What happens in Vegas...

This week I was able to go to Vegas and spend some time with Bree and her family.  Her parents were awesome hosts, and made me feel like part of the family the whole time I was there.  We stayed at Ballys, but walked the entire strip on Wednesday.  I drove up Tuesday afternoon, and had to leave on Thursday to get home.  Bree and Nicki were leaving too though, so mom and dad lost three of their kids that day!!  We had a blast, and I would love to go back and do it again!!



Dinner the first night at Margaritaville

A little beer pong on the way to the comedy show!!


Mom and Dad!


 
Enjoying our time together!!


Having fun!!


We were a little hungry around 2 am.  :D

Happiest Place on Earth

Our first vacation was to the happiest place on Earth!!

In front of the castle!

They knew we were there to have a good time!

It was a lot of fun, and a blast to be back.  We even bought season passes again!  I was super excited about that, because that means we HAVE to go back.  No way did we get our money out of it this time.  I think that we might be traveling back through in July, so I'm excited for our next trip already!!  We were able to see the new parade, which isn't much of a parade, but more of like the block party from California.  It was still a lot of fun because our good friend Stitch was right in front of us the whole time!!


While we were there we finally got to go on Toy Story together.  I went when I went in October, but Tyler hadn't gone yet.  I thought that since he hadn't gone I would be able to dominate.  Man was I wrong.  We went Thursday and Friday, and Tyler beat me both times!!  The first day he got the high score of the hour too, but I didn't grab a picture of that.
Our scores.  I'm sure you can figure out who was who.

Tyler's best score in the car!

While we were in Orange County we were able to meet up with some friends too!!  We had dinner with Kelly one night, drinks with Jim and Nina, dinner with Jessica and Adam, and lunch with Jon and Nicole.  I also got a special girls night out with Nicole.  We had a blast, and love seeing our friends that we don't get to see that often any more!

Dinner at Buca with their tentacles!

Yummy drinks with Jim and Nina!!  We realized after we only took pictures of the drinks!

To end the trip we went camping with my youth group for the night.  It was a lot of fun, and beautiful to be on the beach again!

Piol Wedding

Tyler and I were able to travel up to Sonoma for Breeann and Kevin's wedding the weekend before school got out.  It was a lot of fun, and we had a blast.  We were even able to eat at our two favorite places at my mom's house before we drove up for the wedding.


Friday I met up with the girls for us to get our nails done, and then we all headed over to the country club for rehearsal.  After rehearsal we went on a nice little adventure to find dinner.  It was super yummy, and a lot of fun!



Saturday was the big day.  We woke up early to start with our hair, and keeping Beautiful company all day.


Before Beautiful got dressed



The wedding was amazing, and so beautiful!!  I'm so happy for them, but we miss them tons.  I even called my mom and told her we were going to move home because I miss them.  :D  No worries though, we're not going any where.  Hopefully on vacation to visit this summer, but we're not leaving Phoenix any time soon.


Two of my favorite people

Our family

Had to bring it back from 2007 :D

We love them, and wish them nothing but happiness!

Summer Vacation

Tyler and I are so excited to be on summer vacation!  We ended the school year right before Memorial Day, and have just been relaxing ever since.  Our friend Christie left yesterday to move to Detroit, so we had a going away party for her on Saturday night.  That was a lot of fun, but we didn't take any pictures.


Last week we headed up to Sedona to hang out with Jeremy and Rachel for the day.  That was a blast!  We made plans to hopefully go up again some time soon.  It was nice to escape the heat for a day!
