Spontaneous=Vegas

On Friday Gene's Mema called and said that they
were going to be stopping in Vegas and wanted
to know if we wanted to join them. We NEVER
do anything spontaneous so we decided to go!
We found rooms for cheap for Saturday night, which
is lucky for a weekend!! And we took off when
I got off work on Saturday!!
We decided to go to the Shark Reef Aquarium at
Mandalay Bay. It was soo neat! They have
this projection on the wall and when you walk in front
of it, it ripples like you are touching it! It is so cool.
So Camrynn had alot of fun with it, and that was
before we even got into the aquarium!
Here's Gene and Camrynn in front of the tank
with fishes. I think most of the fish swam away
before I could get them in the picture!!
And we all got to touch the sting rays! That
was a pretty cool experience! Camrynn wasn't too
sure at first, but after she saw Gene do it she wanted
to try:) Camrynn says "I got to touch the leaves!"
haha. There's no proof that I touched them,
but I promise I really did!
The next day we went to the lion habitat at the
MGM Grand. I have seen this several times before,
but this is the first time I got to see them being fed.
They throw a chunk of meat against the glass and
the lion licks it off. Kinda slobbery, but everybody
gets to see him up close and get good pictures!!

We went to Circus Circus and played at the arcade

and watched the circus shows too, but I don't have any pictures!

Just alot of stuffed animals to show for it that Camrynn won:)

It was fun to get away and visit with family!!

So I asked Cole what he would have done if I hadn't gone out to help the "homeless" man. He said he would have eventually left. Haha! I guess it's a good thing I went out there. I might not be married! Hope you guys are doing good!
