Easter


 Easter morning the girls found their baskets and went on an egg hunt.



 
 

We got ready for church and went to a beautiful Easter Mass at St. Thomas in Goodyear.



Jeff and Shauna came over later for an Easter dinner.  We also celebrated Drew's birthday.  Shauna made him his favorite dessert... brownies.

Las Vegas

We spent Monday and Tuesday exploring Las Vegas.  This was Drew's first trip to Vegas.  During the day we pretty much walked up and down the strip, walking in and out of the different hotel/casinos.  I was so proud of Emmy!  She walked everywhere!
 
After two days in Vegas, we asked the girls "What was your favorite thing in Las Vegas?"
Emmy's response was the yogurt smoothie she got in the Venetian at the Haagen Dazs Smoothie Bar.

Keelin's response was the fountains at the Bellagio. 
 
 



 
 Day 2: Tuesday
We walked down to Mandalay Bay to see the sharks, but the line was soooooo long!  We ate lunch there instead.
 
 
 

 The girls would not let us walk by the m&m store without going in!
 
 
 Drew and I went out both Monday and Tuesday evenings.  I only have pictures from Tuesday evening.  On Monday, we went out to dinner at Cabo Wabo and pretty much sat on the deck and people watched.  On Tuesday, Drew and I went down to New York, New York to see a Cirque Du Soleil show.


We also played a few slot machines and went to a sports book.

Hoover Dam

On Monday, we headed to Las Vegas for 3 days.  We stopped at the Hoover Dam on our way.
 
 
 Our family
We walked out on the new bridge that was built over the dam. This first sight of the dam was breathtaking!




 Don't look down!

Phoenix Zoo

On Sunday, March 24th, we planned to go to a preseason baseball game but when we arrived at the field, the tickets were all sold out.  Fortunately for the girls, the Phoenix Zoo was less than a mile away.  Change of plans!
 

Keelin was very skittish around the goats!  Emmy on the other hand brushed every single goat in the petting area.  I think I had pictures of Emmy with 7 different goats!

Emmy had to roar at the tiger!
