Las Vegas Trip

Las Vegas Trip

April was a very busy month (which is probably why I'm just now posting about it).  We had something big every weekend.  The week after Easter we drove up to Las Vegas to see Dustin's parents who were there for a conference.  We stayed at their timeshare with them.  The kids always love staying at "the hotel" as they call it.


They love helping with the luggage cart.  Looks like all we forgot was the kitchen sink!


We went to the M&M factory.  The boys loved this race car of course.



Every color of M&M you could imagine!  We thought it would be fun to get some colors you don't usually see, but they were way too expensive.




Waiting for the water show at the Bellagio with grandma and grandpa!

 


Olivia liked the fountains!

 


Inside the Bellagio they had the garden area decorated with a Holland theme.  Nathan was mesmerized by the waterfall and Olivia loved the yellow flowers.






It was barely warm enough to swim at the resort when the sun came out for a bit.  The kids tried out the wading pool but we were too chicken to get in the big pool.


So we all ended up swimming in the fun hot tub.  It turned out to be warm instead of hot which was good so the kids could swim in it too.






On Sunday we went to Hoover Dam before we drove home.  We finally got to see the new bridge they had just started to build when we last saw it back when we first moved to California.  Being an Engineer, Dustin was especially excited to see it. 



Kids being silly.




                                                      They were pretty tired by the end.


View from on the bridge.  Daniel was very nervous to go out on the bridge.  It was a little scary to be up so high behing only a railing.
