Spa Day

Hello Everyone! Here is a fun little update for us...as usual I'm significantly behind so at this rate you can expect Christmas in July as far as pages go (2011 AND 2010 Christmas ;) Everyone here is fine. Nancy has started Primary and loves it! She said both opening and closing prayer a couple of weeks ago...the only volunteer, and without any help! Victoria is starting to talk quite a bit, my favorite of her words those is still, "pink sparkly" for when she wants to wear said shoes. Daniel has just finished busy season so is getting to relax a little. We miss you all! Afton et al.
Text: Welcome to the Ooh La La Spa! Inspired by the book Fancy Nancy it's Beauty Day, we transformed our home into a spa! Above, you can see the colorful pillows and cushions, accented by rose petals, and armoire loaded with lotions, polish, etc. We enjoyed yogurt parfaits in fancy cups and herbal tea poured from Mommy's newest European garage sale snag. The home made face masks were less successful than expected...though Victoria did enjoy eating the cucumbers. Who'd have thought that kids who love dirt on their faces would shy away from a homemade face-mask on their skin?

Text: Though face masks had limited appeal, everyone loved the foot bath, manicures, pedicures and make overs! Nancy wanted straight hair like her friend Loulou and Loulou wanted curly hair like Nancy! Though she certainly doesn't need any help being beautiful, here we have the finished product... Voila!
