The Day Spa at Nantahala Village

For Labor Day, we traveled to see my family at the Nantahala Village. It was Jacob's birthday. We had been saving and were able to get the boys a Wii. However, I think we had as much fun as they did with the game. You should have seen children, parents and grandparents yelling at the Mario cars as they kept driving to the right. Then, finally Jacob figured out we all had the remotes turned the wrong way. So, we were humbled.

We had a great time hanging out with the Fam, plus Clayton and I received a little pampering at The Day Spa. I was so excited to see the place. It is located on the back side of the resort in a quaint house with a wrap around porch. Chase did a good job picking out relaxing wall colors and it even had that soothing spa smell. Clayton and I got a couples massage and I was really impressed because the pressure was perfect and she hit all the right places. I've had continual back problems since 17 because I was run over by a Suburban in my high school parking lot. consequently, I've gotten about 10 massages in my life at some well known places, but I have to tell you that the massages at their spa were perfect because they really listened to my trouble spots.

I also got a facial, and back facial, if that's what you call it. Elisabeth did a great job and I can tell my skin really needed it. How great is it that I can visit my family and they have a spa right in their back yard. So thanks guys. I feel really lucky to have gotten to enjoy the luxuries of the resort with you. I can't wait to bring some friends next time. Mom I know you've gotten a facial, but you have to stop and get a massage. Take a break and you won't regret it! I'd love to see you relax a little. Love you.
