We left Vegas with a skip and a jump in our steps. We are super lucky to work for cool clients like the Chili Peppers and to have family and friends to both hook us up and especially to enjoy it with. Amazing adventures. We stopped at the Hoover Dam on our way to Phoenix. Jeff and I remember our family trips through the Hoover Dam. It was incredible that we all drove through the dam directly. Now there is another freeway that goes around it. There is also ...

What an amazing day and night!!! It wasn't what we had planned, but usually the best days aren't exactly that. We started out by checking out the Bellagio, and taking a tour of their gardens. We didn't really want to drive any place because the strip really shuts down to all traffic, and we didn't think we could get back into our hotel garage. So from there, we decided to take a taxi over to Circus Circus, where the kids and I planned on hitting up the amus...

None of the stars of the show were there,...

Vegas!!!!! The kids are amazed by all of the hotels and Vegas as a whole. I don't think it was quite what they expected, although they really didn't know what to expect. Our hotel room is AMAZING! We found this place by chance. We wanted to get a room at The Cosmopolitan, as we are out here for Jeff to go to the Chili Peppers show, but the place was super high-priced. We could go to Cancun for a week with our whole family, including flights for that price. ...
