las vegas

We visited with Adam's family last weekend over Mother's Day in Las Vegas.
We stayed in a hotel close by Amy's house since the whole family was coming.
The boys were so excited about the hotel.
Elliott is showing his stunned "I-can't-believe-how-nice-our-hotel-is" face.
And I never get sick of seeing these little guys smooshed in one bed...
...until they can't stop wrestling.



We got to see Miss Kenzie's soccer game and play in the hot Las Vegas sun- it was 97 degrees there!

Adam talking to his long-lost buddy Tanner.
He and Megs came in from California.

The kids slip-n-slided to their heart's content.













Linc was a little pro on the 4-wheeler.
I'm in love with their HUGE backyard.



Lincoln, Collin, Kenzie
Linc and Collin were so funny together- little buddies having a picnic.




Nothing wrong with two buddies driving a pink jeep...
Collin was sure to bring the snacks along.








Later that night, the sprinklers came on and the DRY boys decided to get wet again.




Cute silly boys. They are 3 months apart and Collin is so tall!





The kids put on a light-show for us- here they are practicing.

more practice
Collin & the dragon
Kenzie losing her bunny ears- she was a great director.


The GRAND FINALE.




We put the kids to bed at Amy's, got a sitter and went to the 10 PM show of The Avengers.
Cody wanted to see it in IMAX 3D, so we did.
We loved it.
The theater was at our hotel, so afterwards, Adam and I just went to our room.
It was Mother's Day the next morning and I feel horrible that all the kids were up by 6:30 AM at Cody and Amy's house!!
Adam and I packed up our things, ate at the buffet and met up with the rest of the family later.
We visited until everyone left for church at 1:00 and then we headed home- a 6 hour drive.

Baby Will finally sat in on this one, and Miss Gabby was napping just inside.

I agree they have an awesome backyard! I love all the amazing shots you got. The water shots on the slip and slide, and the glow sticks. They look so cool. Sounds like you guys had a great time :)
