With today being Pioneer Day, we decided, or I guess Shane would say that I decided, to do something to celebrate this great day. So what better way than to go hike in the mountains? That's just what we did and my parents and Leslie and Julieanne and their kids went with us. I haven't been on this hike to Donut Falls since I was younger so it was great to do it again. There were quite a few people up at the top so we didn't get too close to the falls but that's okay. It was just fun being in the mountains, a lot cooler, and being with family. I was impressed that the kids all did great and no major drama occurred! Here's a few pictures of our fun outing.

Donut Falls
With today being Pioneer Day, we decided, or I guess Shane would say that I decided, to do something to celebrate this great day. So what better way than to go hike in the mountains? That's just what we did and my parents and Leslie and Julieanne and their kids went with us. I haven't been on this hike to Donut Falls since I was younger so it was great to do it again. There were quite a few people up at the top so we didn't get too close to the falls but that's okay. It was just fun being in the mountains, a lot cooler, and being with family.

Road Trip...Road Trip...Viva Las Vegas
Every year Shane has his annual work convention in Las Vegas and every year I take full advantage of going. The last couple of years Shelby and Sage have gone with us and we've had a great time swimming, school shopping and playing. This year Shane flew down Monday and the girls and I and my sister Leslie and her little baby drove down on Wednesday. There's a lot of good things about having all girls, but I must say that having road trips with just my girls is WAY fun and I see more of them in our future ahead. We had a great time talking and sharing stories and doing MAD LIBS (when was the last time you did one off them? 3rd grade?) and buying treats at every stop. I'm glad Leslie came with us even if she did make fun of me the whole time. ha ha! She stayed at a friends house and came and hung out with the girls on Friday so I could go with Shane to dinner. Thanks Les! I didn't take many photos- I guess we've been there enough and I have enough photos from there that I didn't take much. But I did get a photo of Shane and the girls with a guy from "The Blue Man Group". That was a great show! And we did jam out on the front row of the "STYX" concert. The girls got guitar pics thrown at them and everything- it was great! Vacation for me is being able to read a book uninterrupted and I did just that. I started and finished "The Host" while we were in Vegas. I couldn't put it down and I loved it! So all in all, great company, great food, great shopping, great time!
