Girls GroupSeveral school age girls along with a few teens met with mentors to get their nails done and enjoy a meal together while they talked about school, homework, boys and parents.  The Nail Shop in Northridge was kind enough to offer a discount while we practically took over their shop on a warm November afternoon.  We are hoping to get all the girls together during the two week vacation in December and bake cookies to give as gifts to celebrate the season of giving.
