Sp-aah (Day 62)

It’s the morning of Leia’s birthday but unfortunately for Mateo and Josette it’s still a school day, so the two are up and getting their breakfast early ready for the day ahead

And are soon setting off

A little later the rest of the family rise, and Leia receives a gift from her parents – a spa day!

Leia thanks her parents

And after a quick change of clothes

The girls are off!

A shout out to Devirose for this spa lot, isn’t it gorgeous!

The ladies get straight down to business, getting into their spa gowns

And heading in for the first stop of the day – foot massages!

I am so jealous right now.

Next up – the sauna, where Kate and Leia relax and chat for a while before getting a bit too warm

So, they soon head to the pool to cool off

And then to the bar for some drinks!

The final stop of the day is full body massages!

Which I can say with certainty they both thoroughly enjoyed!

But unfortunately the massages had to end, and the girls head back to the locker rooms to change into their new outfits

Before heading out for Leia’s birthday dinner!
this lot is a gorgeous restaurant by Kathi1304 – thanks!

just a quick shot of the inside. SO. PRETTY! I am seriously jealous of people who can build this well.

Upstairs, the Benali-Armstrong’s sit down at their table and check out the menu

Mateo asks Leia if she’s decided what she wants to do now that she’s an adult…

zxi1i2z.png

And Leia tells her family that she’s decided she wants to train to become a vet! How exciting!

Which prompts Salim to grab a glass of wine and toast to his eldest child – he reminisces about times gone by, and tells her how proud he is of the woman she has become

Here, here!

Salim decides to make some notes about the restaurant in order to write an article about it (of course!)

And before long the food arrives!

Do those monte christo sandwiches make anyone else hungry?! Just me? Ok…

After the plates are clean, Salim brings out a sim city cheesecake (Leia’s favourite!) with candles

And Leia blows them out, officially aging into a YOUNG ADULT!

Let’s all join in a verse with Mateo!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR LEIA, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUU
Beautiful.

With the candles out, it’s time to tuck in!

man I have a craving for cheesecake now 

As Salim calls for the bill, he’s told that “a star like you doesn’t need to pay” – wow! Look at that smug face. He knows he’s the boss 😉

On their walk home, the family come across a bucket of water balloons placed out, presumably for the last day of summer tomorrow…

OZTdpSr.png

But it’s too tempting, and the family stop to have a water balloon fight!

Kate is knocked over by a balloon to the face
don’t worry, she’s ok!

And Leia shows off

A few more balloons are exchanged

Before the happy (and wet!) Benali-Armstrong’s head home

And snuggle into their dry beds, with tummies full of good (free) food, and a day of memories made

And that’s all for this episode! What will happen next? Will Leia really become a vet? Will Salim write a good piece on the restaurant? Will the family have fun on the last day of summer?

Find out next time!
