Pedicures and Pie with my Girls

Tonight my girls were all able to meet for pedicures.  We filled the place.  It was relaxing and fun being all together.  I love these traditions even though setting a day that works for everyone can be a bit hard, it's worth it.  We went to T Nails this time.  They use hot rocks to massage your legs and feet and that is nice.  To get rid of my dried up heels they used a grater...seriously it looked like a cheese grater but it worked wonderfully.  I love being all together...just being together makes my heart happy.  After our pedicures we went for pie. It was nice stretching our time together a little longer.  I love each of these cute girls and learn so much from each of them.  They are all so kind and thoughtful. Each one contributes something different and wonderful to our family.  I'm so glad that they belong to us.  They are all pretty perfect in my eyes!

Waffle Love

Today Tammy and Suzie took me to lunch to celebrate my birthday.  We went to Waffle Love since we haven't been there.  Our timing was good....right before a bunch of people.  We all ordered something different and shared a taste with each other.  I liked them all and will need to go back and order something new.  We sat by a window and on the other side were a few mom's with their kids.  There were a few sets of twins in the group.  Twins are pretty popular these days.  

Tammy gave me a necklace and had it wrapped in a "my pretty pony" bag.  It made me feel so young and made me smile.  Suzie gave me an adult coloring book and pencils and a bag of yummy treats. (jelly belly's and chocolate caramels) She brought them over after lunch because she had forgot them.  It's fun laughing at our forgetfulness.  In fact, Tammy went to pay and her wallet wasn't even in her purse.  We found out later that she had left it at a store she had gone to earlier.  I paid but told Tammy that meant we needed to go out again soon. ☺  (I like that idea best)  It was fun being with these two friends of mine.  Our hubby's (and ex) grew up together and so we have all known each other and been friends since we were married.  These are two very great ladies that have taught me so much.  They love and support me in everything.  I sure do love them forever and ever.

A Grand Time with some Grands

It was Justin and Natalie's 10th Anniversary last night and so we got to have their cute kids over.  They love coming to our house and entertain themselves so well.  They are so fun.  Macie got a big bump on her head right before bed time.  She ran into the corner of a table.  I was so sad for her.  She was pretty brave and let me comfort her.  We put some ice on the bump and by the time we got settled down for bed her little head looked much better and I could tell she was okay.  The kids were really good about going to bed once they went potty a few times, got their drinks and I got the lights right.  I told them that their cousins were coming in the morning and so they needed their rest.

Kevin's kids arrived just before 7:30.  I think Jordyn needed a little more sleep.  She was very possessive of me and kept telling Macie I was her gramma.  Both little girls were good and let me do their hair.  I made them all pancakes and that seemed to help a few attitudes.  The cousins really do play well together and the littlest ones are learning to better all the time.  The twins were tired and Kimleighel and I had a hard time getting them to eat.  They just weren't interested today.  The parents of all the grands came just as I needed to leave.  It was a fun night and morning.  I love all my grands cute faces so much.  They are a delight!
