Happy Birthday- 21!

It's true what they say, you blink and your baby has gone from learning to walk,
to walking out the door.  Kelsey turned 21 this past weekend....21!! 
She had to work on her birthday, because well...that's what you do when you are an adult.  It has been a tough week for her in her new job, lots of training and hard labor.  She had an early day so I left out a few little surprises to make her work day a little bit better.  We also bought her some new trail shoes which she has been breaking in pretty hard.

Once her day was finally finished (and it was a long one) her and I headed up to Lake Tahoe for a birthday celebration weekend.  We checked into our hotel for the weekend, the Lakeside Inn.
We stayed two nights at this little rustic cabin type hotel, thanks to Matt's work connections :)
Kelsey was set on having Italian for dinner so we found a restaurant just a few miles from where we were staying.
We both ordered their fettuccine Alfredo, it was sooo good!
They even gave her a free birthday dessert.  She chose the brownie sundae, which she said is the best dessert she has ever had.
I had gotten us tickets to a comedy club for later that night.  A very funny night!
Of course being in all those casino's and finally being legal to gamble...even though you hear your Dad tell you all the time no one wins, you still gotta try.
On Saturday we got up early and headed just down the street from our hotel to relax at the beach for the day.  We literally sat here all day...I mean can you ever get enough of this view?  The water was what I call "hypothermia cold" and with all that snow still to melt, I'm not sure it's gonna get much warmer.
We were pretty hungry after being in the sun all day so we showered and walked down to the Hard Rock for dinner.  Fun atmosphere(cute waiters) and great food.
We walked back to the hotel being a bit tired and decided to soak in the hot tub for the evening.
It was a fun adult/girls weekend, and hopefully a memorable one for Kelsey. Although she is growing up faster than I like, I really love seeing where her future is headed.
*side note she is wearing heals and I still say she is not taller than me...at least by much.
