Las Vegas

 

A few months back we decided to take a weekend trip to Vegas with John's sister and her family. Since we both own time shares it's a pretty inexpensive vacation. We left on Thursday afternoon and came back on Sunday afternoon. It was a great trip. Very relaxing. 

I found this fun website called Strayboots.com  It's an interactive walking tour or better known as a scavenger hunt. Some of the clues were solving riddles and some where finding an object and taking your photo with it. It was the perfect way to see the "kid safe" side of the city. 

The kids really enjoyed it and so did we! 

 The Coca-Cola store

 

M & M Store

This Hello Kitty street performer was on the side walk as we were walking by. The girls were SO EXCITED to see her!!! Of course Madison would not get near her but wanted me to take a picture of her.

We had to go to a certain store and find this particular hat.

 Our HAPPY family!

On Saturday morning we went to John's Aunt and Uncle's house and spent some time visiting with them. I always love visiting them. They are so wonderful!! I wish they did not live so far away. 

After our visit we took the kids to see the temple. On our way we stopped and got some lunch so that we could have a picnic on the grounds. The kids really enjoyed it. It was a beautiful day for a picnic.

 

On the way back from the temple we stopped at Circus Circus for some FUN!

Charles had a rough time not winning. But they all left with at least one toy. 

Sunday morning we got up and went to sacrament meeting at a near by ward and then headed home! It was a great trip!!!!! Thanks Burkes!!!!
