We stayed in St. George for 5 days, 4 nights then drive back to Las Vegas and stay the night then off to NJ/ NY. We will stay in New Jersery for 2 nights then we are headed back home! Here is Kenzie, Daddy & Dolly waiting to board the plane.
Here is Kenzie getting ready for her first plane ride. She did alright on the flight she slept for an hour and a half then was a little restless. Other than that she did ok.
The house we stayed at in St. George with Harold, Annika, Rebecca, Roger, Nikki, Steve, and Lindsey & Linnea stayed too (even though they live in St. George)! It was a lot of fun!

Friday June 29, 2008... Today we had to get ready for the wedding so it was alot of running around then we just hung out. Here is everyone at the pool. It was really hot the whole time we were there. It got up to 114 degrees while we were there.

Tuesday July 1, 2008... We flew out of Las Vegas at 6:40am. This flight was A LOT better! We had the row behind first class so we had extra room and nobody else sat with us so we had the whole row too! Kenzie slept for 3 hours out of the 4 1/2 hour flight so she was really happy when she woke up!!
Kenzie also made friends with the flight attendant so she got first class service..a warm cookie & milk!

Wednesday July 2, 2008... Today we had a tour of Yankee Stadium then we hung around in New York City because we went to the game later that night. Here is the view from the press box!
