Weekend Getaway!

We spent our weekend in St. George/Vegas! Luckily, my mom, Dave, York, Jenny, and their cute girls wanted to head down the same weekend! We had such a great time with them! We traveled down Friday afternoon, and shopped and hung out on Friday night. Saturday morning, we headed to meet some friends in Vegas. We ate lunch at the In N Out with the Dean's and Butterfields, and headed to a local park to let the kids play. We stayed for an hour or two, and then headed to the Vegas Strip. I swear the strip was much smaller before we had kids! We had promised the kids that we'd see the tigers at the Mirage. Yeah, we missed them by like 5 minutes! At least the kids were pretty forgiving! We redeemed ourselves about a million hours later when we finally reached M&M World. We didn't do a heck of a lot there, but the kids loved it! They each picked out an M&M gumball-type dispenser and they love them! There's a whole lot of stuff we didn't have time to cover, so it looks like we'll be heading back soon!

You definitely picked the better time to go...we went over President's Day and the weather was awful...so cold and rainy. It looks like you had fun!

One of the positives about living in UT is that Vegas is not too far away, but not close enough to invite all the riff raff in. I love Vegas getaways.
