Road Trip

It's Thursday night about 10:00 and I just got home from school to find John still awake waiting for me. He asks that while he's working the next day if I can pack some clothes for a weekend trip he had planned. (I love when he does these kind of things) After a while of not letting me in on the destination, he finally gave in and told me that we would be going to Vegas and all arrangements have been made. I have only ever been to Vegas once and it was for about 2 hours so I was really excited to go as a family. Now travelling with a 13 month old is hard enough already but add to that taking a way her pacifier, lets just say it was a long....er drive.
Other than that Ashlynn was truly well behaved and had a wonderful time; we all did. We walked up and down the strip, twice. A lot of walking. We stayed in an older hotel, the Riviera, but it was basically just a bed, we were always out. My favorite part was just how fun the atmosphere was and the different themes of the hotels and just being there as a family. Another favorite was going out to a show. Cirque Du Soleil LOVE. The entire show is played to songs recorded by the Beetles. John and I both really enjoyed it. Although we don't drink or gamble, there was plenty do do to make Vegas a great trip.

    That is awesome that you guys take spontaneous trips! Vegas is fun-my mom lives there and Scott and I lived there the first nine months we were married, it was awesome because there was always something to do! Your pictures are great! Did Ashlynn go to the show also?
