So, right after my family hit the road...after the Family Birthday Celebration...Mark immediately made me go take a nap...and I went kicking and screaming...
Yeah, right. Napping is practically my spiritual gift.
Anyway, he made me take a nap, which I thoroughly enjoyed. In an hour or so, he woke me up, told me to get ready, handed me a hunk of cash to spend frivolously, and sent me to Sioux Falls for the night. Little did I know, he had been working behind the scenes with some of my best gal pals to plan a super wonderful girls' night out celebration.
My super wonderful friends arranged for an entire swanky salon in Sioux Falls to open on Sunday - just for us. Two gals came in on their day off to spoil us and give us manicures. It was delightful. Lisha brought me some sort of melt-in-your-mouth chocolate cake with L-I-Z-A candles on it. Leave it to her...
Soaking our toes...
Birthday goodies!
And supper at Spezia. Holy moly deliciousness.
Oh, how I love these girls. They are just the greatest. Alisha is one of the most selfless people I know. She is hilarious, sarcastic, real and honest...and she is a killer gymnastics coach. Shannon's laugh will inevitably make you laugh. She always sees the best in people and has such a sweet heart...she is also a great roommate. Danielle is one of the most strong, yet grace-filled people I know. She has been through every-single-really-tough-thing in life, yet continues to press on with hope and trust in Jesus. She is so smart. If I am half the mama she is someday, I will be a happy camper.
Did I mention I have great friends?.....
