Weekly Adventure

We will be heading to Vegas this week, yes another road trip, it will be great. Although we are going to rent a minivan, so I will be under disguise, because there can not be any evidence of me driving a minivan ever!! ( A promise I made to God if he let me be a mom.)

We are going for a wedding, Karst's brother Brian and Ramee are getting married aren't they just darling!!

So we are going to attempt to go to these places in Vegas:
