On The Road Again

Tyler in Childress at the Park
My new SUV

A long day at the casinos!

One of the many cool hotels in Vegas

Aaron and I took vacation this past week. We could not decide what we wanted to do. Our child hates to sleep so we knew any real vacation was out of the question. Aaron's job just keeps getting better and better. Because he travels he has many free flights and hotel stays. So we wanted to a least get out of Dallas for a bit. So we went to the extreme. We bought a used Nissan Armada in Las Vegas and decided to drive it back and make a vacation out of it. We went back and forth trying to decide if we should go or not. Tyler hates the car and he was really sick the week before. We finally decided to make it happen. We stayed in Vegas the first night. It was really cool to see the buildings and the amazing hotels. We almosted got mugged though so we decided to take off to Flagstaff, Arizona. Aaron was so excited about going to Arizona and it ended up being really smelly and really boring. Don't try to take an 8 month old to the Grand Caynon. At that point we were focused on getting home. We had fun though. We enjoyed driving and playing stupid games like, "If you were going to be eaten by a shark, tiger, or bear, which one would it be?" You can learn a lot about someone with these types of random questions. We played games with Tyler, had picnics, and laughed a lot. So all and all our long road trip was a good vacation. But I have to say there is no place like home.
