Las Vegas...a place we never have to see again.

Oh, don't get me wrong!!  We had a wonderful week together.  We played at the pool, ate good food (hey-oh, Jack in the Box), relaxed, and played with Mimi and cousins!  All things that could be done equally well in another location.



 The mile long hallway to our room got the kids nice and tired




Las Vegas has only a couple of redeeming qualities (in my opinion), the Bellagio fountains, the Dale Chihuly art in the Bellagio, and Trader Joe's.  Oh! And Jack in the Box.  I love their tacos.  My lunchtime ritual this week was an oreo shake (the best), two tacos with hot sauce, and a Diet Coke.  Delicious.


On our way to and from Vegas we got to stay with Jake and Annie and see their girls, Nellie and Gracie.  The kids loved playing together and were sad to leave them.  Jake and Annie even came down to Vegas on Thursday to swim in the awesome hotel pool and we also decided to check out the strip (not the best idea).

 Sophie's favorite part about the pool--lounging and snacks!

Jonah discovered his fins on this trip and became quite daring in the water (for Jonah)



 It was such a beautiful big pool!

 Here we are at Treasure Island, before the obscene "Pirate Show" began.

The Bellagio gardens were stunning, especially with the Dale Chihuly blown glass everywhere!

Jonah's face here typifies his general mood for the entire week.  Tired.

How fun. Vegas definitely has the good and bad but nice hotels, pools and good food is prob the only good part-oh and the shopping. Sophies little bikini is adorable! And of course, you always looks amazing!

Hey, how do you like your stroller? We're looking into the sit n stand but not the double one. Have you liked having the two seats?
