"They're the world my world revolves around, my sacred piece of solid ground. The flesh and bone that gives me streangth to stand. They're the fire in my driving on, the drive behind my coming home. The living, breathing reason that I am."

Family Vacation 2011

I take ALOT of pictures....thus, family vacations yield a very high number of photos to blog! The best way to journal the massive amount of photo inventory is to go day by day!
So.....as I bask in the sun on the patio of my sunny vacation condo, I will start sharing my vacation photo overload!
DAY 1
Las Vegas, Nevada

San Diego California is about a 13 hour drive from our frigid Idaho home! So, instead of making the 13 hour drive all at once, we decided to make a pit stop in "sin city." Las Vegas isn't really the greatest vacay destination for a 3 year old, but we made the best of it and stayed at the Circus Circus, which is fairly family friendy.

We got to Vegas at about 6:00 on Saturday evening and decided to take in the circus show at the hotel. Davids parents were nice enough to make the trip with us. Aiden loves them! He and Grandma are great friends, and have had a special relationship since Aiden was just a baby. It also made me feel a little better about crowds of people....since there were 4 sets of eyes on my little man not just 2!


There was also a great magic show that was part of the circus act! These guys were amazing, and probably my favorite part of the show!
The lady started out in this silver smock dress, and her dress changed atleast 10 times! She would go behind the guys sheet for 1 second and come out in a different dress!! It was crazy!!

We made our way back to the room, and got ready for bed! Aiden had to test the beds out for us before we could go to sleep!
David and I shared a bed with Aiden, which is an adventure in and of itself! David and Aiden slept like babies....I did not! I had feet in my stomach, hands in my face, and by 6:00 am, I was falling out of bed! Needless to say....I didn't mind the we had another 4 hours to drive because I took a nice nap!
