First Baptist - Bossier City, LA



On the road again! After a short break, we were ready to get out among our spa sisters again. Melissa came up to my new home in Zavalla, Tx and hung out with me for the weekend and helped me with my garage sale. On Monday, we packed up our showcase and t-shirts and headed over to Louisiana to meet Deb and her friends.
Deb had actually contacted us several years ago, right after we first started The Spa Girls. Then, life happened and we lost touch for awhile. Recently, Deb met up with us again on Facebook. We love Facebook! When we found each other again, she was heading up the Women's Ministry at First Baptist Church, Bossier City and was looking for programs for her Monday nights in July events. We were so excited to be able to finally meet her at last. Of course, we became instant friends and we had such a fun night. The ladies were so nice and full of laughter and fun. They were a great audience and the food and decorations were incredible.
We got to meet the pastor's wife and Deb's son's mother-in-law, aka, Deb's friend. We sat with them for dinner and had fun getting to know them and finding out where they got their cute shoes. (Necessary info for a spa girl). Wesley in the sound booth was also a great Spa Dude that night! Thanks Wes for keeping the power point and the sound running smoothly!
Bossier City is about 2 hours from Zavalla, we think. We went slow and shopped all along the way. We met a very nice couple in Logansport, LA who run an antique's store. They had Christian music playing, so we introduced ourselves and found out they attend a church near there and had just returned from a fabulous marrige retreat. When people love the Lord you can make friends so fast and we now have 2 new friends in that town. I am going to take my mom there this fall, so I will stop by and visit them again. We ended up at the Bossier City Boardwalk Outlet Mall area. We shopped a little and then went in to Happy Feet for a quick pedicure. It had been too long and they had to work really hard, especially on my feet. After they were finished with us, we were so relaxed we were afraid we wouldn't be able to work, but meeting Deb and her friends jazzed us back up right away and we had so much fun. We hope they invite us back soon!
