Las Vegas between Christmas 2015 and New Years 2016

We vacationed in Vegas at the end of last year. Jaylee's favorite thing was walking on the overpasses and seeing the cars go under us.  To the right is a view from our Marriott Towers window (thank you anita for letting us use the time share!)
I think the beds were big enough...
Since I got sick one of our first days there, Griffin took Jaylee for some good Daddy daughter time. Daddy knew exactly where to take Jaylee...the M&M store. We are STILL working on eating the huge bag of M&M's they hand picked.Each night we enjoyed some family time playing games.
Vegas is known for the amazing buffets and after an hour and 45 minute wait it better be good. It fulfilled all of  Griffin's dreams. And Jaylee got her first ice cream cone!!!
But by far the thing Jaylee remembers most as being fun is going to Circus Circus! We took Jaylee on their tracks for fun and then walked the rest of the way to Circus Circus. 
Jaylee could have stayed on these rides forever! But in order to get home in time for bed we had to leave far too soon for her liking. Griffin pushed me and Jaylee in the wheelchair to conserve my energy so I wouldn't get migraines. Thank you Griffin.

We also took time to go to the Flamingo Hotel where they have a beautiful garden with flamingos and birds and fish and more!
My favorite picture from Vegas is this one right here where Jaylee is trying to imitate the flamingos.

Another favorite for Jaylee was the giant jet tub. We started with having a family bath since all of us could fit! lol. And with a little help from some make shift  toys, Jaylee was entertained for about 45 minutes after. :)Here are some of the treats Daddy and Jaylee picked up at the M&M store

After the festivities in Vegas we drove home New Years Eve and stayed the night in Bakersfield, where I spotted this beautiful sign. I couldn't resist taking a picture in honor of my dear friend Ming Shen. :)
