Day One Hundred Fifty-Three- VEGAS DAY 1

Can I just start off by saying I just LOVE the Vance family??? I'm SOOO blessed to have such great cousins and a way cool aunt and uncle.

Today we had the opportunity to go see Jared at his school play for Thanksgiving. He was the cutest little Indian I've ever seen. The short play was out side and it was FREEZING outside. Poor little kids. Anyway, Jared rocked his part and did so well.

After the play Doug and I decided we would drive down to the strip to walk around some of the hotels. I love the way the Bellajio decorates for fall and Christmas (I've seen both). These pictures are the decorations for fall.



Okay so Doug and I aren't the wild type of people, but today we took a little walk on the wild side and gambled just a few dollars in a slot machine while at the Bellajio. Doug did most of it and good thing because.....WE WON 5 DOLLARS!!!! We were super excited and HAD to take a picture of our winning ticket thingy they give us. After we won, we felt so stupid because we had no idea what to do with it. We walked around like amateurs (which we are proud to be). Finally we found an ATM like machine where you stick the ticket and out comes your winnings! We could definitely tell how people could get addicted to gambling. Winning is so much fun. Luckily we had good self control and stopped while we were ahead.




That evening we just hung out with the family. We had a yummy dinner by Linda and then we played pictionary. Weird thing is Doug and I have never actually played the game of pictionary, like with the board and everything. I was on a team with the best player there...Colton(he is my 8 year old cousin and my best buddy).
