Vegas Baby

We like to visit Vegas at least once a summer and this year was no exception. It was a different kind of trip though. It started off by Jeremy, my mom and I driving to Vegas for a family wedding. We took our time getting driving up and stopped at every outlet. It was a lot of fun visiting in the car and not being interrupted by kids every two seconds or listening to Elmo or Star Wars on the TV. The next day my brother and his wife joined us. We went to the weeding that night which was a lot of fun (hopefully I will get photos from my mom). My mom left after the weeding and Jeremy and I were alone for 24 hours before his parents drove up with the kids. It was a nice 24 hours, but differently not long enough! Jeremy's parents left the next day and we spent a few nights with the kids. I think Jeremy and I ended up spending a about a week there with three different sets of family. It was a lot of fun and we really didn't want it to end.

We thought the boys were old enough for a show this year and picked a magic show during the day geared for kids. Emma and I stayed at the hotel and took a nap. Turns out we missed a great show. Jeremy tipped the guy for good seats and boy that's not all they got. Jeremy was picked to be on stage for most of the show. Jeremy was not to happy about it but I bet the boys will NEVER forget it. After the show they were invited back stage to meet the performer and have him sign items that they purchased and t-shirts. I wish I had a photo!!!


Here is the kids in the pool, one of there favorite things to do is swim and order fruity drinks from the pool waiters.

A little breakdown that even fish crackers couldn't help.

We also LOVE the bathtub. I still do not understand how the bubbles got that out of control. They enjoyed it.

I am not sure that I will ever get the kids to take a photo together without a fight. I finally put the camera away and just enjoyed our trip. Sometime the camera just gets in the way or takes away from the moment. That is why we such a lack of photos this trip.

We hit Ethel M's factory every trip. Here is the kids with there goodies! (Very expensive goodies I might add, this place has nothing on Disneyland when it comes to expensive trinkets)

We will see you soon Vegas..... until then be good.
