Vegas Baby!!!











This last weekend we had so much fun. One of Eric's friends won a two night stay at the Marriot in Summerland in a Golf tournament. It expired on the 30, & he wasn't going to be able to use it. So courtesy of Luke & Shayne, we had a great weekend getaway. We went down on friday afternoon & came home Sunday morning.
Friday night we went to the Bass Sporting Goods store. They have a huge aquarium, and there was a mermaid swimming in the water with the Fish. Allie was so excited. The Mermaid came right up to the glass and blew kisses to Allie, waved, and put her hands up next to Allie's. It was so fun. Then on Saterday morning we wanted to swim at our Hotel. The pool at our Hotel was under construction, so they had to send us over to the JW Marriot. Darn, what a shame!!!! It was so fun what a fancy hotel. The pool had waterfalls, a little play area for the kids, nice places to lay out. It was so Pretty and so nice. We stayed there all morning & into the afternoon. We then went home and took a nap. After the name we went to Circus Circus. Allie loved the Circus shows and is still talking about them. We saw trapeze artists, I think thats how you spell it, then we saw a lady do some tricks on a sheet hanging from the celing, then we saw some cowboy clowns, and then some African acrobats. The African acrobats were from Americas got Talent. They did some pyrmids, some dancing, limbo stick, and all sorts of gymnastics tricks. We had a great time. It was nice to get away and do something exciting.

What an awesome vacation! I have heard that hotel is super nice. I am jealous that you got to play in a super fun pool AND you got to see those people do the tricks on the sheet hanging from the celing. I want to learn how to do that so much.
I am glad you guys got to go - it looks like you had a lot of fun!!

Well when the kids go to bed at 8:00, and deans at work every night, you kinda have some time to yourself for awhile that's why i'm always on top of my blogging. What I did was a wedding tag...it means you post pictures of your's and eric's big day and give us a little background about that day. If you need help look at My sister in laws (marci) you will better understand.thanks
