Vacation to Cali & Vegas


We just got back from a trip to California for a Wedding and Las Vegas just for fun! It was a blast and great to get away for awhile! We first went to Luke and Lisa Spence's wedding which was a very beautiful wedding! Congratulations! Thank you for inviting us, we had a wonderful time.

While we were in California we went to the Monterey Aquarium. That we super neat. We saw otters, little sharks, tuna, jellyfish, and many more under the water creatures. They were really neat and we got quite a few good pictures, but I will only post the really cool ones to give you an idea how awesome it was.














It was also really good to see our friends Adam and Anna from Portland. They have a 15-month old son, Lukas and a baby on the way! It was good to catch up and hang out with them. We miss seeing them on a regular basis, but I guess that we will have to make plans to see them in Portland. Darn another trip :)! Do you sense the sarcasm?

After California, it was off to Las Vegas. We always enjoy everything that there is to see in Vegas. The food was wonderful, the shows were great and the company was very enjoyable. Jeremy and I were on our own this time in Vegas. In the past when we went to Vegas we were with a couple of our friends, Jon and Jenny, but they weren't able to come this time. Although it wasn't the same without Jon and Jenny, we were able to have a blast together! We saw a few of the new Casinos including the Wynn hotel which was magnificent, but I felt a little out of place there. It was very high class. We also saw the new Hard Rock Casino, that was really awesome as well. The shows we saw were really good. Here are a couple pictures with some impersonaters from one of the shows.


The left impersonater with Jeremy is of course supposed to be Elvis! The impersonaters with me on the right is supposed to be Cristina Agulara and Britney Spears. It was fun to see them perform. This show was at the Stratosphere which we were able to go to the very top (level 109) and see the entire strip. It was awesome!

It was pretty hot in Vegas, but it didn't take away from the vacation at all!

Well, I hope I didn't miss out on too much here in Colorado. Hope this finds all of you doing well!

My cousin, Dani Snyder, is now Dani Bassett. She got married up a poudre canyon chapel on May 20th. My best friend, Jennifer Glover, is pregnant with their second child! CONGRATULATIONS!! My cousin, Wendy Sedey, graduated from Nursing school! CONGRATULATIONS!! Also, Wendy and her husband, John, are expecting their first child in July! My cousin, Emily Peterson, graduated from CSU in Human Development and Family Studies! CONGRATULATIONS!! I am so proud and excited for all of you!

There has been so many people's support and love that I appreciate. I want to take this time to point our one of the best friends that a woman could ask for. Jennifer Glover has been there for me since we were in Jr. High and has not ever let distance stop us from being great friends and confidants. She is without a doubt one of the most compassionate and loving women that I know. I want to thank her for being a shoulder to cry on, a friend to laugh with and also someone I can just shoot the breeze with! I just love that I can talk about anything with her. She is truly a gift from God to all that are in her life. Thanks Jenn!! I love you!

I wish everyone well in there summer plans and there endevors that they embark on the rest of this year.
