Good Old Family Bonding

WARNING: This post has a kazillion pictures. I want them all for my family book. :)

All I wanted for Spring Break this year was my family all to myself.....time away from work, school, activities, and friends. I didn't care where we went as long as we were ALL together. We ended up in Vegas and even though the weather wasn't as warm as we hoped, we had the BEST time and it was exactly what I needed.



















































































Highlights:
* Movies & treats in the Car

* Painting nails & doing hair in the room

*Jayne's Miraculous curing of her earache

* Jason picking up Emilee and "helping" her into the pool

* Emilee rationing out the suntan oil and not letting anyone put on their own.

* Lunch around the pool.

* Running into Kesley and Julie

*Lucy doing my makeup.

* Jayne INSISTING on pushing the elevator buttons every time, heaven forbid you might forget.

* Riding the millions of escalators with her.

* Cookies and milk in the room at night.

* Jason getting the mac daddy room.

* Lucy being the cleaning fairy every morning.

* Seeing Mirror Mirror and the 3 Stooges

* The fun park at Town Center. Jason and Emilee (the twins)eating cookies while the kids played.

* My lucky slot machine and lucky # 9. (I was feeling the vibe so I stuck in $1, and won $125 with the first pull and then headed straight to the cashier:)

* Stopping for Jayne's bathroom breaks every 2 minutes. We know where every bathroom is in Las Vegas.

* Max being protected by his 4 sisters as we walked down the strip. "Max don't look up, or to the left, close your eyes right now"... etc

* Abbie saying "This place is just like a slap in the face to Jesus after all he did for us."

* The kids riding the roller coaster at New York New York while I played the arcade games with Lucy and Jayne.

*Panda Express in the room and watching the Help.

* The Belagio hookup to the honeymoon suite at their buffet.

*Jason bringing us donuts for breakfast.

* Max making a hoop for the room to get his Jimmer drills in.

*Jayne saying "I Love Vegas! over and over.

*Max finally making it to the Nike outlet.

*Listening to the kids penny wishes

*Abbie wanting to give all of her money to the beggars.

* Lucy wanting to go back to our room because the smoke "hurt" her tummy.

*Swim races, wrestling wars, doing back flips, running to the hot tub every 2 seconds...

* Being all together!!!!!

Looks like one heck of a spring break! Your camera is Awesome.. Such crisp clean pic. You may need just a spring break book! I love reading the highlights. From rationing out the suntan lotion to the bathroom breaks. I love this miller family. So glad you were able to get away to party! Before we know it it's going to be summer break! Xo
