VEGAS!

At the beginning of the year Brad and I set goals and if we met them we decided we were going to go on a mini vacation to Las Vegas. I didn't have to work the 4th, so we went for the weekend. It was so much fun and so nice to just get away without the kids, even though we thought about them the whole time. 
There were SO many people there and it took forever to get anywhere. We walked a lot and sat in traffic a lot too. We went to Fremont Street. It's blocked off and has some shops and places to eat along it. The roof usually has lights on it at night. 
 We went to a place call the Heart Attack Grill. It was an interesting place. We only went there for a milk shake, but it was fun to watch everyone. If you are over 350 lbs you eat free... I didn't eat free. 
The shake is made with the fattiest cream and that yellow, it isn't white chocolate like Brad thought, it's a hunk of butter. The food is just cooked in the most unhealthy ways and all over sized. Defiantly not a place you'd eat at more than once. 
 When you go in you have to wear a hospital gown. Don't we look cute. 
The first night we went to an play of the old movies "Evil Dead." They are super cheesy and crappy but it was about zombies, so how could we pass it up. We were in the blood splash zone and got covered. The play was super lame but also fun. 

 The next day was spent walking... a lot of walking. We went to Hard Rock and got stuff for the kids. We went to New York New York and walked around their shops. We went to the Luxor and saw the Bodies and Titanic exhibits. I loved both of those. Both were so interesting to see. I would go back to both of them. We searched forever for this over sized candy store and finally found it. Then for dinner went to a restaurant we saw on TV. It was so good, defiantly worth it.  We sort of dressed up for it. Don't we look good?
 We drove, so the way up and back was a little long, I hate being in a car, but it was also nice to just talk with out kid interruption. 
We got the kids candy and shirts. They were so cute when we got home. It's nice to know your kids actually miss you when you're gone. 
 Jacks didn't believe us for a while that his alligator was candy and not a toy. I'm sure he grew up a few years in the days we were gone. It was a lot of fun, but I'm glad we live in the smaller town of Twin Falls.
