Hey Baby Let's Go To Vegas!!

Chris and I just got back from a little trip to Vegas over New Years. We have some friends, Nate and Cara that got married on New Years Day, in Vegas. So we left of the 30th and came home on the 2nd. We had such a great time. Another couple, who are good friends with Nate and Cara, that had come for the wedding decided to get married in Vegas too. Since they got married before any of us got there, we re-enacted the scene and took pictures for them. Chris thinks he may have a career in performing weddings! :) Thanks so much Nate and Cara for inviting us to be part of your special day. We had a BLAST!!!



The Grand Canyon from our plane. So we were told! ;)

The Paris hotel at night! We went to the top and the view was fabulous!

F.A.O Schwartz in Caesar's Palace. Three levels of toys! :)

Nate took our picture outside the Venetian. He cut off most of the hotel! :)

Gondola Rides at the Venetian!

A better picture of the Venetian!

Chris LOVED running up all the steps and acting like Rocky at the top!
Our favorite little hang out! The ghetto of Vegas, Slot-A-Fun! Cheap Blackjack! :) Well for Me, but not for Chris! :)

Cara's sister Leigh Ann and their friend Landon on New Years Eve!
On the edge of 250,000 people on the Vegas Strip. They closed the street to cars so people could fill it to watch all the fireworks at midnight. We walked down to the edge of the madness in front of New York, New York just to say we were there! :)

Even at the end of the strip, it was packed!!
The MGM Grand was counting down till 2009. Hard to see on the jumbo-tron!New York, New York in the day time!

Nate texting Cara that we might be late to their wedding since we had been standing there for 20 minutes with no cab insight, all while he was holding all our stuff so Chris and I could take pictures! What a man!
