Vegas Baby!!!

Ok, well this title is deceiving.  We did fly into Vegas, but we actually visited my sister and her family and they live in a suburb of Vegas.  We took our first family vacation last week and I'm sure it will come as no surprise to you that Brady is pretty much a superstar in everything he does.  He traveled like a true champ!  He slept the whole way out there and just played and jabbered the whole plane ride back home.  We felt like people gave us the look like "oh great, a baby on our plane."  However, it was nice when so many people told us what a good traveler he was!!  There were a group of about eight 25 year old guys behind us and as we landed in Vegas, they were surprised that a baby was in front of them because they didn't even hear him.  I told them yes, and we are having a very different kind of Vegas trip then they are.  :) 

My little nephew Maxwell is absolutely precious and perfect.  It was so great to finally be able to meet him!  And Melissa and Gerry spoiled us.  We had a great time with them!!  We do different things every time we go out there, and this time was no exception.  "Just trust me", as Melissa would say!  We stayed at Melissa's place a few nights and Green Valley Ranch a few nights.  It's gorgeous there!

Chris was able to golf a few times at these courses:

We were able to go visit the Pawn Stars shop, had a girls night out (Jennifer demonstrated her versatile move for us and we hit up happy hour at my favorite place - The Blue Martini www.bluemartinilounge.com/index.html) and checked out a new casino (The Cosmopolitan?).  They have a three level bar inside a chandelier.  Amazing.  Anyways, here are some pictures with more to come!  As you can see, Brady loved swimming!
