Well the kids and I ventured with my parents for a "beautiful" 7 hour drive to Las Vegas last weekend! The drive was long but we made it safe and sound to and from our destinations. The kids were very good and tolerant while we drove but were happy to be out of the car at times too! My parents are great for catering to the kids and they were a really big help too! Thanks mom and dad! I appreciate all you do for my little family!! The reason for the trip was that my parents wanted to attend a wedding of some kids that are in my dad's ward that was at the Las Vegas Temple; and of course to visit with Cody and Jen. So I tagged along with the kids! We also brought Jen back with us and she stayed for a couple of days and left on Wednesday!

Here is Megan in the car. She was a trooper! But once we took her out of the car seat she did not want to get back in!
Megan has what I call a RashStache! Can you see it?

This was Wyatt any time we were in the car! He was able to watch Space Buddies at least 10 times on the trip. I had other movies but he only wanted that one. Thank goodness for the earphones, because I don't think I could have tolerated listening to that movie more than once!

the DVD player in the car made the trip very enjoyable for Wyatt....thereby making it easy and enjoyable for the rest of us! Once again I that the technology Gods for making my life easier!!!

We took a trip to the Hoover Dam on Friday. I haven't been there since I was very little. It was pretty cool to see! It was nice to be out and enjoy the beautiful Las Vegas weather too!!!

This is a great picture of my parents! Thanks for smiling dad! You guys look great!

Me and the kids at Hoover Dam!

If you look behind us you can see the new bridge that they are building to go over the dam. That was so amazing to see in progress. I guess it is being built to avoid people and traffic from being on the dam itself....it's a terrorist percaution! Those terrorist sure cost us a lot of money!

Dad and Cody getting ready to drive the racecars at the Mini Grand Prix in Vegas

Me and Wyatt on the big slide! He went down that thing at least 15 times! It was pretty fun!!!

Meg and Wy Guy posing in one of the cool and very fast cars that Grandpa and Cody got to drive! These cars get up to 45 mph!

GRRRRRR!!!! Watch out for Speed Wyatt! He is fast!!!

They even had cars for kids Wyatt's age and younger! He was able to drive it and steer it by himself! My dad and I were a little doubtful that he could handle it on his own, but he did really good! There is some video of it below!

Here is Wyatt at his very first time behind the wheel! He did so good! I was very surprised that he was willing to do it without me! He was so brave! When you watch it notice that he doesn't crack even the littlest smile....he was taking this whole experience very seriously!

We were cracking up the whole time he was driving....especially my dad! I'm surprised my dad was even able to stay on his feet he was laughing so hard! I especially love Wyatt's hilarious yet very serious wave at the end!

When we asked him if he wanted to drive again he said very calmly "No. I wanna go on the slide."

Well, we had a good time in Vegas! It was nice to vist with Jen and Cody. My brother Geoff also drove down so we got to visit with him too!
