t-minus one day and counting

Its here the event that we have been planning for almost six months now: THE SPA WEEKEND! Nine of my closest friends planned a 30th birthday party for ourselves. There are seven of us who turn 30 this year, 2007 and the younger two who will turn 30 in 2008 are celebrating their birthdays early with us. It just happens that we can do this all together this year, we will miss Emily but she is busy pruning her lemon tree in sunny CA! Are we blessed, of course we are. Do we all have loving husbands who want us to go and enjoy ourselves, yes we do, but we are still willing to leave the kids with them and take off. Here we go, Friday morning I will take my children to their grandparents in Ohio and then onto Heidi's for me. I get to go to the airport to pick up the two flying in and then its slumber party birthday night. Megan has been taking a cake making/fondant icing class and so I am excited to taste her handiwork. Saturday from 9-3 we are spaing it, pedicures, manicures, facials, massages, sugar scrubs, lunch provided, bathrobes for the day we will not know how to act we all deserve this bit of pampering don't you think. Saturday night dinner out and dueling pianos. Sunday a day or rest relaxation and fellowship. I do thank the Lord that he has given me wonderful friendships with wonderful girls. Check out Philippians 1:3 and you will know my true feeling for all my blessed friends. See you after my weekend of relaxation and I will be up to the challenges of being a mom and a wife and a friend.
