Megan, Alex and I went on Wednesday night. We got cheaper tickets to go on Wednesday night instead of Thursday and it worked out great. It gave us a day to get everything ready for everyone else to arrive.
We spent Thursday at the outlet mall and the grocery store. Bonnie had done most of the shopping for us before we ever got there but we still needed a few last minute items. 
We checked into the condo on Thursday evening which gave us just enough time to decorate and put our food away before the Keyes family and Mike arrived on Thursday night. 
Stefanie, Jeff and the kids arrived around 9:30 pm Thursday night and we picked Mike up at the airport at 10:30 pm.
We walked all around the strip on Friday during the day. This is the Venetian.
Jeff was really excited to get to spend so much quality time with everyone and he was really excited to get his picture taken with Mike. :)
We are headed out on another adventure. We just roamed around the strip all day long!!!!!
A cool waterfall across the street from the fashion mall.

We headed down to Freemont Street in the evening. We had lots to do on our agenda for the night.

Stefanie, Megan and Alex did the zip line the goes all the way down the street. This is Stefanie coming in for the finish.
They all survived.!!!!!

Saturday morning we went back to the strip to go on the roller coaster at the New York, New York and do some more walking down the strip. 
Downstairs at the New York. The roller coaster was so much fun.

We met up with my Uncle Curt's sister, Chris also. She happened to be in town with a friend so we got to spend some time with her. She had driven from Yuma so it was great to get to see her. 
Peggy, Tami, Gimi, Me and Stefanie. We are missing Kari. Unfortunately she wasn't able to make it. Hopefully next time they can come also. 
Me and Stefanie at the new Cosmopolitan Hotel. It was really nice.

Gimi, Megan, Stefanie, Haley and Tami waiting outside for our next plan of action. 
This is everyone that was with us on Saturday. It was such a fun day. I love it when we have no idea what is going on. We just make plans as the day goes on and hope it all works out. It was so much fun to constantly change what we were doing. We always ended up somewhere fun. 
Megan and Alex on one of the many sky bridges that we crossed a million times. 
Saturday night we took the kids back to the condo and we all went out. Stefanie, Jeff, Tami, Gimi, Haley and Scott all went to the show "O" and Mike and I went gambling. It was alot of fun and we met back up as soon as the show was over. 
Stefanie really wanted a picture in front of the sign. It was packed everytime we drove by but we finally stopped and got her picture. 
We had a little birthday party at my Dad and Bonnie's house on Sunday morning for Stefanie. We had cake, ice cream and presents and then all went out for brunch. Mike had to head home in the evening so we had all of our party fun early in the day.
Stefanie and Jeff.
We got there early enough to get some more nice decorations up. I think she was loving the streamers everywhere that we went. :)
Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!
Jeff bought her some much needed older person supplies. She was laughing about them but Tami and I both pointed out that she might actually need those before long. I love Bengay and Tami really drinks those ensure drinks. 
We sang for the cake three times because Haley's birthday was last week and Rena's is this week so we had one cake and three birthday. 
Rena is going to be 8, Haley just turned 18 and we all know Stefanie hit 40. 
We went back downtown on Sunday night to watch some more shows and see what all we had missed the night before. Gimi, Haley, Tami, Peggy and Megan all ready for something. 
Megan and Scott are only 4 days apart in age so it is always fun to get updated pictures of them together. 
Stefanie and Megan in the Caesar's Palace mall.
Outside of Starbucks on our way to the Treasure Island show. 
Gimi and Peggy.
Getting ready to go to the Miracle Mile across from the Bellagio and we are all laughing at how my Dad got stuck with all of these girls. 
After Peggy and Tami left for the airport on Monday morning we went to eat lunch and open some presents for Rena's birthday before everyone else had to hit the road. 
Paul, Scott, Gimi and Haley. They are missing Taylor and Ryan but they are both off at College and couldn't make the trip. 
Dad, Bonnie, Stefanie, Jeff, Rena, Maleah and Cameron.Megan, Alex and I headed home on Tuesday morning and the fun was over.
We had a great weekend and can't wait to get together with everyone and do it again. Hopefully Stefanie had as much fun as the rest of us did.
Happy 40th Birthday Stef!!!!!
