st george, part II

first and foremost i must say this before i begin another st george story...
happy birthday BABY MOLLY, we love you and can't imagine life without you!!!


and now we begin our saturday story of life in southern utah. molly came down to the theatre room (where i was sleeping, nice and dark) and woke me up at 8:30. she was mad that she had already been up for an hour because of the sunlight in her bedroom. then, the three girls went for a run outside (this puts a lovely tan on your face) and it ended up killing us physically. we then got ready and were off to vegas.


we took a shot of us before we were leaving. in this photo is aunt dixine, uncle ross, grandma hoyt, me, molly, and nic. oh, we were so excited to get on our way.
we first went to these outside shops that were a ways down the strip kind of off by mandalay bay. let me tell you this mall is worth coming to vegas for!! it had this courtyard in the middle of mall that had a big old park for kids to play in and a water area too! and then the shops they had...oh, all the wonderful shops. we first ate some japanese food, per molly, she had to get her sushi on!! ps, we could have totally gotten nicole to drink some sake by convincing her it was japanese lemonade, she had no idea what sake was...don't worry we didn't. then we went to h&m, that store was so much fun and also where i spent most of my money. it was a wonderful place to spend some time (the picture was taken just outside of h&m). then we made our way over to ceasar's palace to walk around the mall there. we decided to stop in the casino and each play a dollar in one of the slot machines. the three of us sit down, put in our money, 2 seconds later molly yells "my money is all gone". nicole then says "i am up $1.40" which makes molly start yelling " CASH OUT CASH OUT CASH OUT". nic keeps playing and ends up with .40 cents. meanwhile i keep hitting buttons until it won't let me anymore and i have to cash out .08 cents. molly is now obsessed with turning in our reciepts to get our money. i throw away my reciept to which molly cries out"WHY, WHY WOULD YOU THROW AWAY 8 CENTS". i just look at her like she is nuts. we then walk into the mall and decide we are in too much pain from running to walk around and decide to leave vegas. as we are leaving we find a machine for nic to put in her reciept for 40 cents. it was hilarious, we are standing in line watching people cash out nothing less than $100 and here we are waiting for 40 cents. when we got back to st george we stopped and got food at in n out burger (heavenly) and molly ate cold left over veggie pizza (i made a joke about this that made nicole crack up, molly was in the bathroom and i yelled to her MOLLY HURRY UP YOUR PIZZA IS GETTING COLD, then i turned to nic and said I AM SO FUNNY and she is dying of laughter saying YOU REALLY ARE FUNNY).

what can i say, we all think we are a hoot to be with and completely enjoy eachothers company. i loved being with them all day long that day. and of course we ended the night sitting in the hot tub crying about our sore muscles.
