Well here goes.
These cute kids and their parents were visiting us at the beginning of they year (If you don't remember that, you didn't read the other post I wrote from the link above).
You may recall that the olympics were held in SLC in 2002. Well I had never been to the olympic park and so we decided to check it out in mid-January.
Also in January Heather took me on a super cool Amazing Race themed date, complete with Fast Forwards, Roadblocks, and Detours.
It ended with a fun game of bowling.
We always seem to go to Las Vegas during or in between Martin Luther King Day and Presidents Day. This year was no exception.
Here's Heather with one of the MGM lions.
Amy had a resolution this year to play the slots. She's lived in Vegas all this time and had never gambled before. What a good person she is! Well we're all a good influence on her to make this resolution aren't we? (Sorry Amy I didn't get your permission 1st before sharing these!)
Well she really took to it.
She was gambling all weekend
Not really, but I made it seem that way right? And she actually came out somewhat ahead after like 3 slot pulls, on of which I did (hey it wasn't my dollar right?)!
Anyway, after we pealed Amy's body from the slots we decided to go put our money into machines that don't give you back money (but it was still a lot of fun).
These were taken at the Pinball Hall of Fame. You should go check it out next time you are in Vegas. They had a pretty fun Russia vs. USA game. It was a lot of fun, but I think I lost.
Well after all that gambling Amy felt like she needed to repent and go to the temple so on Sunday we checked out the Las Vegas temple which I had never seen before and I thought it was pretty darn cool. Although they really should have fountains there.
On Valentine's Day instead of giving Heather a real gift I finally finished the puzzle we had started during Christmas (my family is big on puzzles during the holidays). Heather always gets mad at me for not wanting to work on puzzles, when I start them, because I get lazy/bored about them during the time it takes to finish them.
This puzzle is called "State Birds and Flowers" its in a box in our game closet, so we always tease that we want to play the game "State Birds and Flowers" when its really a puzzle.
A few weeks later we finally decided to take the puzzle down.
Maybe more of 2010 next month?
