Vasquez Rocks

Jacob had an adventure this week and went to Vasquez Rocks with a friend.  These are the same friends that we went to Mount Pinos with.  Clearly they like outside adventure which I think is great and Dad remembers his camera and takes great pictures!

The last time we went to Vasquez Rocks was 2009, at least that is what my blog tells me.  Thank goodness for blogs or I wouldn't remember this stuff.  Happy New Year.

Merry Christmas from Las Vegas

Happy Holidays.  This was our first trip to sin city during the Christmas holiday season.  I made it my mission to take as many photos as possible in front of Christmas decorations.  Whenever possible I asked someone to take a picture of Michael and I.

The Rio Hotel.

Gingerbread Wynn and Encore Towers.  Crafted from 3,500 gingerbread titles, rolled fondant and sugar.  The confection weighs over 295 pounds and took 21 days to construct.

In front of the buffet at the Wynn Hotel where most of the sin took place, overeating.

I think this was the Palazzo Hotel.

Our big night out included tickets to Penn and Teller at the Rio Hotel.  It was a great show and these two are uber nice.  Penn is 6 feet 7 inches.

Merry Christmas from Las Vegas!
