Jenn and Courtney already did a fabulous job recapping our fantastic time in Las Vegas last weekend.
Since I don't want to be too redundant, I'm just going to post some of the pictures that haven't been shared yet, and quickly share the highlights for me.
So, if you want a more detailed story, be sure to check out the sisters' blogs. :)
Oh, by the way, something that was NOT a highlight, but has to be mentioned, is the trip to DIA that almost made us miss our flight to Vegas. That was the MOST stressed I have EVER been when it comes to making a flight, and the closest I've ever gotten to missing one. I don't want to experience that again. No bueno!
I should mention that these are in chronological order, not in order of significance. ;)
Highlight #1, arriving safe and sound in Las Vegas. I didn't know if it would happen, but here we are in front of the famous "Welcome To Las Vegas" sign just happy to be on the ground and not running around like crazy people.
Highlight #2, eating at the delicious Gonzalez Y Gonzalez inside our NY NY hotel (the hotel with the most character, in my opinion). It was our first meal since breakfast, and it was already dinner time. Everyone enjoyed the delicious food and ah-mazing margaritas!
Highlight #3, the fountain show in front of the Bellagio. SO fun!
Highlight #4, the Soul2Soul concert with Faith Hill and Tim Mcgraw. I could listen to their voices all day.
Me with the birthday girl, my little sis Alli.
She (and her hubby Brian) were the reason we were in Vegas to begin with. :)
And of course, the 4 sisters. :)
Highlight #5, Vegas during the day, walking along the strip, and visiting the M&M store.
When I saw Buzz and Woody from Toy Story, I simply HAD to get a picture with them to show Ethan.
He's obsessed with these characters right now.
Highlight #6, lunch at Max Brenner's with my Aunt Dareth and her friends. Loved the food and company!
Highlight #7, dinner at the Stratosphere or "top of the world" restaurant. Maybe the most fancy restaurant I've ever eaten at. Here's the whole "gang". :)
And, last but definitely not least, highlight #8 is winning $100! Never thought that would happen.
Really, the best part was getting a little vacation with my mom and sisters. We had a wonderful time even if, like Jenn said, there was too much "naked" in Vegas. Did not like the naked or the smell of smoke everywhere. ;) The rest of the trip was a blast though, and it was a weekend to remember.
And, Happy 30th Birthday to Alli and Brian this month! You two are great sports for letting us crash your Vegas party! ;)
P.S. Caleb and Jon are the best husbands for letting Jenn and I get away and for taking care of our babes while we were gone. As much as I loved this trip, I was happy to be home and hug/hold my babies.

You got some great pictures! I haven't seen some of these. What did Ethan say when he saw Buzz and Woody? Such a fun trip, and I'm so glad we got to experience it together.
I was just about to ask the same question as Jenn, what did Ethan think of your picture?
