2nd Annual Girls Day

Yesterday was our 2nd annual girls day. We started the day at a bridal shower for our cousins' new fiancees. After stuffing our faces full at Aunt Gina's house we went to get our nails done at the beauty school. I was the lucky one to get the male manicurist. I haven't had a boy play with my hands that much since Jon and I were dating.
After getting our nails beautified, we headed downtown to try the much talked about Red Iguana Mexican Restaurant. It was delicious and the atmosphere was very.....colorful.
Then we headed to see the renovations at the capitol building. We didn't see a single thing different, but it was fun to just walk around since none of us had been there in a long time.
We tried to go to the Olympic Visitor Center at the U of U, but it was closed. So we headed to do some shopping at Trolley Square.
After shopping a bit we headed to dinner at Market Street Grill. I really liked the fish and I am not a big fish person. After getting sickly full for the 3rd time that day we decided we were all getting tired and headed home.
It was so fun to spend the day with just the girls and have a little break from the normal routine. Thanks to our husbands for taking care of the kids and the houses. Maybe we should make this a biannual event.

Amy and I shared a meal at Market Street Grille. They brought her out a plate so we could split our food. They were nice enough to give her her own lemon and tarter sauce. We had to take a picture though because it looks like that is all she ordered.

Getting my nails done. While getting my nails done I also got many beauty tips about how to keep my nails nice and how to avoid wrinkles. :)
