It really is all about the little things in life... for those are what make life special!
It's about Paradise Punch...
...toes that is!
After a stressful week and a not-so-great day of school Friday I treated myself to a trip to Tippy Toes for a pedicure!! It was just what I needed to help wash away a nitty-gritty week and help me "let go" of the stress and enjoy my weekend!
It's about accessories...
...specially designed.
I went to Betsey's beautiful home for a Jewelry party Friday night with my bestst, Moo! Betsey's home was beautiful and the food she had prepared was WoNdErFuL!!!! Not to mention all the fun accessories that were there to browse and purchase! I chose a pair of earrings for myself and a specially designed a pair for my Mama for Mother's day!
It's about enrichment...
...through the arts and good company.
Mama drove up Saturday to spend the day with me. We went to the Frist Center (I am a member - GREAT investment!!!). We saw the Monet to Dalí exhibit and the Tiffany by Design exhibit! Both were exquisite in their own way. The Monet to Dali exhibit included works by Cézanne, Dalí, Degas, Gauguin, Matisse, Monet, Picasso, Renoir, Seurat, and Van Gogh! It was excellent. The Tiffany by Design exhibit included 40 lamps created by the Tiffany Studios in New York between 1900 and 1918. Okay, so I am a nerd, but I LOVE museums!! It was a WONDERFUL day! After the Frist we did some shopping and then had dinner and then Mom hit the road!
Mom and I always have such a wonderful time together, even when our visits are short! My mom is not just my mother, but a dear, dear friend and I am thankful every day for our open, honest, and loving relationship!
What a blessed two days I have had! Just what I needed to help put the week behind me!
Check out the Frist Center at: http://www.fristcenter.org/site/default.aspx and if you live anywhere near Nashville you should go!!! As I said, I am a member... everyone should join - it is very affordable and worth every penny!

I'm sorry you had a tough day Friday, but it looks like you took good measures to starting the weekend off right! Love the nail polish color! And, that picture of you and your mom is so cute. Oh, and a little jewelry therapy never hurts either!
Gotta LOVE some Paradise Punch,baby! I'm glad your mama came to spend time with you. She's an amazing lady.
I dropped in from Leigh Ann's blog. Love the toenail polish! Retail therapy rather it be at home party or in the mall is always a good pick me up! :) Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed reading about you. :)
Love the toes, love the jewelry night, LOVE you!
