Mid-November, Robert and I had big plans to camp/hike Havasupai Falls.  It is one fabulous sight with a pristine waterfall dropping into a gorgeous swimming area before burbling off down stream.  You have to call a year before to get the reservations to make the hike down to the falls, since it is on a reservation.  We were all set to go when Rob's knee went out on him.  Plus a cold front came in.  Plus, I had just taken gotten a call that told me that I most likely had DCIS and I needed a biopsy to confirm.  So, even though I had the reservation set, the equipment bought, and my mom and sister coming to town to watch the kids...we decided not to go.

We aren't dummies, however.  When a babysitter comes into town to watch your kids for 4 days, you don't just waste that opportunity.  Instead, Robert and I decided to go on a stay-cation.  That means, Vegas - baby!  Even though the strip is 15 minutes away, it aways seems like a completely different world.  We got a hotel near the strip.  We saw shows, stayed up late and ate in restaurants.  We even took naps in the afternoon.  (Is that sad that, that is one of my highlights?)  It was a lot of fun and I was able to take care my medical stuff at the same time.  A two-fer one.  :)

We managed to take 0 real pictures (just a bunch of selfies stuck somewhere on my phone)  of our little excursion, so what happens in Vegas, really does stay in Vegas this time.  It must be said that one night we picked up Lora and she joined me in jumping off the Stratosphere.  That was pretty awesome.  And not as scary as you might imagine.

We did manage to get a couple of pics of the replacement moms.  Here are our silly pictures.



Lora said that the trick to a great fish-kiss is bright red lipstick...so we ALL tried it out.  We do look pretty amazing.


Thank you silly ladies for watching my babies!
