Vegas Vacation

This Memorial weekend we thought we'd take a little family weekend getaway to Las Vegas. It was a little different from our past experiences, this time having a 10 month old and all, but still a blast. The first night we stayed in St. George and took Sara swimming at the pool which she absolutely loved! As some of you know she has always loved water and she couldn't get enough of it on our little trip.
We did some lunch and shopping in St. George then headed down to Vegas. We couldn't check into our hotel when we got there so we took Sara to see the Lions at the MGM. She thought they were pretty neat and trying to get a picture of her was nearly impossible 'cause she just wanted to see them. But we finally did... Kind of-After finding out we still couldn't check into our hotel we did a little a shopping at the outlets. They told us check in was at 3:00 and we didn't end up checking in 'til like 5:00! We were a little annoyed with The Trump at first, that is... 'til we saw our room, which was definitely worth the wait.That's just a picture of the front room of our one bedroom suite. Complete with 2 bathrooms, a front room, master suite, a kitchen and dining room. Um... is this what we signed up for? I'm telling you, my husband knows how to find the deals. Can't go wrong with priceline. Come to find out our room is a $480 room which we only paid $100 for :) It was seriously so fun to have a suite and I'm so glad it was nice because with a 10 month old who still takes 2 naps in a day and has an 8:00 bedtime that's where a lot of our time was spent, walking around in the robes they provided for us and ordering "in room dining". We definitely treated ourselves right.Since we don't have a pool or even a bath tub at home we took full advantage by going swimming 3 times and probably taking 4-5 baths. Man I miss having a bath tub at home, it seems like Sara does too...

So that was our Memorial weekend. We finished it off by coming home and visiting some graves and attending Grandma's annual BBQ. I hope everyone else's was just as fun!

Too bad we were all puking while you guys were down here. I wish we could've seen you, but our home was not safe for anyone to be in... Unless you wanted to go home puking! Looks like you had fun!
