Easter 2014

It's quite the bunch when we all gather together at Grandma's.  Hope these days never come to an end.

She Did It!

This cute girl has wanted her hair as long as Rapunzel's for...  Well, probably since she first watch Tangled.  Her long hair was beautiful, but if I'm being honest, I was more than ready for her to have it gone.  It was just such a pain, she was always bawling when I brushed it or curled it or did anything with it.  I've tried to convince her to cut it, but she just wouldn't give.  So what convinced her to finally cut it?  The fact that her hair will now be worn by a sick child in the form of a wig.  Donating her hair to Locks of Love was all it took for this girl.  She was proud of a peach to hand over her 12 plus inches.  Isn't she darling? 

What Happened in Vegas... (Day 7 & 8)

Our girls love the temple, often time when we are on vacation we like to walk around the Temple Grounds.  They love it, they really do.  For Las Vegas being such a scummy place the Temple holds no exception to it's standards.  It really was beautiful.  And remember me saying I wasn't a huge fan of the desert?  We found the funnest location when we went out for dinner.  I'm sad I didn't get pictures, of course it was developed desert, but it was beautiful and the atmosphere was so fun.  I loved it! 

And as for day 8, well it was hardly a vacation.  Just a long drive home to beautiful Cache Valley.

What Happened in Vegas... (Day 6)

One thing we loved about our stay at Grandview Las Vegas was the pools.  There were so many of them.  We were excited to see that we had the whole upper deck to ourselves.  We spent the day swimming then went to Hoover Dam and walked across the bridge.  It's not hard to get used to the sunshine, it snowed at home while we were away.

What Happened in Vegas... (Day 5)

We spent the day experiencing Vegas life... kid style of course.  We went to Circus Circus, watched some of the circus acts, ate lunch at the Rainforest Café, went to watch the mermaids swim at the Silverton, but they weren't swimming that day.  If you knew how much these girls loved mermaids you would understand that it was truly and honor just to have their pictures taken with them.  We also did some shopping... like a little bit of shopping... like we had two rambunctious little girls with us kind of shopping.
