Vegas Baby (and Miss Jane)

Well Jane arrived yesterday in Salt Lake City for a 10 day visit. We had a great afternoon, had Kaitlin Strickland (our neighbor who is Janes age and for the past 3 summers have hung out together) spend the night and at 5:15 am, I woke them up, loaded them in the Truck and headed off to Vegas to visit Grandpa and Grandma Birkland and Sammi and David. We had a great trip and the girl were really quite, watching movies and reading teen magazines. We had to stop and take pictures at the border signs (you know, 3 states in 6 hours)and of course of the temp reading 100 degrees!!!! Boy I do not miss the heat:)

We were not here even 15 minutes before the girls were in the pool. They are right now trying their hands at hooking a rug!! We are having dinner with Sammi and Kirk tonight for Sam's 22 Birthday which was yesterday, so more later.

We had a fun dinner at Olive Garden for Sammi 22nd Birthday. Can't believe that my kids are so grown up and wonderful. I miss her living close but I know she loves living back in Las Vegas and being close to Kirk (who we think is wonderful also)

As soon as we got home from dinner, the girls were back in the pool and since then have been sitting by the pool working on their hook rugs.
