Viva Las Vegas!

Vegas was such a ball! We had so much fun! Our flight left at 6:35 in the a.m. which made us all tired. But we got there and my aunt's brother took us to breakfast at The Original Pancake House. Delicious! It was a lot of fun to meet him and eat delicious food. We then went to the hotel, dropped off all of our stuff and hit the road. We spent quite a lot of time in the Bellagio an dhten went to the M&M store. I met my man Elvis there! Actaully, i met my man Elvis on almost every street corner. But this was the only one I wanted a picture with. He's such a hunk. Then we went to the Coca Cola store. There were these guys with a ton of different flavors of coke and I really wanted to try it. It was called "Tastes From around the World." Umm, most of it was disgusting and didn't taste like real Coke products. I am glad I live in America where our sodas don't taste like crap.
In front of Serendipity's

We ate at the buffet at Treasure Island. It was oodalally delicious. On the weekends tehy have prime rib, shrimp, and crab. The only crab I remember ever having was canned or something like that, which sounds absolutely disgusting right now. Anyway, I just had to try it. It's such a pain to shell. But so good.
They have a wax museum at theVenetian. So I stopped to get a picture with the Rock. He is so dreamy.. He looks so much smaller in real life... But I was still intimidated as you can see I couldn't get too close to him.

Then we got pictures in front of the Phantom ad. We were just so excited!! And this picture is great because my mom has her eyes open. Sometimes, I think Rachel and Emma get that trait from her...

Then came Phantom. It was phenomenal! I was so amazed the entire time. It was definitely worth going down to see.

After the show, we actually saw Elder Holland! He was just so nice. My aunt Mel saw him and told me to get his attention. So I grabbed his arm and said hello. He turned and said "What is this? The Relief Society?" And then went on about how fantastic the show was as he shook all of our hands. It was a great way to end the show!
We all wanted to see the fountains at the Bellagio afterwards, but Grammy and preggo Alana were just too beat so they went back to the hotel. So mom, Mel, Taylor and I went out and saw them. So gorgeous!

My battery was dying thw whole trip so she has all the pictures with all of us in them. It was a fantastic trip and we had a ball! I can't wait to do something like this again soon!
