Back To Texas...but first

With three days behind us, and three ahead of us, the fun in Vegas continued.  I mean after all, we are in the city that never sleeps.  So, what's the hold up.  Come on girls...

you look great!

We were off for another day of shopping.  This time we

DSC_1658

shopped until we almost dropped.  The girls found lots of bargains including these

DSC_1657

great shoes.

With no time to waste, we headed back to the

DSC_1490-2

room, made some sandwiches, and regrouped.  Then, it was off to

DSC_1660

Circus Circus and The Adventure Dome.  While the

DSC_1690

big kids were way up in the air going round and round, Caden

was sizing himself up for some

DSC_1683

rides and

DSC_1827

jumping of his own.

When everyone was completely worn out, it was time for some

DSC_1906

refreshment.

Again, after a little sleep, we headed out for our last full day of fun.  We still needed to make stops at the

DSC_1933

M&M Store, the

DSC_1938

Coca Cola Store, and don't forget the

DSC_1965

gondola ride at the Venetian.

I hope you are tired yet, because our day, which has now turned into afternoon has just begun.  We still needed to see

DSC_1982

the beautiful fountain inside the Palazzo,

DSC_1987

kiss some frogs,

DSC_2030

indulge in some dinner and say

DSC_2026

"no thanks", to dessert.

Then, it was off the

DSC_2025

highlight of the night.  Sorry, wish I could have taken just one picture inside the show.  Just believe me when I say it was awesome!

Again, after just a little sleep, we are to our final day and Jennifer still had just a couple of items left on her to do list.  We packed up and checked out of

DSC_2087

our condo by 10:00.  We made our way to see the

DSC_2104

Shark Reef at

DSC_2093

Mandalay Bay.

The kids had a great time

DSC_2140

petting the

DSC_2145

sting rays.  Then we were off to ride the monorail to see a couple more of the hotels.

But, too soon...it was time to

DSC_2184

say good-bye to the city that never sleeps.

After lunch, we returned the car, took the bus to the airport, rode the tram to our gate and before we knew it...we were

DSC_2179

off to Texas.

What a great week!  Thanks kids for including Poppa and I in all the fun!
