Vegas {day three}

It was surprisingly easy to wake up the next morning; it was awfully sad that it was the day we had to say goodbye but Hope had big plans for a BBQ with my brother, sister-n-law and niece and nephew.  The weather was amazing.  So amazing that we spent the entire afternoon outside and only came in when we all got too hot.  The food was amazing thanks to both Hope and Jon and the company couldn't have been better.

Oh these sweet My Little Pony toys scattered around made me miss my girls so much.

Olivia (who was a pony herself) had THE BEST neigh I've ever heard come out of a child.  I was totally impressed.

I'm such a sucker for food.

Connor and Olivia were so sweet together.  This was the first time I'd seen them play together.  It was really adorable how she looks up to him.

Love these pictures of the boys talking ... flying, beer, food and crossfit.  What else is there?

And at last the gorgeous dessert.  Thank you Hope, Jon, Bill and Tanya for such a wonderful weekend getaway.  Such a great last day and a fabulous trip.

Vegas {day two}

New Years Eve.  After waking up at a rediculous early hour, we all headed to a Mexican resturant for late breakfast/early lunch and then took the 13 mile driving tour around Red Rock.  Man was it gorgeous out.

Of course we stopped for some model shots ....

And some not so model shots ... turn your attention to Jon in the background.  Haha.

After getting dolled up once again, we headed to the casino bar for our New Years Eve pre-funk.  I couldn't help but get some pictures of these two hotties sitting next to me at the bar.

Hot and buff ....

And Hope on her phone ... we were boring her ;)

Back at Hope and Jon's for the REAL party and midnight countdown.

I'm not actually upset ... this is me actually trying to be sexy.  Fail.

Love this series of Chris ... 10 years and he's still the most handsome man in the world to me.  Please don't gag.

Hanging inside with Hopey while the boys enjoy their cigars.  Thanks for this picture Hope ... might be one of my favorites of myself!

Jon, you have a tiny something in your teeth ... but you are still adorable.  Oh, we laughed about this photo for hours.  Classic Jon.  Baha, love it.

And lastly me and my favorite boys back again at last!



Vegas {day one}

A collection of photos from our first day in Vegas (minus my iPhone pictures).  I am a little upset looking back on this first day when I came to the realization that the ONLY pictures I got with my brother and sister-n-law were with my phone.  Sadly I have zero to blog on ... but got a couple for my {day three} blog. 

We had such a good day {day one}.  We got in nice and early at 9 o'clock so were able to meet up with my brother Bill and his lovely wife Tanya for lunch and then head to the Lavo restaurant for dinner ... followed by the top level of The Hotel that had the BEST view of the strip I've ever seen and then followed by an Irish pub (this is where the pictures ended) and a very long taxi ride back to Hope and Jon's amazing house.  New years eve blog on it's way ...

Oh and of course I had to get a shot of us ALL that this amazing bar on our iPhones ... nerds!
