Kissing James' head

I really don't know how it started...


First Hank...


Then Letisha...

Hey James! New shampoo? LOL

Paris

Today was one of those everyone do your own thing days.
From what I understand some people went shopping (again!), others went to see shows, some gambled...
I went to Henderson to visit my Aunt Mila. She is definitely one of my favorite aunts. She isn't a blood relative, she is my mom's best friend, but for as long as I can remember she was always Auntie Mila. She took me out for some sushi back towards the strip. I would have liked to have had a longer visit, but it was still an awesome visit.

Later that evening, the group decided to try the buffet at the Paris Hotel. The drive there was slow. Even though it was a Thursday, the strip was at a crawl's pace.




Some people are already gearing up for the New Year's Eve party. I wonder what these beads are for? hmmmmm...

So close...

Finally!

Lori and Breanna (who refuses to take a normal picture).
I really need to take pictures sooner. We were already at dessert by the time I remembered to take out my camera.

Traci, Kathy and mom


Mom really likes her sweets, how many cookies is that?

Breanna just would not sit still for a normal picture.

The Creme Brulee was so good!

"Angel! why don't you just get another one?"

Lori, Breanna and Traci

Ada really likes her crab legs!

Traci was reaching for a small jar of jam when she hit her head on the sneeze shield. Her Aunt Lori made her re-enact it for this picture. "C'mon, you have so many embarassing moments on me, let me have this one"

They also asked me to take a picture of this. How did I miss this one?

The Paris buffet also has a crepe bar. Sammi look what you missed!!

The Paris buffet was ok. There were a few things that was disappointing but the company more than made up for it. No matter what we end up doing, we always have a lot of fun doing it.

Palms and Red Rock Canyon

We got all settled over at Tony and Letisha's, we gave the families a call to see what was the day's agenda.
Lunch at The Palms buffet, shopping and/or Red Rock Canyon. Nice...


Right side.

Table 1

Table 2



Table 3
There was 2 other tables. The Hostess' eyes bugged out a little when we told them we were a party of 28. I don't think she plays poker... heheheh

While some opted for the shopping and others for hitting the tables, I went with the Red Rock Canyon group.

Not at Red Rock Canyon, I just wanted to take this picture... Didn't know Grumpy had a gas station...

No we didn't go here.

We were a little worried that it was going to start to rain, but it cleared right up even though it was 44 degrees and windy!


Kenny and Annie

James, Tony, Grace, Kenny, Annie and me


James was wondering why it was called Red Rock Canyon...


Grace taking a shot.

At the Sandstone Quarry.




2 clowns in front, 2 clowns in the middle and a shaggy dog in the back...

Celebrating the fact that we got as far as we did (it really wasn't that far up).

Killer view!

Tony's new computer wallpaper.

Leaving the view to Grace.

"uh, Kenny, shouldn't we wait for Grace?"

This guy just ran up like it was nothing... Grrrr

This guy was hopping around from rock to rock...

It was a great day. I've never been to Red Rock Canyon, glad I did.
