Wyatt, of all people, wanted to visit Las Vegas this year. I put my money on the Lotus scene from Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief as to why he wanted to go so bad. Knowing that Vegas is not really a horribly great place for children, we decided to focus a lot of our time at Circus Circus and did a tour at Hoover Dam. If you’ve not been to LV in some time, Circus Circus has added Adventuredome. It’s a whole add-on building that houses an entire theme park! You can click on the link after reading to see more.

Circus Circus

We arrived in Vegas Saturday afternoon and stayed our first night in a small motel off The Strip to save some money. We were still pretty close to all the action, but it was a lot cheaper and had a swimming pool. We went into town and hit the Midway at Circus Circus. Wyatt played a lot of the games and we watched a cool circus act where a couple of guys juggled each other by their feet. Wyatt won a few prizes and some tickets. It being a holiday weekend, parking was atrocious! That was my least favorite part of the whole trip. It was also about 106 degrees the entire time!

Garage Sale a Huge Success!

Thanks to all the bargain-hunters in the area, we were able to sell a ton of our stuff! I also need to give the Man Upstairs a lot of credit for holding off the rain until the moment we closed up! We sold just over $300 worth of items. With our friends, the Baileys and Rachel’s two sisters, we totaled over $500!! It was incredible and we were pretty busy throughout the day. We ended up taking what was left to the local Deseret Industries (thrift store) and will try to sell some items on eBay or through the classifieds.

Our neighbors, who were also having a sale, suggested we do it again next weekend. We considered it but after feeling the exhaustion we decided against it. We may do another one before school starts. We’ll have to see!

Thanks again!

Garage Sale!

We are preparing for our first Garage Sale as a family. We are hoping to have it put together and planned for a weekend in June. We have a lot of stuff in our “storage” that we can really do without and started going through it a bit. There’s a lot of young boy’s clothes, old computer stuff and who knows what else.

We are also going to be talking with the neighbors to see if they are also interested in joining us and we can have a block style sale.

I will be updating and posting on Facebook as we get closer to that time. It should be grand!
