Vegas BABY!!

Our friends who live in CALI.......invited us to Vegas with them & stay in a nice resort!! Of course we said YES....we see them about once a year.  It was going to be over the 4th of July weekend......can you say HOT!! .......but .......it ended up not being as hot as I expected.....it was just right......102-104

Our friends weren't going to be to Vegas until Saturday so we decided to leave on Friday & drive to St.  George to see Kevin's grandparents.  

We took off in our rented KIA......we have had some crazy stories of car problems when we have driven to California in the past......so we decided to rent a car.  Plus I like the idea of putting wear and tear on someone else car & not worrying about getting out car dirty &............. you get to drive different cars.......even if it is a KIA :)

It was fun to see his grandparents.   Kevin's mom was there also.  Her parents haven't been doing so well.....so the kids take turns going down there to be with them.  We were lucky to have her down there when we went.  

AND.....again I didn't take pictures of that......I need to have my camera on me at all times!!!

Right when we got down to St. George we decided to take the kids to a place called Fiesta Fun Center.  They had been in the car for awhile & needed some running around time.  It was like a smaller version of boondocks.....there was hardly anyone there.....it was a Ghost town...but the kids loved it.  

After we spent some time with his grandparents we drove to Logandale....which is about an hour outside of Vegas.  Kevin has a mission companion who lives there....they invited us to stay with them that night.  It was fun to meet them & hear about mission stories again.  He is a cop in Vegas! It was fun to hear all the stories & you can tell how much he loves his job.  Then in the morning we took off to Vegas!

THANKS for the nice accommodations......hopefully we will see you all again!
