Her Must Haves: Connections with Friends & Pampering

After heading to the MOPS (www.mops.org) Convention this summer, my team and I realized one vital thing we seemed to be missing. Time for ourselves. And for ourselves–I mean taking care of ourselves. Krista and I created our own workshop by the pool one afternoon and discussed the missing element in our local moms group. 

After feeling refresh and pampered, I had energy to tackle Mt. Laundry, deadlines for HVFH, and  genuinely enjoyed being with my kids. On the drive home from Texas, I had 10 hours to get to know the girls on my steering team and we realized another must have for women: FRIENDS and not the frienemy type where no one moves past surface level. On the drive home we decided to bring connections with other women and time for self to our gals.

With the help of Sonny Nails & Olivia’s Salon: we pampered our moms and gave them a chance to connect. 

What mom doesn’t need a hand massage and manicure? 

OH! I wished this picture had shown up better–who doesn’t need a scalp massage? 

        Manicures and good conversation! The best part: there were no kids hanging on our legs saying, “Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!” 

I’m curious, when it comes to “ME” time, what are your must haves?
