Vegas.....sun, fun and volleyball

I must say that it is so nice to get out of town once in a while. We traveled to Las Vegas to see our boys play in a big volleyball tournament. It was fantastic. It was 80 degrees, we had a great hotel (thanks to the help of my friend Jamie), family, volleyball and beautiful Las Vegas. Marissa took a friend, Emily, and she had never walked the strip. It was fun, exciting and she saw alot that she had probably not ever seen before and probably some that she wished that she had never seen. She loved the Bellogio with all of its beauty. We ate good food, walked alot, giggled alot, swam, ate more good food, and did I mention that we watched alot of volleyball??? It was great to see our boys cheer for each others victories and encourage each other in mistakes. The Utah State team moved up in the ranks and that will be good for them in Nationals in about 3 weeks in Texas....wish I could be at that one.....wow!!! All in all it was an amazing family weekend. It is always fun to get out of town but my favorite is walking back into our home and feeling peace and comfort immediately.
