Jesus had to go to Vegas last week because of work and I told him that there was no way that he was going to go without me, so I packed up the kids and caught a ride with him. I'm so glad we did...I needed a vacation!
I generally do not like Vegas at all! I think that there is a cloud of sin that hovers over the city...there's porn everywhere and that just disgusts me beyond anything! I wasn't excited to take my k
ids into that, but I figured we could find some fun things to do while their dad was at work.
As you can tell in this first picture, we found Jesusito's favorite cartoon in the whole world...his first word was Spongebob...no, just kidding.:)
We stayed in the Luxor and throughout the whole hotel there were amazing Egyptian statues that were fun for us to see and to pose with.:)
I think my favorite part, though, was the outings that I took with the kids. The first day we went to the Shark Reef and Jesusito said "wow" more than one can count. He loved it! We saw fish and shark, of course, but there was also a huge octopus, star fish, an alligator, a huge lizard...all sorts of things! It was great!
As many of you know, I absolutely love dolphins! We were able to go see the dolphins and tigers in the Mirage...I loved it! The dolphins there aren't trained for shows, but they are trained throughout the day, so you can see them interact with the trainers. It was really neat! They have a baby dolphin there and they are currently training him. I swear, that would be the best job!
We also went and saw the tigers and lions. What beautiful animals! They had all sorts of animals there, and of course Jesusito said "wow" more than one can count. It was fantastic!
I guess I didn't get the whole head in this shot, but it's of a tiger made out of moss of some sort. It looks like Jesusito is petting the tiger, but he's really pulling out the moss...Oh my!
So, needless to say, I now don't hate Vegas.:)

that looks like it was so much fun!! You're family is adorable :) I'm glad you guys like my quilt too :)
I'm glad that you guys had a good time!! I really liked the aquarium down there but it just took so long to get thru!! It was like a maze thru all of the casinos to get to it!
Also, did I tell you that I've touched a dolphin? I fed it 6 gross fishes. And I've touched an elephant, too. At the circus a few years ago. They had all the little kids come in a big circle while this old elephant walked around and they said if it walked past you, you could touch it. I sat in the front row and touched it first because those kids were total sissies. I didn't move until the elephant left the ring. One of the coolest days of my life.
How funny, we just went to Vegas too! Yeah, there is a lot of yuck there, but there is a lot of good clean fun there is well. Might as well enjoy it! I am glad you had a good time!
