Vegas Vacation - Memorial Day

Ahhhh to go to Vegas again. It is so fun! My home away from home! (and that has nothing to do with the craps tables, slot machines, or Thunder from Down Under, OK?)

It was fun even if it was quite a FULL HOUSE! Becca and Phil and Jordan and I decided to meet in Las Vegas as Michelle and Andrew's house....and then Mom and Dad wanted to come, and then Heather and Jay wanted to come, and well, why not? The more the merrier right? It was great. We went bowling (I didn't bowl, but had fun taking pictures of the little cuties and nursed Claire on a cushy chair there in the bowling ally/hotel area and she spit up all over it...nice)

Bowling at Redrock Casino: Sydney and Kaylin with their favorite "Aunt Nunu"

Jordan and the nieces and nephew and Claire

We also went to the Bellagio to see the gardens and that was really fun...it's always great to see how they change things!

Becca, Michelle, and Me...Becca's pregnant, not fat :) hehe.... and Michelle is too, but very early still so she still looks like a twig!!

A little family photo :) Note the burp cloth on Claire's Baby Bjorn. It's not so much that she's a major drooler...it's mainly that all she does all day is suck on her hands, and that creates..well...drool :)

My favorite "work of art" in the garden


And then we went to see the fountains...this one was to the theme of "Somewhere in Time" So great!

Random picture of Claire...just because getting one of her smiling is really rare!! It's like once she sees the camera, her little smiling muscles just stop working :)

We also went to this shopping area/park where there is a cool place for kids to play and these fountains for them to run around in.... Here's my sexy honey with our little sweetie in front of H&M (which we didn't go into...bummer)

And the girls were so cute and funny playing in the water! Lauren was fearless!



So, we also tried out Michelle & Andrew's pool...but can I say FREEZING???? I was going to die of Hypothermia if I got in, so I didn't :) But of course, the kids did...so funny:

It was so fun. Thank you Michelle and Andrew for your hospitality!!! You guys are so great! It was so fun to finally get a chance to hang out with Becca and Phil and their cute family too!

The pictures are so cute. I especially love the one with you and the nieces. You look really hot in that hat and Kaylin and Sydney are to die for cute. I also loved the video of Claire "attempting" to stand. Don't you hate it when they don't perform for the camera?
