Vegas Baby!

We are a little ashamed to say this, but we went to Las Vegas for our first family vacation! It was a spur of the moment idea to go someplace warmer than here and where there wouldn't be a lot of spring breakers. Out of all of us, we think Evelyn had the most fun! She did very well on the plane ride and in true Evelyn style, never met a stranger while on vacation. We stayed at the MGM Grand Hotel, where they have a lion exhibit. We ventured down to it and to our surprise, the lions pounced on top of us (the exhibit allows you to walk under the lions--totally cool)! The family also stopped at the M&M factory and Coca-Cola factory in Vegas. Evelyn loved seeing all the lights of the city at night, but we think her favorite part of the vacation was the hotel bed (it was a king size with a pillow top matress and fluffy covers). She would just roll around and play in the covers and giggle away! Despite all the fun, we were glad to come home; until we actually got home. Unfortunately, our sump pump was kicked off and water came into the basement. We called a professional out to clean up the mess--kind of a bummer to such a great vacation.
