time really flies doesn't it. She looks so much like Tara as she is getting older. Beautiful. I love the rhinestone tennis shoes with her dress. How fun. She is a beautiful girl. What a fun job too at the Starbucks.
    Happy 4th my friend.
    Hugs,
    Kris

  31. I never go to Starbucks because I think it's expensive. I'm more a Walmart drive-thru iced caramel coffee girl. You could ask. You might just get a free coffee. Happy 4th!

  36. I love that she has those rhinestone tennis shoes with her princess dress! I'd happily go order a coffee from her! (and tell her to sneak her Nana a freebie, lol). Happy 4th, Diana! Hope your day is a blast! (get it? oo, boy. I'm done now). :)
    hugs, Cecilia

  37. Such a beauty, difficult to believe she is all grown up. A very pretty barista indeed. Love the sparkly tennis shoes with her beautiful dress. Happy weekend. Xoxo

  38. Oh, she's adorable! I like her style!

    ReplyDelete
  39. She sure is pretty...in the blue dress and in her barista outfit:) Your description reminds me of my granddaughter. She has been told all her life (13 yrs.) how pretty she is, but thankfully it hasn't gone to her head and she is truly more beautiful inside than out. AND...she would love those blue rhinestone shoes. She would definitely opt for those over hills. I do love a gal who knows her own style. (If I had a job at Starbucks I would never make any money & gain pounds, pounds, pounds...and probably stay hyped up on caffeine!!!)

  40. Oohh how beautiful is that blue dress – LOVE those great shoes she chose! I don't drink coffee, but good for her barista-ing! Blessings to you all, Diana! ♥

  41. Is this a career choice or a job to pay her way through college?
