Vegas, Baby!

 Before we left, we had to take advantage of the short drive to Vegas! We took a day trip to check out what Vegas had in store for us.

We were able to meet up with Adam's great Uncle and Aunt and had a wonderful visit with them.

We walked down the strip and explored the casinos. We actually ran into quite a few Brazilians and I was able to speak Portuguese with them!

We especially enjoyed sneaking up the elevator in the Luxor (the pyramid casino) and walking down the hallway....NOT!!! We were 10 floors up and the view into the casino lobby made our knees shake. Have you ever felt that wooziness that comes when you see how high up you really are?! We most certainly did. So, we dared each other to walk to the other end of the hallway, but neither made it because we got too swervy and dizzy halfway through. Haha!

At the end of a long, fun, noisy, crowded day, we finally were able to see a Cirque de Soleil show- KA. It was amazing! If you ever have the opportunity to go to one of their shows, do it! They are so neat!
I had to sneak a picture with part of the set behind me because it was so cool looking!
(I thought our phones would take better quality photos... bummer)

And some funny faces from Adam are always included.

Overall, we had a wonderful time! 

Our Latest Adventures! (A quick catch-up!)

We have been so busy lately!

 So, I thought I would quickly write about what we've been up to in the past few weeks.

 Hmm, where do we start?

Well, one morning Adam woke up and wanted to buy a chameleon. According to the petco lady, chameleons are difficult to care for and are high maintenance, so we went with something simpler. Chinese Water Dragons! We eventually got two and they have been keeping us quite entertained.

 Their names are Ruprict (from the movie "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels") and Bucko (because he kept getting into trouble and we called him that anyway!) They've been fun!



We had fun times with Grandma and Grandpa...

And at a cool Vintage Furniture store...

We enjoyed the scenic view from the Riverwalk Grill Restaurant where we worked...

 


And beautiful sunsets while driving.










We made some funny videos...

We had some fun times working...                  And getting our hair done...

Saying goodbye is hard to do, but we appreciate all the friendships we made and the wonderful things we have learned from them.

We finished work, online school and visited with family in town. We went four wheeling and climbed all over St. George's red rocks.

 And then we headed to Reno to watch my cousins for 10 days while their parents travel to Italy! More adventures to come.. stay tuned!
