Vegas Trip

So, we took a trip to Vegas leaving our girls for the first time. We decided to accompany Brent and Lori for the Vegas marathon (that kind of makes it sound like Ryan and I ran the marathon, but we decided it was better that we didn't). The first five pictures are just random Vegas shots. The water fountain arch was a favorite and so was the fountain show. I guess I'm a fan of shooting water. The picture of Brent and Lori was taken at the Cheesecake factory on Ryan's Bday (Brent is doing the "Criss Angel pose"). The next couple pictures were taken at the marathon. Congratulations to the random bride and groom that got married while running the marathon (What a great idea...elegant yet time efficient). Brent and Lori did awesome...(it's mind-blowing that anyone could run that far). Finally, we were greeted at home by our two lovely children in pj's with a cake for Ryan. All in all we had an awesome trip using as many people for free things as possible. (We borrowed a car from Ryan's parents, we stayed in Lori's client's house, and we definitely took advantage of the free babysitting.) Thanks to everyone who let us take advantage of you.

I love that you took a picture of the Dale Chihuly art glass instillation in the Bellagio. I love Chihuly's work!

What a great trip:)

We were just at that exact Cheesecake factory! Unfortunately I ordered a really great roasted vegetable pizza with goat cheese and couldn't finish it because the cheese tastes like Nigel's bottles smell after I leave them in his bed for a couple hours after a nap. (He drinks goat milk.)

I hope your meal was better.
