Sydney flew in on Sunday, where we made a chocolate silk pie to celebrate her 15th birthday (which was the Wednesday before).
The next day, after some shopping in Salt Lake, we went out for Thai food (a first for Syd, but a weekly occurance for me). The verdict? Bangkok Grill gets two thumbs up!
The next day we explored the world of sushi at Happy Sumo. Earlier this summer, my friend Katie (or is is Kate? I'm confused what to refer to you as now...) had her younger sister visit and noted "All my little sis wants to do is take pics and post them on Facebook. " Truer words have never been blogged...
The might before she left, I took Sydney up the canyon to Sundance for a little art project. If you sketch at night time, all you can see are silouettes and you end up with a cool abstract-ish line drawing.
Sydney sees the signs as a good place to take a cool facebook picture. I see them as a great way to push my green agenda and further disappoint my conservative parents. Everybody wins.
We were having a blasty blast until some crazy bat decided to swoop a little too closely (multiple times), causing us to run to the car waving our arms and shreiking. Boo.
We were up way too late that night and had to go to the airport way too early the next morning. Good news is that since she is under 18, I got to get a super cool security pass to go wait at the gate and people watch with Sydney until she got on the plane to go home.
...and now it is quiet and lonely at my apartment. Who is coming to visit next??

Jeez, what a fun week. I hope will treat your next visitor (moi) just as well. Although you cannot escort me through the airport.
Bah! I love little sisters. Cute pics.
And yeah, the name thing, haha. Half my family calls me one, half calls me the other. I use Kate for my articles because it sounds less AYSO soccer than Katie.
