Las Vegas for Easter

We go to Vegas each Easter to do a "sunrise service" with Tyler's side of the family. We wake up before the sun rises and go the mountains and one family is assigned to give a spiritual message. Then we have scones - then go home and go back to sleep :) The first night we got there (Friday night) we went to the Cheesecake Factory to eat dinner then went to see Beatles Love by Cirque du Solei at the Mirage. It was very interesting and creative!



We weren't supposed to take pictures of the opening set or anything, but I snuck some without my flash. Then a gaurd told me he would confiscate my camera so I put it away ha ha...

After the show waiting for our car

Gambling for a few minutes before the show started - Carol won $140!
Katelin with her Columbus hat
Each of us tried on a different color!
Uh oh...I think Tyler is addicted
On Saturday we went to the Zobrist Easter party and had an egg hunt for the kids and ate pizza. That night while the guys were at the priesthood session, the girls went to the Bellagio to see the flower display. It was really pretty and smelled so good. When the boys got out, we went to Chili's for dinner. It was a fun weekend!

Michael Buble concert = AMAZING!



We went to Texas Roadhouse with Drew and Rachel beforehand then went to our seats at the E Center in the first row East side!! Wow - his voice was unreal. We had such a great time!

If you know me, you know I loooove my birthday week! Yes, that's right, birthday week. I celebrate all week long!For my birthday present, Tyler surprised me with ski lessons at Park City! I had soooooo much fun, I am seriously addicted to skiing now. I went the week after with my mom, sister, Marc, and Courtney! We had a BBQ at our house after which was really fun! My dad met up with us at home. I went down a BLUE slope the first day with Ty and fell a lot but after my second lesson I was flying down those green and blue slopes! I had a blast!!We went to Texas Road House for my birthday dinner with the Parcells! Earlier that day my mom took Tyler and I out to lunch at Zupas and it was delish :)I got my nails done!Opened lots of presents! I got some great gifts from everyone! Money from Grannybird and my grandparents, clothes, Vans, jewelry and a blanket from Walt and Carol and my sisters-in-law, a cute dress, Nordstrom gift card, tights and Lacoste perfume from my parents, dinner at Happy Sumo with my mom and sister Jocelyn from Jocelyn, a cute decorative "Enjoy!" sign from Courtney, and yummy candied popcorn from the office!
