Vegas Pics

So we made it home and had tons of fun and I even took a few pics not a lot cause I was too busy having fun but here are some of them!

Volcano at the Mirage!


Fountains at the Belagio!

More fountains at the Belagio!

I know you can't really see but there are 3 guys on motorcycles inside this cage it was so wicked awesome!

Chris and I on Fremont street my camera wasn't working while the show was going on but I got it working right after so this is right after the show! Anyways I might write more later but as for now ya'll just get pics!

Las Vegas!

Christopher and I are heading to Las Vegas tomorrow morning for a few days of R&R without the kids! Actually he has a Rad Tech Conference down there this weekend so the school is giving him some money to go so we thought we would take advantage of it and have a mini vacation. We are hoping to score some cheap Cirque Du Soleil tickets and I have looked up pretty much every free show and attraction that we can go to so we are totally excited! I also looked up a bunch of food places so we have a list of all the cheap buffets now we just have to decide which ones are likely to have the best food! It is supposed to rain most of the time that we are there but at least it will be in the 60's and 70's instead of freezing rain! I will update with pictures (that is if I remember my camera!) when I get back so you will all be jealous and motivated to take some time off for yourselves!

Valetine's Day music

So I have a new Valentine's Day playlist and I am taking requests. I think everybody has a different idea of good love songs, so look at the list and if there is something there that you think is missing let me know I might not add it but if I like it too I will! I am looking forward to hearing people's favorite love songs!

Blog anniversary!

Okay so really it was on Wednesday and I remembered it on Tuesday but not again until today which is fairly typical. To be honest I had a busy Wednesday we were in Logan all day looking at road bikes for Chris and than that night had dinner with some of my cousins. It was so much fun there were 4 girl grandkids born the same year I was so whenever the far away one comes to the area we try and get together we missed one this time because apparently a date was more important;) but we had so much fun I love these girls. I didn't bring a camera so I will have to wait to post a picture until one of them does. Anyways so I guess it is a good thing to spend a blogiversary doing something fun instead of sitting on the computer blogging about it! Thanks to everyone that actually checks this and even more to those of you who leave comments it makes me feel loved! Here's to one year and hopefully a good second one!

So since none of my wonderful cousins posted a picture of the other night here is one of all four of us just 25 years ago!

Sledding!

Over the Christmas holiday my mom asked Daniel to bring some mattresses upstairs well he got them half way there before coming up with this idea! The kids loved it and had a blast! (Truth be told Daniel did too) This is definitely the best way to go sledding nice and warm! When my mom came home and saw it she had to admit it was a fun idea and we ended up doing it again the next week when Jason and his kids were up too!

Christmas

We stayed home for Christmas morning this year since we finally have a house to stay home in, we had a lot of fun and then headed down (in a massive snow storm) to BL to play with the Grandparents!

Ryan, Olivia, and Chris with their Christmas Eve presents, I made them all pajama pants. The kids were a little big but pretty good considering I lost their measurements!




Ryan and Olivia Christmas morning excited but still trying to wake all of the way up!

Olivia on her new big girl bed. I wrapped the sheets so it was pretty bare but she loves it, and is sleeping better too!

Olivia opening presents she liked opening the best she hardly looked at the presents just wanted to open more!

Ryan opening up his big Lightening McQueen it was the last present he opened and he didn't see it and he looked so disappointed, but then we pulled it out and he was shaking as he opened it he was so excited!

Ryan and Olivia with some of their haul. I made them those blankets out of fleece scarves I got at the dollar store!

So Ryan got what he asked Santa for but we ended up not getting a sucker into Olivia's stockings oops! She did get a candy cane and for a little kid that is the same as a sucker so I think we were covered!
