Vegas Vacation Day 7


Today was our last full day in Vegas. We bought bagels in the morning and slurpees at night. We will certainly miss being so close to every fast food possibility! We played games, and enjoyed our last 'relaxing' day! We had an enjoyable time. The condo was fabulous and we loved having Walmart a hop skip and jump away!

We are headed back to reality - we didn't do enough homework with the kids and will be paying the price when we get back home. Luckily, with a washer and dryer in the condo, there won't be any laundry to do for at least a day!

Vegas Vacation Day 6

Today we had trouble decided what exactly to do with the day! We finally decided to go to the Ethel M Chocolate factory and see the Cactus (Botanical) Garden attached. The kids had a good time picking out delicious expensive chocolate! We checked out the Cacti (yes, that's plural for Cactus) - Jared and I had a debate about it! And of course, I won! Okay, for two or more Cacti, you can say, cactuses, cactus, or the most used, cacti. I LOVE it when I win. (He later whopped me in Yatzee - so all is fair!)

We then went to the Silverton Casino where there is a huge fish tank with sting ray, a small tiger shark, lots of fish and some pretty cool mermaids that show up and interact with those outside the tank. It was pretty cool. We then went into the Bass Pro Shop with is attached. We looked at all the stuffed animals and all the cool hunting and fishing supplies. They also had another cool fish tank with a fish as big as Gunnar. Pretty cool!

We then came back to the condo, ate ice cream, chocolates and of course, went swimming. How much better does it get! :)

Cannon had just gotten up from napping in the car and Ryker was mad because we didn't get him the type of chocolate he wanted.
