The Bradys Take Las Vegas

Last weekend Mark and I spent less than 48 hours in Las Vegas. I think we slept for less than 9 of them! We met my immediate family for a quick family weekend. We had an amazing time. Even though the timing with our move seems a little crazy, it was so great for us to get away from the boxes, the planning, the work, and the stress of everything.

We didn't end up taking tons of pictures because you're not really supposed to take pictures on the gaming floor and it's annoying to carry a camera around. Well those are our excuses anyways!

We all stayed in the Bellagio hotel and wowie what a treat that was! This was the view from our "lakeview" room:



On Saturday day night we all went to see "O" by Cirque du Soleil. Before the show, we had a family dinner at Le Cirque. We all dressed up and I even got to wear my wedding jewelry. The food was amazing, the company was wonderful, and the show was breathtaking. I could do a whole post just on the show, but do yourself a favor and go see it yourself! Here are my parents at dinner, and yes that's a coconut my dad has for dessert:


After dinner Mark and I made everyone put up with some family pictures. Turns out it's hard to herd around people after the event! We should have done pictures before dinner, but c'est la vie! Here's the shot we got. I wish I was standing closer, but ohwell.

On our last day there my Uncle Terry and Aunt Kathie flew out to join us and we got to spend a little time with them. It was so great to spend the weekend with my family. I have to say it makes moving away even that much harder, but I know we'll have more trips like this someday. For now, I'm just savoring the great weekend we had and looking forward to visiting this summer!
