St. George/ Las Vegas Weekend

Last weekend my Dad had a young men's activity in St. George, and he decided it would be good for me and my mom to go stay down there and have a little mother/daughter weekend. We headed out Thursday morning and arrived around 1pm. We had lunch with my dad, then me and my mom headed over to the Hotel. We started out our trip with some relaxing pedicures! It was sooooo nice! We had some really nice ladies doing them. I've decided that is something I need to indulge in more often! Then we went out to dinner and decided to visit the St. George Temple visitors center. We ran into a really sweet Elder Missionary names Elder Davis. He told me and my mom lots of stories about that temple and walked around the temple grounds with us.

Friday morning we decided it would be best if we ventures over to Las Vegas :) We had a lot of fun talking and reminiscing in the car ride there. When we got there we parked at MGM because we had made reservations to eat at the Rainforest Cafe. Our reservations weren't for a while, so we decided to go visit the M&M factory. Lots of cute stuff there if you had lots of money!! I had noticed Madame Tusouds on the way in, so we went to a discount ticket booth and bought tickets for it. Then we walked back to MGM for our lunch. The atmosphere of the Rainforest Cafe was really fun! After lunch, we ended up getting lost-extremely lost- inside the MGM! It is grand for sure!! When we finally made our way back to the strip, we asked someone how far to the wax museum. They informed us it was at the other end of the strip!! So we got to walking in the 108 degree weather. We had to make pit stops in little shops along the way to cool off!! My flip flops were actually melting! We finally made it to the wax museum and had to sit down and rest for a while once we got inside!! Me and mom had a great time taking pictures with all of the celebrity wax figures. I was impressed that I convinced mom to get in better with Hef!!! Once we were leaving the museum, someone told us that there is a monerail you can take back to MGM. (would have been nice to know at the beginning of the day!!!) Once we got back to our Hotel, we hopped in the pool to cool off, then proceded to Spoon Me for some frozen yogurt.

We had such a great time!! I loved spending all that time with my mom, and was thankful that my dad provided us with such a great weekend!! We will definately have to go back with the rest of the sisters soon :)
