My Dam-n Las Vegas Photo Dump

So, after we left our newest and favoritest place on earth, Wyoming , we took the kiddos to the glitz and gluttony that is Las Vegas. 

We had a plan. IT was not all about the glitz and gluttony....ok, it was a little about the glitz. It was really about the SHOWS. 

We love the shows. And not the 'peep' kind you pervs.

Waiting on the valet...

If you would like to stay at a SMOKE free and CASINO free hotel...then check out the MGM Grand Signature.

It was a great hotel....and the 'smoke free' part was fabulous.....except for the one night that our neighbors must have been really suffering with their glaucoma. Medicinal is legal, right.

These palm trees look suspiciously like the ones at home.

The lobby at The Bellagio.  If you ever get to Vegas, you must go see this art piece by Dale Chihuly in the lobby; GOrGeOuS. And of course...seeing the dancing fountains is breathtaking as well. 

The dancing fountains at The Bellagio.

Lolo and the leaning tower of Eiffel.

A short clip of the fountain show...the neighbors to my left were trying their hardest to knock my camera into the lake. They don't know who they are dealing with! Tourists really get on my last nerve....

Do you recognize these kids? Me neither. This was inside the Bellagio again...at the conservatory. GORGEOUSNESS!

Sunflowers. In the Las Vegas desert? 

why yes....

If sunflowers...then of course hot air balloons!!!

 BAM! DAM. 

The Hoover Dam to be exact. We drove over for a little look-see. 

I just love the history of this structure...and the fact that this one government project in the history of projects was done EARLY and UNDER BUDGET. HELLO? That is unheard of...

The original terrazzo floors.

I remember terrazzo floors...growing up in Florida four of my rich friends lots of people had these marble floors in their homes. 

The girls enjoyed this little tour. 

You know what I think they enjoyed the most? 
I gave them a damn pass. 

Yep. A damn pass. During the entire tour, they could say DamN as many times as they liked. That was the free part. Dammmmmmmmnnnnnn.

Dam!

And looking down here...this is where I started to feel damn woozy. I no likey being this high. 

We are such good parents...we took the girls to M & M world. The Coach let them each fill a bag of candy....

There was so much candy in this place...three floors of it. I saw people left and right going into diabetic comas. NOT pretty. 


You have to know, that MY children, being MY children were most fascinated with all the interesting people..as in: The scantily clad ladies. And I use the term ladies loosely...
I wish I had written down how many times I heard this whispered: "I think that one over there is a prostitute."

I have some more photos to share....but it seems this dump is getting long!

I will share some more later...and also I will let you all know how I won millions dollars while gambling! Surely you are waiting with baited breath.

{who has bait on their breath anyway? Damn!}

Happy Monday!!!
