Road Trip

My Dad does a lot of bussiness in California. McKenzie just graduated high school and I had a break before summer school started. We figured it would be fun to tag along. Us the first day. We did not wear make-up or get ready for the day. whats the point when we were going to be in the car for 8 hours?
Our hotel room in Reno,NV. We got ready to go to dinner while Dad was working.

Outside a restraunt. I don't even remember the name.
My Dad was awesome enough to drive us an extra 6 hour round trip to see my friend Kirsi.

On our way to meet Kirsi
Kirsi had to work unitl 8 so we stopped in San Luis Obispo to walk around the Farmers Market. We had a blast!

Mom and Kenzie


Me at Kirsi's. I am really happy!

Kirsi has been making flowers out of fabric that are amazing! She was nice enough to teach us!

Kirsi with flowers that she has already made.

McKenzie modeling her headband that Kirsi helped her make. SO CUTE!


Kirsi reading to us! She is so hilarious!

Kenzie with her headband in, me with the necklace Kirsi made, and Kirsi. I loved our craft!

The whole gang! I love them all! We had such a great time with Kirsi and her family. It was well worth the 6 extra hours in the car!

Of course we had to stop at In-and -Out burger

We stopped at Lake Tahoe. It was beautiful!

In Nevada there is an Indian Historical sight that we stopped at. There was an Indian that hated that the "white people" wasted. So he build this little villiage out of garbage. The only thing he bought was cement.


This old car is part of the fence. It is just cemented in.


Most of their fence poles have faces carved in them

In side a cellar. Can you see the wall are made out of bottles?

McKenzie in the Outhouse. I think it is still used today. SO GROSS!

We were going to stop at a wildlife museum but it was closed on Saturday.

Even though it was closed I made Kenzie pose for a picture in front of the door.


The only thing we saw from the museum.

We had such a great time on our trip. While we were waiting for Dad at one of his appointments we walked around a dollar store. McKenzie bought the "bump it" they give your hair voulume. We tried doing it in the car and it did not turn out so well. We were all laughing so hard.


I had a great time with my family. We did spend a lot of time in the car. We drove 2,200 miles, which equals 40 hours.. listened to 2 books on tape, read 2 of my own books, played Outburst for 6 hours, and slept! Thank Mom, Dad and Kenzie for the great time!
