Vegas, Baby!

We had a GREAT time in Vegas and Lake Mead last weekend. It was our first real vacation with the baby, and to say I was stressed and worried about it is an understatement. As usual though, I had nothing to worry about. Spencer did great on the plane (take offs activate some sort of "sleep mode" in him) and had a great time in the sunshine! Of the hundreds of times I have been to Vegas (well, maybe not 100, but I've been there a lot) I have never stopped at the sign, so we made that our first family activity.

Our days were mostly spent on the boat. I'd never been to Lake Mead and all I can say is, WOW. No wonder dad ventures down there for half the winter! Spencer had a great time by Grampa's side.

What was really nice about having dad and Laurie down there was that Chris and I could go play at night! I didn't bring my camera, which is just as well since the new saying down there is: What happens in Vegas, winds up on YouTube. We did have an AMAZING dinner at Tom Colicchio's restaurant Craft If you don't know who that is, then you obviously aren't a Top Chef fan. That's okay, we still love you!

All good things must come to an end though, and after four days it was time to come home. Here is Spencer looking longing out the window, like, really? We're gonna leave this nice weather?!
