My sister, Summer, traveled 16 hours with her husband, Clint, and three children to come and stay with us for a week! Clint is in Medical School in VA right now and had a break , so they figured, why not take a road trip and visit family? We're so glad they did! We went out as couples to dinner and the temple while Ginger and Gillian watched all the kids. The weather was perfect and the kids loved having time to spend with their cousins outside all day.
They were here on Valentine's Day, so we spent the day making and decorating Valentine's cookies.
I even got adventurous and highlighted Summer's hair! In our family (my sisters) we are always doing each other's hair to save a dime, and have never had any real training. But, I have some seriously talented sisters when it comes to doing hair. We all cut our husband's and boy's hair and are always experimenting with highlighting. I didn't ever want to try highlighting, but Summer was confident I could do it, and obviously was willing to take the risk if I completely destroyed her hair! But, since I've seen it done a million times, and Summer was willing, I tried it out. I was so amazed how it turned out!
Doesn't her hair look amazing?! It was a wonderful thing to have a sister around for an entire week. We talked and laughed and cried and reminisced about our beloved sister, Ginger. How blessed I am to have five sisters that I can do that with, who know exactly what I am going through. I love my sisters!

Oops! :)
lol. just a tip: if you use foil for wrapping potatos etc, it's thinner and easier to use than sheet foil. that's all i use at my salon and i buy it at sam's club. ;) if i ever get there for a visit, i'll show you how to do anything you want. than you can say you learned from a 'professional'. lol.
oh, but it looks great without my (unsolicited) help. lol just had to clear that up. ;)
Is there anything you can't do? (And whatever you are thinking, I'm sure if you just tried, you'd be a natural at it too.)
I'll call you later this week to catch up for real. Hope all is well and you had a great trip.
P.S. I'm thinking the real estate in San Fran is worth the price. :)
