Elevator Pictures

One day I'm going to get this great feat down. What a great way to get a family picture ;o). Terriebeth and/or Tabitha started this years ago and I finally join in the last few years...but alas mine don't turn out that great! My first attempt this year...you can see all but me and I forgot to turn off the flash!

Here is one of my great ideas...we are not in the elevator but there is mirrors...so lets give it a try...I got everyone in this one but TJ
Now I got everyone but you can barly see Caleb....They are so goofy!! Look how Terriebeth is picking on her mom!!!
The little ones were game for one more try!!! They loved it!!!

Now this would have been good....but I forgot to turn off the flash;o) Who is surprised???

Here is Hollie taking pictures too....but I miss Tatem on my shot!! Sorry Tatem

Well I think she is behind The Third you can see her just a little bit.

My second attempt but the doors started to open and everyone moved to get out!! Mean people! Ok it was just Tim, John and Ethan!!!

Great times in Vegas!!! I wonder if security is watching and betting money on it I get the shot or not! Ha,ha,ha!

M & M World!!!

Ok I had to come back on here and say this is my favorite set of pictures so far...in order for you to get the full effect you will need to double click on the pictures and blow them up...I'm sure they will crack you up!!!

Here is Ethan and Caleb at M&M World with the M & M race car!! Once more...I thought it was cute how Caleb had his arm around Ethan....but way high up around his shoulders... Cute kids
It was so cute I couldn't resist one more picture..

Ethan, TJ Hollie and Caleb...who was more interested in the Green M&M behind him!!! TJ seeing what Caleb was doing....

Ok we almost got them this time...but who knows what Caleb is looking at now ;o) At least he is turned in the right direction!!!

Outside we saw Blue one day and he picked up Ethan and Caleb!!! How funny!!!

Blue and the boys!

We went to the 3D "I Lost My M in Vegas" show...along the way you had to go through this fun little part. Here is Tim and Hollie looking at something...and Caleb found something else that interested him ;o) You can see TJ, Terriebeth and Tatem in the back ground looking at the same thing the others are.

This picture cracks me up...TJ looks like he is saying WOW!!!! And Ethan is looking up at the ceiling...and Hollie and Caleb are looking at whatever TJ thought was so cool....my guess is he was just yawing!

Yes the Spratts are with us....Just behind and never in good picture view...but here they are with grandpa...not looking like they are having to much fun!!!

Make sure you double click on the tunnel ones!!! Ha,ha,ha!!

Now I was worried about going thorough this tunnel...getting motion sick and all...that was nothing compared to standing on the other side to get pictures of everyone!!! Crazy!!

Here is Hollie and Caleb...TJ and Ethan...None of the kids liked it very much!!

Grandpa a little dizzy!!!

Terriebeth and Tatem...Tatem wanting out now....grandpa's arm because he is still spinning...

John and The Third....look at that grip on Daddy's arm!!! Fun Times and I'm glad this is the last of them because I was way to dizzy to do more ;o)

Grumpy grandpa and Tatem....

Ethan and Caleb....

The four musketeer's ;o)

Wow look at this ....you won't see this very often all four of them looking at the camera!! And smiling!!! Yahoo!!! They are "A Few of Our Favorite Things" for sure.

The Third...isn't he cute???

Waiting for the movie...Tatem and Grandpa playing rock, paper, scissors

Ethan taking the room in, and TJ just sitting ;o)

A day of Adventure...and I mean Adventure part 3

Ok this is the last of our big adventure...John and Tatem were the leader on this one...John the first part and Tatem the second. In the above picture The Third is waiting while John scouts out the way to go..

Not this way....

Yeah lets go this way...see the blue backpack in the middle on the left?

Here let me get a better shot of this path...you won't believe it!!!

Ok lets go.....

Half way down...see it isn't so bad....and you were scared!!! Ha,ha,ha!

Look at The Third out in front! No problem!!

Terriebeth helping Tatem over a little tricky area for a 4 year old...but not to bad.

A view from the bottom...funny how hard it looks and it really wasn't that bad!!

On Tatems Adventure we found these cute little caves...and Grandpa had the great idea of climbing in for a picture!!!In this one The Third is on his back...not sure if you can see him or not.

Same with this one...only it wasn't close up!

Tatem thought it was a great idea so she took a turn!!

Her close up....

Then The Thrid tried it by himself!!!

His close up!!!

Then Grandma was begged into doing it!!! I was waiting for the owner to come out and scare me out!!!

Give the thumbs up if your having fun!!!! Just hurry up and take the picture!!

Notice in the close up the thumbs are so up and the look on the face!!! But hey I did it!!!

Ok Tab and Hollie this is the only really scary part on the adventure...it was when I was texting you Tab...anyway it was straight down...only way out unless we wanted to go back the way we came....but since we are troopers we figured out a way to get down without any one dying!!! Yahoo!!! Just kidding it wasn't that bad but was the I would say the trickiest part of the whole day.

At the end of the Adventure...no one looks worse for wear and they are trying to find the trail with the waterfall or big horn sheep!!! But alas we ran out of time and had to get back to town to meet TJ, Hollie, Ethan and Caleb for Linner at the RIO!!

Can't wait for you all to come hiking with us next year...or should we say rock climbing!!!
