Gardening Fun
So, we attempted to dig up the garden earlier this week with a shovel. We got about one row in and I gave up. Our garden plot is way too big for that. We would have had to spend 4-5 hours digging it up and with how busy I am, I don't really have time to get that done in a timely fashion. So jokingly yesterday morning I said to Eric that he should go rent a tiller and I expected that garden to be tilled by the time I got home. I stated that this was a joke and we laughed. Well, by the time I got home yesterday the garden was completely tilled. :) Now if it would just stop snowing I could actually plant something outside!

Viva Las Vegas!
I'm not as picture crazy as the rest of the family, but I did actually remember to take some pictures on the vaca. Unfortunately, I don't post multiple pictures very often, so this is kind of out of order.
Enjoy!
Here I am being a degenerate gambler. I'm a super high roller and only played penny slots.
This is the view from our hotel room. We got a free upgrade to the tower and had a gorgeous view of the mountains.
Here we are with our giant sunglasses on the strip.
Here we are at the airport on the way to Vegas. Yay Minneapolis airport.
Here's the Vegas strip.
In this one you can see the Luxor, where we stayed. It's the pyramid on the right side of the picture.
Here I am with the Crazy Girls statue. It's hot right? I just wanted to beat mom at having the most scandalous picture of the week. Eric has a more scandalous picture, but it wasn't appropriate to post.
This is after we left the fancy casinos of the Luxor and MGM because we didn't feel at home and went to the north end of the strip to the ghetto casinos. This is us after a few $1 beers at the Circus Circus, good times.
This is the $.99 hotdog we got at the circus circus and it's next to a terrifying dirty rag on top of a trash can. Apparrently we really enjoyed our beer because we thought this was hillarious.
Here I am being a degenerate gambler again. This time I have my cigarette prop. You can see I won an amazing .62 cents at the penny slots. (I started with $1).
All in all we had a pretty fun time. We walked way too much and almost lost the use of our legs after the first day.
Also would like to give you some of my favourite Vegas quotes:
"It's Lady Liberty!" -small child exclaimed at 1:30 AM on our way from the airport to our hotel in the shuttle when he saw the Statue of Liberty at the New York New York. Probably the funniest thing that happened the entire time we were in Vegas.
"All the happy people are wearing comfortable shoes." -me after realizing that all the shoes I brought were a mistake.

Spring & Vegas
Spring is finally here in Madison. It's about 60 today, it's fabulous. Next weekend I plan to start my gardening. I would this weekend, but Eric and I are going to Vegas for vaca. I will post pictures once we return!
