"The difference between life and death...

Over the last year we have really learned to appreciate the little things in life.  Less is truly More in our book.  One of the things that Ava and Neely look most forward too is our Sunday Night Girl Time.

Usually that means we get into our pajamas, choose our favorite color nail polish and make beautiful feet!  Neely calls it the Foot Spa.  But this week-end we decided to treat ourselves at the local mani-pedi place and had an absolute blast. (Last week was an especially tough week for us…for a lot of reasons. So it was great to create a little escape.)

The have little pink pedicure chairs for children complete with butterfly wings and personal DVD players.  I don’t think Neely stopped smiling the entire time.  Never underestimate the power of the little things.  It’s amazing what a little nail polish and cute flip flops can do to improve your spirits.
