High school friends

 My friend Debbie came to bring her daughter out for college and while she was here I was able to see her, it was so fun, we haven't seen each other in almost 35 years. She looks GREAT! we went to lunch and talked for hours!

Taylors birthday Party

 Not everyday your daughter turns nine! Today Taylor had her birthday party. The night before I made up all the stuff we needed for the Spa Day! Taylor has wanted one for years.

 I went to the dollar store and bought stuff for each girl, and things we would need for our spa day!

 I printed these sayings off and put them in picture frames. 

Fingernail glitter for their nails 

 Their gift bags! 

 I put one of these in each bag so they could take a bath with a candle. (at home)

 The cake…can I just say it was a hot mess. One of the girls has allergies to nuts and can't eat anything made in a place where nuts are used. So, I made a homemade cake which I have done a million times…but this time…of course this time it overflowed.

 We decorated..or should I say Connor did! 

 The nail basket

 The makeup basket

 the goodie basket

 The birthday girl

 What in the world does one do with cakes that look this bad? I had no idea…so I improvised.

 This was horrible to me, so I sent Loren to the store to pick up some fresh flowers.

Taylor and her friend Gena

 This is what I ended up with…not pretty but it was ok.
