Vacation: Last Two Days

On Saturday we left Az. and headed back to Las Vegas. We passed through Hoover Dam and got a photo--Shawn cried because we had to drive by the Visitor's Center and couldn't go inside. We also passed through a little town in AZ called "Wikieup"--the self-proclaimed "Rattlesnake Capital of the World". You can see the photo op below!


Once we got to Las Vegas we headed to the Excalibur for the "Tournament of the Kings" dinner show. They charged $20 for a family photo, but since I didn't hear the part about putting your camera away, I got some good shots! It was a great show--I would recommend it to anyone! We ate with our hands and watched "real" jousting, etc. Lots of special effects, too!

On Sunday we said goodbye to the Coopers (if the camera could record sound you would hear their baby crying like crazy!).
We had some time to kill before our flight so we climbed to the top of a hill by the Coopers' home. A pretty good workout with a baby strapped to you! It overlooks the valley and you can see the strip in the background.We got home safe and sound and ready to take on the week! It was a wonderful vacation full of memories for all of us! Hopefully we'll be able to visit the desert again! For now, though, I really love seeing all the leaves change as Winter approaches.
