Utah Trip Part 5

Tuesday December 30th:

So we woke up this morning with the intent to drive north to Idaho and venture up to Rexburg to visit Adam's grandparents.....BUT....due to the weather (two different storms: 1 near Rexburg and 1 at the border of Utah & Idaho) we decided to not go. Plus, Adam's grandma Relda said not to come, she was afraid we'd get stuck somewhere on the way or stuck at their place.

So anyways, change of plans, we decided to pack it up and head home early to enjoy the rest of the week at home with the girls. I grabbed my camera and took some pics of my mom with 5 of her 6 grandkids, and then 1 with just my 3.
and then by request of their Aunt April...a pic of the girls in their new outfits in the snow.

April got the girls matching tops but different colored bottoms and asked that I take a pic of them in the snow on our trip. Love it!!!



We then left and headed to Shriner's Hospital where my sister works so we could all say good-bye. Laura then told Meg that the high school where High School Musical was filmed was down the street, so we had to stop by for Meg....

Meg @ East Salt Lake High.

Go Wildcats!!!



Back in the RV, then we headed to Vegas. Peyton enjoyed the trip. She got to sit by mommy and watch movies in the bedroom with her sisters.


Once we got to Vegas, we parked at the RV park and then got some dinner.

We munched on fruit, pizza, burgers and french fries.

then we walked over to Freemont Street and watched the light show.

the show at Freemont Street was cool, the girls really enjoyed it. Peyton was just starring at the ceiling in awe.
Meg spotted the lamp from the old Aladdin hotel, ya know...Jasmine's hubby!

The next morning, Dec. 31st. New Years Eve, we headed over to Excalibur Hotel because we promised the girls we would eat breakfast at the 'castle'.
The food was terrible, and the prices sucked. We will NEVER do that again. But the girls had a great time.

The girls inside the castle, and out front.
Vegas was getting crazy as we left as they were preparing for the activities that night. Roads were already being roped off, and tons of port-a-potties were lining the streets. Anyway, we got home in the afternoon, unpacked, played with Christmas toys and gifts and then welcomed the new year!
