A few years ago, Noelle started a new family tradition of having a girl's weekend once a year, where all the girls in the family get together (no boys allowed) for a few days of fun. This year our invitations said: "Come get pampered at our 3rd annual Lyman girls weekend (spa extravaganza), Feb. 24th-26th at Noelle and Scout's house!!
We came from near and far and met up at Noelle's house. Our first activity for our weekend of being pampered was for the "moms" to go to dinner at La Jolla Groves. The "daughters" stayed at Noelle's and had pizza & popcorn and watched a movie. The moms enjoyed a very delicious meal at La Jolla Groves. Yummy!!!!!
And then the real party began............spots were chosen, blankets were spread out and a movie was turned on.
After breakfast on Saturday morning, the days activities included, manicures and pedicures.......
CRAFTS!!!!!
and sewing skirts.
And then it was time for our annual "girls weekend" auction. This year's auction included spa items such as: lotions, emery boards, sweet fragrances, etc. The hottest item of the night seemed to be "Wisps". Kristi was the lucky one to end up with this prize.
For those who don't know what wisps are, here is a definition: A disposable mini-toothbrush with a breath freshening bead that allow you to have a clean, fresh mouth with no water or rinsing!!
Once again, everyone spread out the blankets, put in a movie and were soon asleep.
After enjoying a delicious breakfast, everyone had to pack up and head home. We had an awesome girl's weekend. Thank you so much Noelle. Looking forward to our 4th annual next year.

That is so cool! We need to start this tradition in our family. Imitation is the best form of flattery, right?
