OK, so it's been a month since we were in Las Vegas, but I felt like I had to go back and tell about our trip! We went with Steven's family for his uncle Thomas' 50th Surprise Birthday Party. I am super thankful that we flew direct and had Mimi and Poppi with us on the plane ride! The flight itself is about 5 hrs not counting checking in, boarding, waiting to take off, taxiing, etc... The kids were great, but we had so much luggage plus strollers and two kids that traveling was NOT quick! You should have seen us go through security holding two kids, our three suitcases, diaper bag, bookbag, my purse, an umbrella stroller, a snap n go, and Haven's car seat. Yes, we were too cheap to pay $25/bag to check the bags. Remember they make everyone take off their shoes too! It was a sight to be seen! I'm sure the people behind us said a few choice words under their breath. But we made it! We stayed at a great resort called Red Rock Resort. It had its own movie theater, bowling ally, casino, and lots of restaurants. We definitely didn't come home with a fat wallet, but we had fun spending a short time in the casino. The birthday celebration was at the resort in one of the banquet rooms and was great! I'm sure Thomas felt special and loved to have so many people make the trip out to celebrate him. I only hope I have half the party when I turn 50!
Brennan's favorite activity while we were there was pool hopping. There were about 10 pools that were different sizes and he checked them all out. His favorite was the hot pools!
We went to the strip one day and walked about 5 miles. It was HOT! It was neat to see all of the hotels. I wish we could have seen more, but pushing two strollers down the strip is not an ideal way to see Vegas.
It will definitely be a while before I hop on another plane with my two children. It was fun while it lasted!
This is classic Brennan grabbing his sister's arm! He loves to touch her!
I didn't have my camera when Brennan was swimming, but before we left, we snapped a shot of his favorite pool! We spent lots of time here.
We met Indiana Jones on the street with his snake...yikes!
Here is our family photo before the birthday party!
