Quick Trip to Vegas

Every so often Papa gets to make some skydives just outside of Las Vegas,

so we like to take advantage of these quick trips and see something new.

This time we hit up the Aquarium at Mandalay Bay.

A bit pricey, but then most things in Vegas are.

I was really excited, if you can't tell.

How would I look as a fish in an aquarium.

This aquarium was pretty cool. Lots of different animals to see,

but our favorite part was the large aquarium at the end that looked like you were inside a shipwreck.

This was one of our favorite creatures, check out that nose.

JB loved watching the animals swim beneath him.

"This is so cool!"

We would definitely check it out again.

We also checked out the Pawn Stars store.

It didn't quite live up to the hype of the show,

but it was still fun to see.

Just make sure you go early on a week day, to avoid the crazy crowds.

Overall, a pretty fun trip!

Rose Parade 2013

While we haven't yet spent the night on the sidewalks of Pasadena to view the Rose Parade in person, we do watch it on TV.

And the next day we get to get up close and personal with the floats.

And have a little picnic on the grass,

If you are ever around the LA area January 2nd & 3rd, check out this amazing floral artwork.

Mom had to work that day,

but us boys had a great time!
