Spring Break...Nevada Style

Spring Break requires sunshine!  We found some in Mesquite, Nevada!  We had a relaxing three days of swimming, laying in the sun, and playing with friends and family.  



All the girls and  moms had their toenails done.  It was a fun girl's day out!  Thanks Colette for making the arrangements.



I love some good pool action shots!  Here we have Alex, Kevin, and Kort....


Madison and Keyera mostly giggled together....



Lane and Kort....


and Griff....



We also had some good basket tosses out of the water.  This is Alex's launch...



And this is my favorite action shot!  Zane and Andy just launched Maddie into the air.  I love her face and body movement!  Swimming never disappoints.  The kids swam for hours each day.

We decided to take a little road trip down to Las Vegas.  We conquered the Strip and Fremont  Street with all these kids!  It was fun.  We had to do a little explaining about some of the sights we saw, but I don't think any permanent damage was done.  :)  We stopped in M & M World for a photo.


Of coarse the Harley Davidson Motorcycle....



It was fun to give the kids a taste of Vegas.  It really is an amazing place.  These were the cutest Show Girls we saw.....


Here we are waiting for the water show at the Bellagio....



New York, New York...



Met Woody and Buzz. ...




By the time we got to Fremont Street everyone was pretty tired.  But we watched the light show, bought some souvenirs, and called it a night.

We then headed back to our quiet rooms in Mesquite.


This last one is of Griffin watching a 3D movie.  We went to Journey 2.  The kids loved the 3D action!

It was great to get away.  Spring Break gave us just what we need to get through the rest of the school year.
