Road Trip.

A much needed trip out of our snowy, cold state!  We didn't quite make it as far as we had originally intended (California) but instead made a stop in Southern Utah to visit my sister Becka and her family for a day, and then on to Las Vegas for a short stay.

The girls didn't quite know what to make of Vegas.  Presley met Elvis and Captain Jack, but the highlight of the trip for the girls was a trip to M&M World to see the 3-D movie and get their very own bag of over-priced, but color specific M&M's.  Presley picked plain, Stella likes peanut butter, and my current favorites are the pretzel.

Posing with one of the life-size M&M's.

Watching the water show at the Bellagio.

Stella trying out water-wings for the first time.

Presley enjoying the waterfalls at the pool--the water is her favorite place to be.

Chinese New Year gardens at Bellagio.  Year of the Rabbit.

We stayed at the MGM and took several walks up and down the strip.  It was a bit colder than I had hoped but at least the sun was out!  I think we did all the "kid" things you can do in Las Vegas--swimming, Serendipity 3, water shows and gardens at Bellagio, the aquarium at Mandalay Bay.

Unfortunately out trip home ended on a bad note.  Presley ate a whole bad of Twizzlers in about 20 minutes--and about 20 minutes later threw them all up.  YUCK!
