Vegas Baby!!!

We are on our way to Viva Las Vegas! YIPEE!!!!
Yes we saw Love, Yes, it was AMAZING!!! Especially if you grew up with the Beatles music running through your veins since birth like I did! (my dad is un-arguably the worlds BIGGEST beatles fan!- I kinda like them a bit myself :))
L-O-V-E It is ALL you need!
This was my first Cirque Du Soleil experience... amazing! However I did turn to Justin at one point and ask him if I was on drugs... Truly a magnificent experience!
Rockin in out with The Beatles Rock Band

Worlds most giant toy store! F.A.O. Shwartz. So much fun!
Here fishy fishy! This restaurant was totally disgusting but we did enjoy the millions of gold fish staring at as while we ate. Especially the neato ones that swam upside down!
A really, REALLY large statue of David!
This is what my dad likes to call 'the underground blue sky tunnels' They totally trip him out and he loves hanging out inside while feeling like he is outside!!!
My cute little fam. We missed Gug in Cali and Paige and the kids- at home with pnemonia :(



Ok here we go... This was probably on my top 5 best nights of my life! I have always been in love with The Phantom of the Opera! When I was a little kid I would borrow my dad's soundtrak and listen and sing and oh it is the best music in the Universe. Props to Andrew Lloyd Webber. When the movie came out I think I saw it like 5 times in theaters and many more at home! I LOVE the Phantom! I have wanted to see it on Broadway forever!!! My dream finally came true!!!!!
I literally had a ginormacus (kannon's new fav. word) smile and goose bumps the entire time! Avery (who loved Love) said it was the worst two hours of his life, It was the best two of mine!
Thank you mom and dad for making my life complete now!!!!!
The beautiful and bright city of Vegas from atop the Stratosphere!

Being flung a bajillion feet in the air- a very thrilling experience!
As usual lots of yummy food!
My lil bro is in love with Rocky
And unfortunately I enjoy Coyote Ugly! I'm finally old enough to actually go in and it was closed :( That is probably a good thing right!

At the end of a long walking but fantastic trip the boys (yes, just the boys) all got massages at a speedy spa at the airport!

We had a GREAT time! Thank you so much to mom and dad for all the fun!

I am however always glad to be home! Especially to smell the clean air and go to church (I was feeling like I needed to after being in Sin City, lots of fun but lots of ick too!) Makes me thankful for all the fun things I get to do but even more thankful for my small little insignificant Utah life- I happen to really love my life. Good to be home!

P.S. I was very thankful that the plane ride home occurred without incident. I believe I neglected to tell anyone about the wonderful experience on the flight home from Chicago where I dumped all of Justin's fresh noodles and orange chicken all over a cute old grandma and made the entire plane full of people wait to get seated while I cleaned it up... shortly thereafter I spilled my glass of fresca all over Justin and myself. I have been this way since I was a kid and I don't see it changing... If it is full, I will spill it! Or knock it over, or heave it across the room, or the plane, or the restaurant...
