Have I ever mentioned that I love massages?  I DO!  Yesterday, Leslie, a long-time family friend and professional masseuse, spent the day at our house doing full-body massages.  The deal is simple - if I can set up 4 or 5 people to get a massage, then Leslie will travel down from Salt Lake and do us all in the comfort of my own home.  I love it!  She charges about HALF the price of what most spas charge so I don't feel too guilty. :)  She set up her table in the girls bedroom, which was very private and quiet, and was very cool about everything.  Needless to say, everyone left feeling VERY relaxed.

Anyway, after Leslie finished one of the massages and was changing the sheets, Malia walked in the room and told her she was "ready for her massage".  I don't think she knew what a massage was, but she'd heard everyone talking about it the whole day and wanted to check it out.  Anyways, Leslie put her up on the table for a mini session and Malia was in heaven.

Thanks so much Leslie!  Can't wait to see you again soon!

I'm glad you got your massage, Mary. Spa massages really are the best! Sorry I ended up not coming over for it :(. Saia was working at that time and also, we both thought I should probably use my massage gift card before spending money on another massage. ;) Anyway, if leslie does come again, definitely include me next time!
