Last Saturday, some of my closest high school girlfriends and I got together to celebrate two happy occasions — our dear friend Jen being back in town from Indonesia, and Debbie’s 30th birthday! We started off the afternoon with mani pedis, and then ended the evening with a potluck joined by our guys. I hadn’t seen Jen in five years (!), so it was so nice to see her again after all this time and hear about her overseas adventures, and of course I was thrilled to be there to celebrate my best friend turning 30!

Mani pedis for bestest's birthday! :)

Fishy-cure
We got fish-y cure (pedicures with fish that nibble off your dead skin). It was my first time, and a neat experience!

 

Fresh pedicures!
