Vegas Vacation

-Spring Break 2008 in pictures-
I was in desperate need of some desert heat, so we headed south. We brought along Doug and Glenda to supervise. First, we had to drop off Alta at my parent's (thanks guys). After that it was on to St. George.

Colby and Doug got in some climbing at Snow Canyon. Above is a look at the route they climbed.

And this is them about half way up. Check out Colby's blog for more of their climbing photos.

Colby managed to shoot a whole bunch of photos.

Next stop: Sin City. We stayed at the Wyndham Grand Desert. It was nice.

The pool was pretty.

We went out on the town.

We ate at the Elephant Bar

where we met up with the Grensings. It was fun to see them & the food was yummy.

After being so gluttonous we decided to head to the temple.

It was gorgeous.

the sinners:)

another favorite.

then we thought we better make a stop at.....

We got to spend lots of quality time together in the car.

We met up with Breck and Brie for a little more food at the Rio.

Then we watched the Parade in the Sky.

Colby tried to strike it rich.

But just got frustrated.

Other undocumented activities include: eating great Thai food w/ Andy and Nicole in St. George, laying out, shopping, and overall relaxation (while Colby and Doug worked) .
We had lots of fun. It was close to 80 degrees! Now we are back in Logan, and it's snowing. Bring on Spring!

Sinners with supervisors... my advice for your next trip down there is to try the airport slot machines. They pay out. However, the whole time you're at the airport, you feel like you're at the carnival. Colby, that climb looked so awesome. I don't think I've ever done a climb that long. How do your arms hold out? Large, you look (Paris Hilton) "so hot!"
