Well this year for our 13th wedding anniversary we dicited to take the girls to Las Vegas!! For those who dont know my mother in law lives there and we stay with her. Ellie has been there quite a few times but it has been a while, and little miss Hailey has only been once befor when she was a baby so we thought it would be fun to go on a little family vacation!! We left on fri. around 12pm and got there at about 5pm (Vegas time) and the 1st thing the girls did was get their suits on and jumped into the pool, the water was PERFECT! We stayed home @ Kathy's that night had pizza and swim. On sat. we took the girls down to the strip, we had breakfast at the rain forest cafe in the MGM Grand, it was REALLY COOL. The animals came to life and there would be a tropical storm every so often, then we saw the baby lions, soo cute! We went to M & M World, Hailey LOVED IT!! We shopped and watched a 3D mini movie, we then we went to the coke store, kinda lame. Next stop was the NASCAR Cafe, Reed and Ellie went on the roller coaster, Ellie said it was AWESOME!! while they did that Hailey and I went to the arcade and played games! Later that night we took them down to Freemont Street for more shopping and to watch the light show, it's pretty cool. When that was done Kathy and Ralph took the girls back to the house so Reed and I could gamble for a while ,that turned out to be about 5 hours, but all good cuz we walked away a little bit ahead!! Sun. came pretty fast, we were gonna go home but we decited since mon. was a holiday we should stay, and we did, so SUPRISE we swam ALL morning and afternoon, it was TONS of fun, after that we were going to take the girls to the Stratosphere but it was too windy and they werent sending anybody up, BUMMER, so instead we took the girls to the Excalibur and played LOTS of games at the little carnival. As always the fun had to end and we had to come home, but it's always nice to be home!! Thanks so much Pretty Grandma and Ralphie for an AWESOME trip!! We love you and will hopefully see you soon!!!

Ah, that sounds like so much fun. I haven't been to the Strip in about 10 years. Dan just went for work for his first time last month. I'm sure a lot has changed since I've been there! Lucky for you, you have family to stay with!
You guys are so lucky to have babysitters in the best city in the world! Did you get a new tat? And Happy Anniversary! 13 years holy shiz!!!
