Vacation 2008

Our family had an opportunity to go and vist places in the southwest region. We feel truly blessed to see God's wonderful creation and we will never forget the experiences and lessons gained throughout the trip. To sum up everything , we flew to Las Vegas and then the following day went to Hoover Dam/ Lake Mead, then to Grand Canyon, Lake Powell, drove to Zion National Park,visited Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park on the way, then hit Bryce National Park the last. It was awesome!!!!. We planned it really well and we must say the turn out was rather successful. After Bryce we stayed for the night in St. George and then drove back to Vegas to see the strip, which is not what I expected. I would not recommend going to Vegas at all. But yeah, overall, we enjoyed our grand family vacation. And I got a special treat....Jollibee , Chowking and Red Ribbon all in the same building. I cant ask for more!!!STerling also got great gifts from his job such as full body massage at Golden Nugget (120) which by the way according to Sterling , I massage him better than them, Sansa Fuze MP3 player and brand new camera and pocket money for food ( which we will give to Dianne who is serving a mission in Hawaii) Jollibee/Chowking/ Red Ribbon Las Vegas Strip/ Golden Nugget Aha !! Got yah!! At the Venetian Hotel This is the hotel where we stayed for our first night in Las Vegas Too bad we didnt get to go swim here..its really a nice pool. It has a slide that will go through the whole aquarium. Really prettY!Its in the Golden Nugget hotel which is along the famous Fremont Street where you can see the biggest LCD show.
LAKE MEAD and HOOVER DAM
Grand Canyon ( South and East Rim)
BRYCE NATIONAL PARK Oh my....Im still uploading pics our vacation which happened like a month ago or so.... anyway better late than neverI guess. Anyway, Bryce is awesome!!! I think we enjoyrd it better than the restof the other places we visited.. Its a different kind of beauty. We get to hike some though it was frigid cold. We were not prepared for it as you you can see in some of the pictures ...like Sterling, who in desperation, wore Hunter's hat and shirt for a little bit of covering for his head, after he gave his coat to his wife. Awwww sweet!!! ZION NATIONAL PARK
