Shae, Rhaegan and I got to go to Las Vegas this past week with our friends Mike and Ashly and their two kids Maddox and Conner. Ashly's family lives their so we stayed with them and got to enjoy their company. Thursday night we went down to the "strip" which was a first for Shae. We wanted to eat at the "ESPN Zone" but when we got there we realized that there was a huge game on so the wait was 5 pages long and you had to pay a $10 an hour fee once you got in. Needless to say we of course found some place else to eat. It actually turned out for the best because we took the kids to the Rainforest Cafe (in the MGM Grand) which was so much fun for them. It was like eating in an actual rainforest. Everywhere you looked there were animals or waterfalls and every 15 minutes or so it would thunder and a little mock rain storm would pass over us. It was a really fun experience. We also got to participate in the annual Las Vegas Santa Run which benefits children with disabilities. Ashly and I wanted to run the 5k but since we had our husbands and kids with us we decided to do the "Santa Stroll" which was a 1 mile walk. They wanted to make it into the Guiness Book of World Records for the most "Santas"walking a 1 mile or running a 5k race. We all had to dress up like Santa (including the kids). It was a riot. Rhaegan actually wore her beard as you can see from the picture below. It was a great trip filled with a lot of fun.

I love the Santa Rheagan! I loved seeing E and Rheagan play together next time we are in town we have to get together. Thanks for helping out with my kids while I got stuff done as well...especially our little one. Take Care!
E had this cold in her eyes and I heard that Rheagan had it as well. But, she is dong better. What are your plans for Rheagans birthday? We actually took E to the M&M factory yesterday for her birthday and she liked it...mostly the PINK M&Ms. Give Rheagan a birthday hug from all of us!
