Vegas Fun - First trip for Josh

We are back from Las Vegas!  What a trip.  We've been going to Vegas each year for the past few years and having little Josh with us this year didn't stop us from going.  It was his first flight so we were expecting the worst but it all turned out ok.  He didn't fuss much during the flight and was well behaved even with his cold and stuffy nose.  Josh liked the plane so much that he imitates a plane when doing tummy time:

Because we had a minor with us, it was harder to find time to gamble. In fact, when we tried to get a pic of Josh with us by the slot machines, we were chased away by one of the reps on the floor.  Not a bad thing really.  We came out losers this trip...  We did alot of shopping and eating.  The buffet at our hotel (Palms Casino) was a great place to eat.  On the Tuesday night, we accidentally bumped into Seafood night at the buffet and it was fabulous.  It was $16.99/person with players card and included beer/wine and all the alaskan crab legs you could eat.  I lost track how many plates I went through.  Josh really likes the beer...haha.

On every trip, we try to visit a park or check out one of the sites so this year, we went to Red Rock Canyon which is a national conservation park, about 30 minutes from Vegas.  We spent an afternoon out there and managed to see the sunset while driving back into town.  The sky was bright pink and orange.   There is a spikey tree called the Joshua tree so we had to get a pic of it.  

Given how well this trip went, I would definitely take Josh on another trip later this year if the price is right.
