After the first haircut, we took Haylee to “Red Robin” for lunch – she got a red balloon – so she was excited about that – she loves balloons!

After lunch – Cameron took Haylee home for a nap and I met up with Aunt Judy, Amie and Jordan for a matinee – we saw “Four Christmases,” it was a very cute movie – but very short!

19 more days and Cameron, Haylee and I will be in an airplane on our way to Vermont!  We will be gone from December 18th til January 6th!  We are all very excited!  Not too many plans – just hanging out with family and absorbing every minute with them.  I’ll definitely have to hit up ASIA, my favorite Chinese Restaurant!  On Christmas we’ll be waking up at my parents house, we will spend the first half of the day there with my family.  I think my mom is making a turkey (YUM) – then for the second half of the day we’re going to the Norths for more food, presents and probably some games.   Can it be the 18th already

I hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving.  We went over to Aunt Judy’s – she made a delicious dinner and then we all played games – 31 & Apples to Apples!  It was hilarious .. Haylee made a funny we will have to tell you all about later – lets just say she has us all laughing so hard we were practically crying.

Well, I guess I’ll conclude this randomness .. for everyone back in Vermont – see you soon!  Love and Miss you all very much.

We just recently made another trip to Vegas.  It was our third time in as many years.  We love going to Vegas.  The reason we went this time was because my parents were there celebrating their 34th Anniversary.  We decided to go down for a long weekend and enjoy some time with them.

We had a good time while we were there.  We mostly walked around and did more site-seeing.  We cannot get enough of the casino’s.  There is always something to see there.  The place is amazing.  We went into a couple of casinos that we had never been in before and browsed what was there.

One of the days, Jess, my father, and I all woke up and got ready to go to Sahara and play some blackjack.  Jess had never played before, so she just stood behind us and watched us for probably 20 minutes.  After a lot of begging from me, Jess finally sat down and played.  We played for about another 2 hours and then we needed to leave to go to a show we had tickets for.  I could barely pull Jess away from the table.  She loved it SO much!  Now all the talk at our house is buzzing over to Wendover some evening to play a little 21.  (Wendover is a small town about 1.5 hours from our home just over the Nevada line.  There is basically nothing in the town except for a few hotel/casino’s.  It’s a very popular place for people from Salt Lake to go since it’s so close, and apparently the slots are fairly loose.)

After playing 21, we went over to Harrah’s and went to a comedian/magician.  He was really good and quite funny.  We then had a good dinner at Rio’s casino at the World Carnival Buffet.  It has literally every type of food and tons of it.  I mostly filled up on Crab legs, shrimp, and a little bit of sushi.

All in all, Jess, Haylee and I had another great time in Vegas and we can’t wait to go again.  It was also fun for Haylee to see grammie and grampa.  She also loved all the lights.
