Could a girls trip get any better than this?! 🛍️

Our residents traveled with our Recreation Team to the Mall of America in Minnesota for a one-of-a-kind vacation! They enjoyed shopping, being pampered with makeovers, eating at the Rainforest Cafe, and much more. We hope you ladies had a fabulous time! 💅✨
