Vegas Pictures

Ok so, like I said, I didn't hardly have my camera during the trip. Here are some of the pictures I have and some from my Mom and sister's blog. To those of you who have already seen them...sorry!

The family in front of the Coke glass elevator on the strip. This was where my mom got her purse stolen! :-/

Of course we stopped the second my dad saw a Harley store. He just HAD to buy Hope a Harley shirt. When Grandpa gave it to her she was SO excited! It was so cute, she ran up to give him a big hug!!!

This is the only decent picture we have from inside the M&M store. Pretty sweet car! We came out of here so excited because we got a free M&M dispenser, when we shared our enthusiasm they all laughed...you have to spend $45 bucks to get it! HA HA

At MGM they have Lions! It was so cool. There is this little walkway that you can go under and the lions are just hanging out a foot above your face. It's crazy! It was really hard to get awesome pictures of it though.

Freemont Street and the light show! It was AWESOME!!!

My mom has been wanting to go to the driving range with Chad forever, and we finally went. Lacie hit a few balls and did a great job! Hope was such a good little girl and was content just transfering balls from one bucket to another! It was super cute!

Lance also wanted to learn and Chad gave him some of his expert lessons for cheap. Lance did great! Way to go Jack!

My dad also hit a few! He used to play a lot in his younger day, but hurt his back and hasn't for almost 20 years. He did AWESOME! I'm so proud of my cute old dad! :-) Don't worry he doesn't read this...I would be in big trouble if he did!

Marcy, Lacie, and I went to go see Lance Burton! It was nuts...how the freak...that's all I have to say! :-) Anyway, it was tons of fun. Marcy Ray went and sat through the time share shpeel for free tickets and Ray gave his away and we got to go have a girls night! It was tons of fun! Thanks again Ray!!!

It was a super fun trip...now only 3 days until we leave for our cruise!!!! Holla!!!

Viva Las Vegas

Last week we went down to Vegas and spent some time with the fam. It was so much fun to see Lance, Lacie and Hope! (We miss you guys!!!) Unfortunately we have practically no pictures because most of the time I just opted not to bring my purse...one more thing for me to set down and forget about! But we went to the M&M store, which was LOTS of fun. We went into the Coke store...and no I do not have an addiction!! At least I'll die happy...that's all the matters! :-) We did Freemont Street which by the way is AWESOME. I'm not a big Vegas fan, but if you are going it's a must do! Plus they have a Tony Romas!!!!!
My Aunt Debbie and Uncle Joe who recently moved down to St. George drove down and we went to the temple. It was really neat. It is a beautiful temple!!!! We did the outlets, MGM (saw the lions that was way cool!!!), and Saturday we had a girls night and me, Marcy, and Lacie went and Lance Burton! It was tons of fun! Thanks Ray for sitting through that boring seminar and then giving your tickets away!!! :-) Chad even got to go golfing, and has come to the conclusion that Utah is still the best! **cheaper too**
Anyway, there was lots of fun stuff and of course we were lost several times, my mom got her purse stolen and she still says..."it's part of the experience"! On the way back home we stopped in St. George for dinner with Uncle Joe and Aunt Debbie, and saw their cute little house. We had to scope it out because they are on a golf course and invited us to come stay with them anytime...you can bet Chad will take them up on their offer. It was a great little break now I just have to get my head back into school for a week until we leave for our cruise! I'm so excited!!
