Happy Birthday Mimi

Photobucket
Yesterday was our Mimi's birthday and we celebrated today with a birthday breakfast and mimosas and an incredibly yummy red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting...

and, of course, there were presents. Athena and Zoe's card said (in Athena's writing) "Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday Mimi. We will do spa to you."

So immediately after breakfast, the girls brought Mimi her robe and led her to the living room where they soaked her feet in a salad bowl and put a warm towel on her face, smeared lotion all over her, put cucumbers on her eyes and brushed her hair - inspired by a Fancy Nancy book we read last week.

After a good soak, Athena painted Mimi's nails while Zoe painted her toes.

Even the Dude got into it and squeezed some lotion on her.

The girls finished her off with a truly lovely makeover and she left refreshed, rejuvenated and only slightly greasy. Luckily, her card also came with a gift certificate for a few real spa services to clean up ours. Only the best for our Mimi!
