For her Mother's Day present, David took a day off work, so he could be home and Lisa could go off and pamper herself without having the children hanging on her. What she decided to do was have a Girls Day Out. So Lisa, Ashby, and I had a fun day.
Once the Dish Network guy had finished repairing our dish, so Bill could get HD on every channel that was supposed to get it, I gave Lisa a call. We met up at Mimi's for lunch. Ashby was so excited and she was really good, being one of the "girls."
From lunch, we went to get pedicures. That is always a very relaxing way to spend some time. Ashby only wanted her nails painted, but she sat patiently while Lisa and I had the full treatment. They had a big screen on the wall showing a Yanni concert, which is always entertaining. Then it switched to the animated film Rio. I don't think Ashby had ever seen it, but she was absolutely captivated. She had her toe nails painted bright pink and her fingernails painted purple. She was so excited!
From there, we went over to the mall, because that is what Ashby chose. She wanted to go to the Disney Store. (She knows Grandma is a softy about buying stuff.) We had fun walking around the store and looking at everything. She finally decided on a Prince Charming doll - one of those large fabric dolls. She already has three princesses, but now she has a prince to dance with them.
We made one last stop to get a fancy cookie and something to drink before we headed for home. Lisa had a wonderful time. Ashby kept saying this was just for girls - no boys! She was exhausted, but Lisa said later she was still excited and kept looking at her nails. I had a great day, too. A girls day out with my two best girls is the best!
I managed to slip in a short nap when I got home. Then I spent the rest of the day working on some family history. I have been running the problem reports and fixing some things.
What a great day!
