Four Jingle Bells

We met Michelle and my mom at the gardens at the Bellagio. We had to stop by the chocolate fountain. Yum-o. Almost convinced me to spend $5 on a gigantic chocolate covered strawberry....almost!

We went to Colorado for the 1st Bell Family Reunion. It was totally great. A 10 hour drive and one ticket later, we got there and the peace was so great. So nice to be somewhere without a million grumpy people and to see some trees! Thanks to the Shaws for all their hard work, time, energy and for Citizen Cope! Mindy and Ryan hosted the reunion this year and set up a Minute to Win it night. It was highly entertaining to say the least! Hailey did pretty well and is now shooting hair bands all over the house ever since! Can you get 7 penne's onto a spaghtetti without breaking it? I can't but Mindy and Kellie can! Technically, Barbie should be the last picture, but I am too lazy to make it happen. Mindy and Ryan had a garage sale Saturday morning and they had a bucket full of toys that we were not about to take home with us. Instead we hid some in Ryan's shop. He found our friend Barbie before we left and attached her to the car with some handy dandy computer ties. Barbi...

We have been meeting with my sister, Michelle and her kids and my mom every Tuesday to do some fun stuff in Las Vegas. Yes, there is fun stuff to do in Las Vegas! It was neat to see all the old pioneer stuff and the kids had a good time running around in the dirt. I had to take a picture by this tree because I really want a tree like this!
