Bike Rally

Park City was the scene of a Harley Davidson bike rally today. Oh my gosh, cycles everywhere! They closed the northbound I-135 exits at 53rd and 61st streets, and we saw 100's of bikes! Poor Kaitlin had to work the rally. Leeker's had their concession stand set up to provide food for the bikers. They served hundreds of meals and she is a tired young lady tonight!

In between the bike rally, we did our normal Saturday running: Sam's, Walmart, Leeker's, a visit with mom, etc. I also went to my sister-in-law's Party Lite show tonight.

Now we're settling down for a movie. Brandon wants to watch Mr. Brooks with Kevin Costner. We'll see if his choice wins out.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY NIECE LENORE! She called me from Germany today to tell me she'd won another contest and was getting 5 free books. She wanted to know if I'd like her to have them sent to me so I could read them first! Isn't that nice? She'll be home the first part of July - after spending the 4th in Washington, DC with some friends - so she can get the books from me then. We are looking forward to her visit.

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
