Natalie and I are having a great "girlie day" today. We drove around with the top down and had some good luck, too. I topped off the gas tank in the car and went in to get a drink for each of us. I had found 2 lottery tickets that were free-ticket winners, and took them in with me. Got our stuff, including the 2 free scratcher tickets, and headed to WalMart. I needed milk, butter, laundry detergent and light bulbs. I looked in the checkbook and realized that it was gonna be ugly. I had less than $18 in there, and had to buy a Bday present for the girl that invited Natalie to the party. Well, OK, I'll have to crap some money to deposit. So be it.
Right before we went in, Natalie said, "can I scratch one of the lottery tickets?" Oh yeah, I forgot. "Go ahead," I said. She did, and it was a loser. I scratched the other and won $60! WoooHoooo! The wolf has been temporarily locked out at the door. Good luck indeed.
We went to Libby Lu's, for Emily's birthday. Natalie was the only one that showed up, which was fortunate for Emily's dad, since I saw that he paid $30 each for the two of them. ACK! The girls got to choose the look that they wanted, then got pampered and preened over. They mixed their own concoctions of perfume, shower gel and body lotion. They got to choose 5 free items each to put in the free backpacks. It was real cool. Also, real girlie. All pink and fluffy, everywhere you looked.
They had a great time, and I'm glad she got to go. She's not usually a girlie girl, but she had a great time today. The only problem was, she kept covering her belly. She didn't like it showing. That's my girl. Your daddy would be proud. Keep that attitude into your teens, ok?

Looks like Natalie had a good time! I was never the girlie pink type either, but sometimes it's fun to be pampered. They looked so cute "striking a pose"

Awwww, the pics of the girls are so cute! Looks like they had a great time. They just put one of those places in our mall, but we haven't been there yet. After seeing your pics, I think I"ll wait till payday! LOL....
Natalie is a beautiful girl. Just look out Mom when the teenage years do hit.
This is what I do at my new Job, we do glamour girl parties, I have so much fun playing with all the girls, My new shop is a place for Kids cuts we have cool little cars they get their hair cut in and the bigger kids can play the play station or you can watch a movie on one of three flat screen Tvs.
I'm proud of your daughter for being modest. It's cool that young women are being confident and proud, but the whole Paris Hilton/Lindsay HOhan influence is corrupting so many girls. You're a good ma.
Hugs,
