We arrived in Las Vegas last night at 6:35pm Vegas time. Our flight was actually 25 minutes early! We ran into old friends Vicki and Dan Brewer at the airport. They were going to Vegas too and were on our flight. The boys had fun on the flight and laughed a lot. They said there must be laughing gas in the air.
When we got Vegas we rented a car and drove to the Excalibur. The boys were very impressed with the hotel. We didn't do much last night. After we walked down to the M&M store - they were ready to go back to the room. They complained that there is nothing good on TV. I told them most people in Vegas don't spend much time in their room.
This morning, after breakfast, we checked out of the hotel and drove down to the Stratosphere. We went to the top (108th floor). It was a great view. We weren't able to go to the outside observation deck because it started lightening and then raining. After that we started on our way to Arizona. The Hoover Dam was right on the way - so we stopped there for a little bit. It started raining there too. I thought it wasn't supposed to rain in the desert!
We made it to the Holiday Inn in Williams, AZ at around 5:30 tonight. They have an indoor pool and hottub so we went swimming for a bit before dinner. And now here we are!
The Grand Canyon tour will pick us up at 10:00 in the morning. Should be fun!
This first picture is the boys on the plane.

Hey! We are glad to hear from you. Sounds like you are doing just fine. Jake had a ballgame tonight that lasted till almost 10, so we got home late. They lost 5-9. Jake made some good hits. Mom went out with Debbie today and I taught Jesse.
Tomorrow is wash day, so Mom will be home all day. I will be home most of the time. I have to workout and go get some flowers.
Until later, Love, Dad, Grandpa
