Cloud 9

That's where I was.

For my birthday (back in July) Jason gave me a gift certificate for a spa package with the explanation of, "You do so much for us we want you to feel pampered too." Love that kind of stuff and today I finally got around to taking advantage of it all.

Ahhhhhh.

Jason of course watched the boys while I went to the little salon in Boulder. First I got an hour long massage followed by an hour long facial. Lovely. Then they gave me the little lunch I'd ordered and I ate a delicious gourmet BLT with a side of sweet tea. Yum!

After that it was onto a pedicure and manicure and then a hair style.

It was perfect.

And I really liked how they had my day laid out...saving the nails for after lunch and the massage where I wouldn't have to worry about them getting messed up. And then the shampoo and style to get all the massage oil and facial scrubs out of my tresses. I had my hair blown straight because that's just something I rarely do.

I loved it. It was such a great day and nice to have some time just for me.

Jason doesn't like to repeat gifts too often ("I don't want to get you clothes for Christmas, I got you that for your birthday"). But I wouldn't mind a repeat like this!

I'm making him take me and my fancy hair and nails to dinner tonight so they don't go to waste. :)

Oh my word...that just sounds GLORIOUS! What a wonderful gift. I can't imagine getting pampered for that long. It must have felt great.

But pictures! Where are the pictures of the new "spruced up" you? As my friend, Char, would say (and you have to imagine this in a deep, Southern voice) "I bet you sure look purty, darlin'."
