Vegas Vacation...

We went on a vacation to Vegas this last week with Emily, Ryan, Noah and my mom. We had a great time. We stopped in St. George for one night to break up the drive and make it a little easier on the babies.

Treygen was so excited to be somewhere new. He was climbing all over everything and being crazy. Here he is climbing up to turn on the TV. He would run from the closet to the TV to the chair to the bed and climb on everything in between.
Playing in the pool... It was so nice to get out of the rain and get in the hot sun! Treygen didn't like the pool so much because the kids around us kept splashing. Just when he was starting to feel comfortable in the water he got smacked in the back of the head with a big ball.

We went on a drive around St. George and decided to drive to the temple...
Grandma and the babies.
Trey loved to ride on the luggage carts. He got very upset when I had to take him off.

Las Vegas.... Yes, not the most desirable place to go with babies and all but it was still fun. We stayed at the Trump hotel. It was so nice!!! Probably the nicest place I have ever stayed. The bathroom was jigantic and had these huge glass doors separating the toilet room and the shower and there was a huge tub and a TV in the mirror... Like I don't already spend enough time in the bathroom getting ready. If I had this at home I would be in there all day! ...haha It also had a king size bed that was the most comfortable bed I have ever been in and a kitchenette in our room.


This is our view out the window from our rooms. We were on the 55th floor and the elevators to get up that high were insane! They would fly up and down so fast it was like being on a theme park ride! I bet it only took us 10 seconds to make it up to our floor.
Poor little Noah got beat up by Treygen the whole time. He constantly kept trying to ride him like a horse. Because Gentry lets Treygen climb on his back and ride him around he thought he could do it to Noah. So Treygen jumped on Noah and made him hit his head. Only like 20 mintues later Treygen was running around the room like a crazy man and fell and smacked his head on the coffee table so they had twin shiners most of the time.

This is at the aquarium in the lobby of the Mandalay Bay.




We mostly just walked the strip to check out all the neat hotels and their attractions. We tried driving the strip one day and were stuck in traffic for about an hour and a half because President Obama was at Caesars Palace. I guess he had some kind of fund raiser there.
Here is the Eiffel Tower.

We hung out at the pool every morning until it got too hot to stay out. We went to this cool restaurant called the Rainforest Cafe that had tons of animals and aquariums right by the tables. The babies loved it!
Treygen and Noah really liked the strip at night! It was fun to see all the lights.Of course a picture of ESPN Zone...for you daddy!
Ryan was a good sport to be the only man and have to put up with us women! Thanks Ryan!
We went to a variety show in the Planet Hollywood and there was this big water fountain there where you wait in line. It was really cool. Treygen loved the variety show. I was worried because it was so loud that he wouldn't but he didn't even move or make a sound.
And this is what happened every night on the way back to the hotel. We really wore them out!
More pool pictures!




By the time we left Trey Man loved the water. He didn't want to get out! You might not be able to see it but he has a huge grin on his face.
This is the aquarium at the Silverton. We got there just in time to see this Mermaid. She came right up to the window and waved to the babies and played peek a boo with them. It was really neat!


This is a picture of Dori I took for Jaydin because she loves to watch "Memo" so much!
This guy was huge!

This was by the canal ride in the Venetian. You can't really see it very well but there is a boat in the canal on the bottom right. The ceilings in the Venetian and Planet Hollywood were painted like the sky and all the stores looked like we were outside walking down the sidewalk.
And the water show at the Bellagio! We only caught the last couple minutes of it so the pictures aren't that great.
On the way home Treygen helped himself to a box of crackers that was next to him. He did good for about 10 minutes...
and then dumped them everywhere.
He thought it was pretty funny. I had to pull over and take his seat out to dump it out because it was so bad. It was all down his shorts and everything.
Sorry that was so long for those of you who are still tuned in...
