Vegas Trip #1

On my break from school, at the end of April, I decided to take the kids down to Las Vegas to visit my sister Stacie and her husband Matt. I was VERY lucky that our cousin Kristina was able to come down with us at a moments notice. ...there is no WAY in heck i could have done it on my own. She helped me out so much!... We didn't take very many pics, but from what we did take, here are a few..

I bought Chickadee and Chickadoo these windmill things. They were quite the Hit i must say. :) and this park didn't have ordinary grass.. it was turf. weird huh? i thought so.



 Later that night we went to see where Matt worked. Matt is a helicopter pilot and takes people on tours from Vegas to the Grand Canyon. Orry, was in HEAVEN. Heaven i tell ya! Alivia really liked it a lot too. :)

what? you think Alivia's smile isn't natural?...we're working on it. :)



 Words can not express how Orry is feeling in this picture.
 The pilot let us take a little tour of the airplane...

 ...It didn't last long..


 Orry EVEN got to turn the propeller.(?)
I'm pretty sure this was one of the best nights of his life. :D I love seeing my kiddies happy!

A couple days later we went to the M&M store/ factory. their elevator was a JOKE. next time, we're gonna have to say bye-bye to the stroller when we go in. 

 Prices in this place were ridiculous. Alivia didn't want anything, she wasn't feeling too well (refer to the previous post) so that meant i could spend a couple extra bucks on Orrys Souvenir.  

 put two quarters and a penny in and it come out pretty cool looking and flat. :) he might not have loved the end product that much REALLY, but he loved the process of getting to it.
 Orry and Alivia's first big screen experience was in 3D. yeah, they didn't wear the glasses very long. but they made it the whole way through. (maybe like 8 minutes... its a start.)
 We went to go to the Cheesecake Factory on a Friday night... Yeah the wait was huge, so we ended up going to a Chocolate restaurant... who would say no to that??
we took a few pics by the fountains... they LOVED the fountains. 




 Favorite Pic of the Whole trip. :) what a cute Bum. 
 Thanks for letting us come and play Stace!
