Las Vegas

For the Labor Day weekend, we headed over to Las Vegas.  The kids and I left Saturday morning and we stayed until Monday morning.  Jeremy had been in Daytona Beach, FL, during the week.  He drove over to Sarasota and spent the night with my parents, to pick up a few things he'd left with them while we were overseas, and flew out of Tampa to Las Vegas, to join us.

On Saturday, we started on the strip at The Bellagio:

The Eiffel Tower Experience:

Shopping and sight-seeing at Bass Pro Shop:

We had dinner across the street from our hotel at Panera Bread.

On Sunday, we enjoyed time at the Las Vegas LDS Temple grounds:

We enjoyed the "High Roller" (just slightly taller than the Singapore Flyer):

We had lunch at the "Cracker Barrel", went and visited The Venetian hotel and shops (where Madison made good friends with the Godiva chocolatier!), swam in the hotel pool, and had "Pieology" and "Jamba Juice" for dinner:

 We had "pinbox" donuts on the way up to Hoover Dam Monday morning:
