Spa Night!

Around Christmas time, some of my dear friends generously donated boxes full of delightfully girly products for the girls in our Hope Program. The dontation was originally for Christmas gifts, but the shipment was detained in Texas and did not arrive in Mexico until after Christmas had come and gone.

Random thought: Isn't it funny how we originally intend for something to be used in a certain way and then it turns out that God has a totally different and immeasurably better purpose in mind? :)

Anyway, back to the story... In the beginning of Feburary all of the gifts arrived and I was so excited to see everything! Lotion, bodywash, deodorant, toothbrushes and make-up... lots and lots of make-up! All of these items are much needed necessities on our campus. I couldn't wait to put together packages for the girls!

Each of the female teens on our campus (there are 11) received a bag which contained something similar to the picture below.

Rather than just drop the bags off at the teen homes, my roommate and I had another idea in mind! A SPA NIGHT! We thought it would be fun to invite the girls over to our house for manicures, pedicures, facials, chololate and a chick-flick! At the end of the night we would give each of the girls their gift!

I ran the pedicure station! Here is Carolina getting her toes painted...

Some of the girls at the end of the night! We all had so much fun!

My favorite part of the night was hanging out with the girls and getting to know each of them better. A special thanks to my friends who made all of this possible! You are such a blessing and God has used your genorosity to bring joy to these sweet girls! Thank you!!
