me, ma, and our day at the spa

i don't remember if i mentioned it or not, but through january and february i helped at our local rec center with the youth cheerleading. we had about 30 girls total in both groups. i really enjoyed it and would love to do something like that again sometime.
anyway, the wonderful head coach gave me a gift certificate at the end of the season for helping her out. it was a gift card to the Chateau Spa. i hadn't used it yet, and wasn't too sure when i was acutally going to use it. the only thing i did know was that i was so excited to go and also that i didn't want to go by myself. after all, it isn't any fun to do that kind of thing by yourself.
so i made up my mind, what a wonderful mother's day gift. so on the saturday of mothers day weekend mom and i went to the Chateau and began our spa day.
(just for the record, alot of places won't give women massages who are in their first trimester. thankfully i was almost 12 weeks and one of the massage therapists agreed to give me a massage)
one of the great things about Chateau is that if you make an appointment with them they also allow you to use all the rest of their facilities which includes a steam room, sauna, and whirlpool. the only thing i could use was really the whirlpool, but couldn't stay in there very long either. i am not complaining mind you, mom and i had the most relaxing time.
after our thirty minute massages we got some snacks from the lounge then headed to the outdoor whirlpool for about 2 hours outside soaking up some sun.
it was so wonderful. we both agreed that we should do it every week.
anyone want to join us next time?
