Viva Las Vegas

Well Chris and I decided to take a little road trip down to Vegas to see Jared and Stacey. We didn't get to go to St. George on the last trip and they aren't coming up for THanksgiving so it gave us a perfect excuse to go and visit them at their beautiful home. They live just outside of Vegas in Henderson. Their home is absolutely darling, they have done a great job of decorating and really making it feel like a home. We had a very busy couple of days and by the time we were heading home we were pooped. When you are looking at the pics you have to look at them from the bottom up (I'm still figuring out the whole picture thing on the blog.)
Anyways we got there Friday night at about 6:00 Vegas time and got Chilis to go and watched a really funny movie called "Closing Escrow" we stayed up way too late talking and just enjoying seeing Jared and Stacey again.
The pics should explain the rest of the trip!

We had so much fun and we were very sad to leave! Thanks guys for a great weekend! See ya at Christmas.

We couldn't believe it but it actually rained. Lydia woke up really early on SUnday so we just watched to storm roll in!



We played a little baseball...it was really fun, I haven't played in a long time!



Getting ready to go Play at the park!




What a cutie! She was so content just riding around looking at all the sights!




Poor Lydia kind of got cut off in this pic!

The lake

Jared and Stacey were so nice to take us around even though i'm sure they have seen it a million times.

On the dock checking out prices of rentals...ya too much for just an hour!




Jared and Stacey took us to "Lake Las Vegas" which is this cool community built around a man made lake. It is very posh with all kinds of eclectic shops and other fun attractions. (This is where Celine Dion lived while she was there doing her show!)

This is my favorite pic of her holding on to grandpa's finger

Baby Girl

Baby Girl
This is our baby girl at 16 weeks. It was such an amazing thing to see her moving and count all of her fingers and toes for the first time. I know I bawled and Chris won't admitt it, but he was pretty emotional as well.

It's a girl!

It's a girl!

She's going to be a dancer
