Girls night

     I hosted a girls night at my house this week.  It took quite a bit of coordinating but I think I pulled it off quite nicely.  We started the night with 3 different groups of girls going in for pedicures at one of the salons here on base.  Yes I got a pedicure.  Then everyone met at my house to have treats, trade beauty favorites, and chit chat. 
     Each girl brought 5 of their favorite beauty item to swap with 5 other people.  They did not get to choose what or who they swapped with.  I made a guessing game to play.  I gave each girl 5 different facts.  One for each of the five girls that they would get a beauty supply from.  It was a fun way to get to know each other and trade items.  I made my hot oil treatment which is melted coconut oil with some peppermint essential oils mixed in.  In return I got 2 chapsticks, face moisturizer, body spray, 2 lip glosses and a hand scrub. 
     The ladies hung around and ate food until the wee hours of the night.  But really it was until about 10 o'clock.  Everyone brought a snack to share so there was plenty of food to go around.  I had a great time and can not wait until with any luck there is another girls night!
