Vegas in Pictures!!

I took over 1,000 pictures on our trip so I have tried my best to just pick out the highlights. There are still a lot though. If you want to see more the links are in the previous post.

We had visitors come and go while we were there. Miranda was there for two days at the beginning, Eric for three. Then Adam came for about 24 hours towards the end of the week. Jess, Eliot, Jenna, Matt, Rick, and I were there the whole week.

After dinner the first night we went to the strip and watched the water show at the Bellagio. This is my version of the Oceans 11 picture of the everyone watching the fountains.

The beginning group! Back Row: Eric, Rick, Jenna, and Matt
Front Row: Miranda, Eliot, and Jess

Hoover Damn

To cross this bouy line and get closer to the Hoover Damn is a breach of national security.

Rick's attempt at water skiing!

This is Matt falling off the water skis. I am only showing this picture because I feel like it is the best action shot I took on the trip! Matt is actually a very good skier.

My turn waving hello!

Rick drove while Adam was skiing!

Rick and I shared a banana split for dessert on our last night. It was very good, but melted quickly!
