{our VEGAS get away}

Hanging out at the condo in Vegas

Limo from the airport

All the girls before we headed to the strip to start the long day of walking ( next time i will take my Nike's...who cares about looks!)

The guys

We went to the Mentalist...it was a crazy show but so good. This is our friend Claudene who got called up on stage.

Us on the Strip our last night there


Dinner at a Brazilian Steakhouse....oh so good!

We got to go to Vegas last weekend. It was a fast trip that we took with 4 other couples. It was just so nice to get away for a few days and not have any worries! We flew out on Thursday night and got to Vegas pretty late so we walked to a grocery store about a 1/2 mile away from our condo and bought some groceries. We didn't get to sleep until about 3 am and then we were up bright and early for the start of the first day! We walked and walked and walked...and walked. HA...i'm not kidding when i say my feet hurt SO bad by the end of the trip. We ate some good food. And Broc won $100 bucks at the slots.....that was awesome! We went to the Mentalist and to KA. Both were very good. We saw some dang funny things like this one guy was sitting there with a sign that said "My father was killed by a ninja....need money for karate lessons". Crissy gave him $2 to get our picture with him. I'll have to get a hold of that pic. Then there was this guy who was either high or drunk or both, he was smoking a cigarette and we were in a big group waiting to cross a street....well he was just talking away to himself and he set his cigarette in one of those ash tray things on the street and picked up some other cigarette and started laughing like it was so funny, then he just walked off laughing. He wasn't even smoking it but it was SO funny. Kind of sad how many messed up people there are though. Anyways we had such a good time. My stomach hurt from laughing at the end of the trip. We have some fun friends!

And why am i always so anxious to get back to my kids??? Everytime we get back, they want nothing to do with us! They both got spoiled by their awesome grandmas and grandpas.
