vegas pictures.

here are a few pictures from our last trip to vegas...shel's camera is still mia

just getting to the strip...it was HOT

M&M world...we all know i love the green one.

Our hotel...construction was out in front...we stayed at Planet Hollywood. The pool at PH. Lots of room to lay out which was great.

getting a tan...as you can tell it is much needed.

(yes mom, i did have sunscreen on. funny how things change when you are a cancer nurse.)

Vin Vin
RK in shel's heart glasses...don't worry, he is just borrowing them for the purposes of this photo.

the bellagio.

The trip was a blast...too bad we don't have more pictures.

slacking in the blogging world.

my sister brought to my attention yesterday that i have not updated my blog in quite some time. i've been pretty busy with work, but mostly life has been pretty uneventful. i started a second job at the hospital. i work with the hospitalists doctors prn. i basically round with them and make sure that everything is organized and prepared for discharge when the patient is ready to go home. it's a nice change of pace from working the floor. i'll probably work that job maybe 3 or 4 times a month on average.

so the past couple of weeks have been pretty low key. the week before the 4th mom, dad, and sophie came to visit. sophie and i had a sleepover which we both loved. apparently she is still talking about it. i also bought a brand new tv...i'm excited to be a home owner someday. it's fun to buy things and enjoy them. who knew, right? the weekend of the 4th i worked. being on the 7th floor at the hospital is great because provo has a hot-air balloon festival in the mornings so i got to see it both mornings up close and personal. after work on the fourth i went up to draper to a bbq at paige's sisters, and then we watched the fireworks in sandy. the night was fun but i was tired and ready for bed by 1030.

the week after the fourth i worked quite a bit, but managed to find time to have some fun too. tuesday i went to a boys like girls concert up in slc with tristyn and her sisters and cousins....we definitely enjoyed ourselves. i ended up having to work the next day so i was pretty tired. i finally signed up for the daybreak triathlon so i am now locked into doing it. i've been training pretty consistently and already am seeing results so i'm way happy about that...maybe i'll get back into my swimming days shape...wouldn't that be glorious? i think so.

this past weekend i spend with shel bell and her family up in slc. we had lots of fun playing with her neices and nephews at lagoon. we decided that might have to be our trip for the month since i'm going to st louis here in a few weeks to see jamie and robert. we might go back next week with our bounce back passes...we can get in for $9.

heading to lagoon.
anyway. today i am making a ton of cupcakes. we are having a "bachelorette" party for the tv show tonight with a few friends. i'm so glad she finally kicked wes off last week. he deserved it and i hope his career falls to shambles.

oh well. hopefully i'll have some fun stories to keep everyone updated with soon.
