Venetian St. Marks Square
Lake MeadMy summer break came and went in a flash! Adam and I decided to end our summer vacation in style with a trip to Las Vegas. We had a great time taking in the sites and sounds of the city. We also had some lovely meals, nice pool time, and fantastic company.
Adam's new associate, James, and his wife, Jessica, joined us on the trip. We both have young children (their daughter Alyssa is 10 months old) that we were leaving as a family for the first time. In typical fashion, only the Mommy's shed tears!
We took in three shows during our visit. We saw Cirque de Soliel's "O", Jerry Seinfeld, and Penn and Teller. While the shows were fun, the highlight of the trip was our Jet Ski adventure around Lake Mead. We rented a car, made our way down to the lake, and jet skied right up to the Hoover Dam. It was AWESOME!
The one thing we didn't do? Gamble! That's right...Adam and I were there for four days together and we didn't gamble a penny. Casinos aren't my thing. I don't go for smoky rooms and bright lights with non-stop sound. SENSORY OVERLOAD. Adam stayed a few extra days after my departure (Jess and I flew back without the boys) for a dental conference and managed to play few hands.
Zach had a great time with his G-Ma while we were gone. He went to the park, took rides in his Mutsy, and played and played. With the exception of one afternoon nap, he slept well and was on his best behavior. She enjoyed bonding with him, and I know he did too! Babies are a LOT of work, and we are so grateful that she volunteered to watch him while we took a little couple's time together.
