Now that our little Bug is one year old, we thought a little trip to Las Vegas was in order. Alex has now been to Vegas three times! We flew Southwest this time, which is better than the five hour drive. We spent time with Shannon's best friend Stefanie and her family, celebrated my mother-in-law's 60th birthday, and I found time for some new body art.
Alex and Shannon during lunch last Friday at
Steiner's Pub.
My gorgeous girl and I at her mom's surprise birthday dinner at
Il Fornaio in Henderson, Green Valley Ranch. We had the private dining room.
How I spent my Saturday afternoon. Pricz in Vegas do good work. I am so proud of my latest tattoo, which was inspired by some recent sketching.
Shannon's nephew Zack sure took a liking to his little cousin. They bonded for hours Saturday night.
Shannon's 7 year old niece Brooke gave me a tour of their house. Here I am with her favorite doll.
I had Monday off for President's Day, but we decided to let Alex go to daycare. Here he is about to have a snack.
Back at home, the multi-tasking Alex is having dinner, and applying his war paint, in preparation for battle.
