Vegas (3 0f 3)

So the real reason we went to Las Vegas this past weekend was ofr James' cousin Ted's wedding party (got all that? lol). Ted and Noel were married in Captiva, FL in June and we were unable to make it, so we made sure to go to the Vegas party in return. Noel did it all herself! She was so crafy and saved so much $$!
She made limoncello! Bought these super cute glass bottles and the yellow with the pink was perfect!


Outside the tables had blue table cloths and these awesome center pieces she made!! I am so stealing this idea! She bought waterproof lights and put them under some blue rocks and cut the flower right at the base; at night, these had such a beautiful glow!


She printed all the signs and cut them, so cute!


Emma finally wore a summer dress I have been waiting for to fit! She was so stinking cute! Aunt Susan and Uncle Ed (Teds parents) got emma this really cool flashlight toy! She carried it all night.




It got to be a tad loud inside, so Nicholas and Emma played in the garage, knocking on the door, chasing each other and escaping through the side door. Im so glad they played well :). Emma meeting Aunt Linda; it was such a treat meeting her! (Uncle Peter is in a wheel chair, so its hard for them to travel, im so glad they were able to come!)


Blurry and small, however, this picture is amazing! (taken by Nate, James cousin) James Mom has 5 sisters and 1 brother and all but 1 sister was able to make it!! Robert, Linda, Jeannie, Susan, Betty-Lou, and Millie (missing Bobby-Jo)


It was wonderful seeing so many family members and Emma being able to meet them all was such a treat!

Vegas (1 of 3)

We had a quick and eventful weekend! We headed out to Las Vegas to visit a ton of James' family. Tons of Aunts and Uncles came from back east and it was wonderful to finally meet them all!!

Emma not excited for a 5 hour car ride

Finally pulling in to Vegas, we made great time!!

Emma loved to chase the Kitty, which she called a puppy the whole weekend.
Not even 10 minutes of being there, she was so excited about the kitty, she tripped and face planted on the floor getting her first bloody nose and bruised face. After 15 min of crying and clean-up, she was good to go and back to chasing that kitty.

Found new hiding spot in Grandmas house


Playing with James and Nicks toys from when they were kids!! His mom kept EVERYTHING! :)



She wouldnt go down for a nap, so Grandpa gave it a shot and he did it! Yay Grandpa!!

Emma felt the need to relive her baby days lol, playing in the bouncer.

There she goes again to get the kitty!



We did even make it a 1/2 mile down the road before she was out on the way home!

Back home we go!


Thankfully my hubby has a good idea now and then. We purchased this car adapter to plug the computer charger in to, it cost about $30 and was worth every penny. We brought her Bubble Guppies DVD..of course and she watched it the whole way to vegas and back! She was a great road tripper!! If we didnt have that adapter, the trip I presume would have been a bit rockier.
We did take 7 hours to get home because of an accident, Emma had a blowout when we got home, but we were not stopping!! It would have been worse to get her back in her seat after a minute of freedom.
So glad to be back home in our own beds :)
