Our Vegas Trip

We got into Vegas around 12:30 their time (2:30 at home). Chris' cousins Eric and Ben picked us up. We drove down the strip on the way to our hotel. The lights were so amazing! We got to our hotel room at the Red Rock Casino around 2:30. There was a bottle of champagne, and a bottle of milk with some yummy cookies waiting on a table for us!

Friday morning we met Chris' cousin Kathy and her three boys, Remington, Sterling, and Windham, in the lobby. Dylan and the boys connected right away. The 7 of us and Ben all went to a cafe in the hotel for breakfast. Eric is a manger there and he was able to eat with us too. After breakfast we took the boys to see the awesome pools at the Red Rock. From there we went to the Hover Dam. The scenery was amazing. We've never seen anything like it. After that we went over to the Mirage Hotel to visit the Dolphin Habitat and Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden. Next we headed back to Kat's house. Dylan spent the night with his cousins. That night the adults went to the Wynn Hotel/Casino to dance at the Tryst Night Club. After that we went to The Palms to dance at Rain and eat at Lucky 24/7 dinner.

Saturday we spent most of the day hanging at Kathy and Shawn's house. The kids had so much fun. Shawn made us an awesome dinner! The boys wanted Dylan to stay with them again. Kathy, Eric, Ben, Chris, and I went out again Saturday night. First we went to the Ghost Bar at the Palms. Then we went to Vince Neil Ink on the strip. Chris and I both decided to get a tattoo of Cedie's name. I got mine on my wrist and Chris got his on his forearm. After that we went to the Luxor. That place was cool! Its in the shape if a pyramid. Eric, Chris, and I had to check out the inclinator (the elevator goes side ways and up!). We all ate at a cafe in the casino. We laughed so hard and had a lot of fun just kidding around.

Sunday we headed back over to Kathy's. Shawn, Chris, and the boys hung out at the house most of the day watching NASCAR. Kathy and I went shopping at an outlet mall. We all met up for dinner at PF Changs. We went back to the house for a little while and then we were off to the airport.

We left Vegas around 11:45 (their time) and we got back to Memphis at 5am!

Here are the pictures (in order) of our trip:
