Vegas

Over Labor Day we decided to head to Vegas for a break. We went down with The Watson's and had a great time. We stayed at Excalibur, it was nice and kid friendly (other then the smoke). We went to the pool everyday, it was a nice pool with a water slide. The kids loved it. Marshall had his floaties on and would go down the slide, it would put him under just a bit he would get up swim to the stairs and go again. he did this over and over the entire time at the pool. Kambria liked the water and liked to be held the entire time. The bottom level of our hotel has an arcade/game area. we let the kids play a few games and they won some stuffed animals. We also went and walked around the outside Mall in vegas. They have a huge play area for the kids, it was fun for the kids but so super hot. One of the nights we walked the strip to see the shows. My favorite always is Bellagio. The kids really liked it as well. We had such a fun time. We drove down on Friday afternoon and came home on Tuesday.

We are super thankful for our safety. When we got to Vegas and got out of the car we noticed that our tires were pretty baled and knew they would need to be replaced before winter. On our drive home we stopped in Beaver to fill up on gas. We went to a different gas station then normal. This particular station had a tire shop hooked to it, and one of the workers just happened to be emptying the garbage by us. He looked at our car and then came to my window. I rolled it down and he asked where we were headed. I answered SLC, he said your tires are not safe at all. Did you know there is metal showing. WHAT, I had no idea they were that bad. He said he would change over our spare tire for free because he didn't want us to get in an accident. We pulled into the shop and two of our tires were super super bad, the other two not great but would make it home. Well we got 4 new tires and I can't tell you how much better the van runs. It is a huge difference. But I really am thankful that for whatever reason we went to the different station and the guy happened to notice our tires. It makes me sick to think what could have happened to us had we been driving 75 mph and had a tire blow.



In front of the Bellagio, I love this picture of marshall.

Eating some well deserved ice cream. Kambria was just eating and Jake said say cheese, she stopped and stuck her tongue out. That little terd.

At the park at the mall. Notice the red cheeks, it was soooo hot.

Sponge Bob was at our hotel.

At the forrum shops.
