Our first family vacation in Vegas/Mesquite Sept 16-18

We had a chance to take a vacation to Mesquite. Chris' aunt Elise was getting married there so we decided to make two trips out of it because my dad lives in Vegas. So we stayed at his house and traveled to Mesquite for the wedding. All the family was there so it was great to see everyone. I am glad that we had the chance to go. I think we deserved it.

The first night there we went in the hot tub at my dad's apartments. Brody loved it! It was his first time in a hot tub. At first he was kinda hesitating to get in but once he got in he loved it. The rest of the time he kept asking to go in the bubbles.

The next day we went to the strip in Vegas. We had so much fun! Went to a bunch of stores and took a lot of pictures with people in costumes. After the strip we went to Pop's home of the best philly cheesesteak ever! It was so yummy. And then after the wedding we did a little bit of gambling. I won 10 dollars, my brother won 20 and my dad won 176. He won at the same table he always wins at. I don't know how it wins that much but I would love to win a lot. But winning something is better than nothing.

Congrats Elise and Randy
That night we went to Elise and Randy's wedding. She looked beautiful. The whole family was there! It was good to see everyone. The boys were so good there and had so much. Then we went home on Sunday. But before we went home we went out to breakfast before we headed out. I wished we could of stayed longer. Speaking of the boys they were so good the whole trip. They really enjoyed themselves. I have to say it was a really prefect first family vacation. Brody did so well on his potty training. He is getting so closed to be being fully potty trained. I am so proud of him!! It seemed like every since we moved into our apartments and Chris got that job it seemed like we have been doing a lot better. I don't think we would of have the opportunity to go if we were in a different situation. I am so blessed to be where we are at in life!! Thanks Elise for inviting us to your wedding we had so much! And thanks Dad for welcoming us into your home!!
