Vegas and heading home

W got up, got dressed, packed up and checked out of our room to work our way home, but before heading home I wanted eat at the Wynn for their brunch. To be perfectly honest I was a little disappointed and would choose the Bellagio buffet over the Wynn.

After breakfast we headed to the Wynn's atrium. 

After walking through we headed back to the car to make our trek home. We had such a fun time, can't wait to do it again.

Vegas, Day 3

Consisted off about the same as day 2. We ate breakfast, got Into our swim gear and headed to the pool for some water time.

Later in the afternoon some friends who live in Vegas came and swam with us. After swimming for a little while we headed up to the room to get ready and head out to dinner. My sister in law Brooke came down to Vegas with a girlfriend and came to this place and since Jeremy LOVES BBQ I figured why not, so Thanks Brooke for the idea.

My favorite was the drinks came in mason jars.

After along filled day it was time to say goodbye and back to the timeshare we went.

Vegas, Day 2

Started with a little continental breakfast. Cereal, bagels, yogurt and fruit...Ok and maybe some Doritos.

After filling our bellies we got our swimsuits on along with some sunscreen and headed down to make a splash.

Jack and Abi made a little friend, which they swam with most of the day.

Of coarse Abi had to be buried in the sand.

Then she escaped.

Lounging by the pool. After our long day of swimming we headed back up to the room to get ready for my birthday. Jeremy and I watch a show called "Flipping Vegas" and after one of the shows they went to this place for dinner so we figured we would try it.

Even though they didn't have kid coloring books they had something better, pizza dough. Jack and Abi played with their pizza dough the whole time.

After a delicious dinner we headed to the Bellagio, but the kids had to pose first.

The one thing I love about going to Vegas is going to the Bellagio and seeing what design they have created in the atrium. This time it was all about flowers and butterflies.

After the Bellagio we headed over to the Paris. I have always wanted to go up the Eiffel Tower. 

After we got our tickets and waited in line for the ride up the tower, Abigail had a complete meltdown as she thought the Eiffel Tower was the Tower of Terror. After finally calming her down it as our turn to head up and she was still very hesitant. After we reached the top, she thought it was so cool and was completely fine.

Jack, however was a little afraid to sit on the enclosed edge.

After the ride we were tired and ready for bed to back to the room we headed.

Vegas Day 1

Heading out of town is always a lot of work. I had most of everything packed and ready to go. We picked Up Jack from preschool, finalized the checklist around the house and started the road trip to Vegas.

We arrived in the early evening due to many little stops. However when we finally made it we were tired and ready for bed.

Breakfast & Downtown Disney

On our last and final day. We woke up and headed to the pool for one last hurrah! We then got ready packed our gear, loaded the car, checked out and headed to breakfast at Mimi's Cafe.

 

Abi had Mac and Cheese - Surprise (she only had that entree the whole time on vacation. Jennifer and I got a delicious omelet. While Jack and Jeremy shared Strawberry waffles and Pumpkin Pancakes.

 

After our full and hefty breakfast we headed towards Disneyland to look for a place to park that wasn't so far. We came upon the Downtown Disney parking which for the first 3 hours is free and it was right next to Downtown Disney. Perfect! We parked our car and headed to find some souvenirs for our trip. The kids really wanted to see the Lego Store so we browsed.

 

The kids found the Hulk and of course we HAD to get their picture. Jennifer and I left Jeremy with the kids and headed to "The World of Disney" store where we found our treasures. Jennifer found an old time Mickey t-shirt and I got a hoodie jacket. Along with our treasures and even though the kids already picked their treasure out I figured I would get them one more thing so....

 

I picked out a little bracelet for Abi and Jack a new Mickey hat. We then headed to the car, on the way to the airport filled it with gas, found the return rental and checked in for our flight home.

 

Can't wait to do this trip again! Until Next Time.

 

 

 

 

Santa Monica Pier

Our last full day in California consisted of us heading up north a little to Santa Monica Pier where a visitor was waiting....

 

My Dad!

 

 

It was so nice and relaxing. The weather was perfect. The beach was nice to tease my feet and the waves even tried to play tag. They got us a few times where we were sitting.

 

 

It was a really nice end to a great vacation.
