Girly time

It's impossible to come to Anchorage without going to Jackie's. She's our awesome Mary Kay lady. I believe my mom started seeing her for makeup in 1988. When Angelina and I became old enough to wear makeup, Mom has always taken us with her. Angelina and her daughter became friends and played soccer on their club team all through high school.

Jackie came over the morning of my wedding and did my makeup for me. Her daughter did my mom's hair. Anyway, all of this background is just to show you how happy it made me to take Carolyn with me. She's been there before, once.


She took great joy in painting her face with purple eyeshadow when I was occupied and not paying attention.

This time I decided to let her play dress up with me while Angelina worked on doing wedding makeup. She picked out an eyeshadow and a blush. She didn't want to put them on because she wanted to keep them, but she jumped at the chance for Jackie to paint her nails.



Carolyn really enjoyed her 'girl time.' After the makeup, she spent the rest of her time coloring and playing with her new friend.
