Spring break 2021

Since our spring break trip to bear lake was cancelled at the last min. last year we decided we had to make it up to them this year. So we planned a trip to Las Vegas! 

After our Easter celebration the house was a DISASTER so my friend in that ward agreed to have the kids over to her house to have a play date so i could get some cleaning done in silence. The time flew and i didn't get much done but the kids happily played out side while I finished and started some laundry. On Tuesday we finished laundry and packed up. Wed. morning we finished packing and loading the NEW VAN for our trip.

We bought a new van! Our old one was still in great condition but with so many road trips planned this year and the kids getting older we wanted something that was a little newer and with less miles. We found a GREAT deal on this Chrysler Pacifica! It has Hale damage on the hood so we got it for like $6,000 less then if it didn't have damage everything else in perfect condition! it only was 64k miles on it. our old one had 134k miles on it.

We thought this was craxy the freeway in Vegas had different speed limits for each lane!

When we got to the hotel our room wasn't ready so after a trip to the grocery store we hopped in the pool to kill some time and get out some of the kids bottled up energy from the long drive.

After swimming we showered and changed and met up with my cousin Jake and his family.

Erilyn immediately claimed their baby Cheznie.

We rented a movie from the front and the kids watched my little pony and relaxed in the hotel room for a bit before going to bed.

In the morning Jake went to the time share meeting and the kids wanted to play on the play ground at the hotel but it was still closed so we played in the game room instead.

And enjoyed the sun on the balcony before heading out to the strip.

Again Erilyn clamed the baby and pushed her all through las vegas.

Enslie decided that the Hershey kiss needed a mask!

We looked thru Hershey's world,

m &m world,

And coke world.

We decided to try the coke around the world thing and forgot how nasty it is!!

then just as it was getting dark we headed to see that water show! The water shot higher then i remember!!

The next morning we headed to the stratosphere to ride rides. But not before  sun screening up!!

The girls bought these stuffed animals as their souvenirs for the trip, and Korbyn got a bus.

Relaxing before  heading out on daddys back.

Of course the rides were closed for the day due to wind but we still had fun eating lunch at the top of the world and and enjoying the views.

After a failed attempt at riding the pig apple coaster the kids were done and just wanted to go back to the hotel and swim but we did stop for our first ever picture with Vegas sign before swimming.

Korbyn attempting to do sunscreen himself.

After swimming we changed and headed to cream berry for some fun ice cream!

The next morning we packed up and headed home ( notice Korbyns bus below him on the cart)

It was such a fun trip with lots of memories and fun bonding with and getting to know my cousin better.

We all thought the tiny bike on the back of this car was so cute!!
