Spring Break 2007...We returned last night from our "last hurrah" trip to Vegas and the surrounding area. We put nearly 2000 miles on our rental cars and had a really great time. There were a few unplanned adventures including one trip to the emergency room at 1:00am (Isaac dropped his only bottle of insulin on the bathroom floor), once being pulled over, randomly running into Isaac's Ole friend Sarah Paulson at the Hoover Dam, and a midnight desperate search for lodging in Yosemite after finding no one on staff at the hotel we were supposed to stay at. But it all only added to the experience, especially since we ended up staying in a "yurt" in Yosemite, which was basically like a glorified tent with electricity, running water, and a gas fireplace. For the first half of the trip we rented a car and drove east to Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, and Lake Mead, home of the Hoover Dam. We then returned to Vegas for two days and stayed at the MGM Grand. Isaac gambled away the beginnings of the baby's college fund. To be fair, he started the fund by putting a quarter in a slot machine saying "this is for baby's college fund" and promptly winning $5. However, by the next day the fund had been returned to the slots. We rented a convertable for the second half of the trip and cruised out to Death Valley and Yosemite. Totally awesome. We had phenomenal weather all week, warm to hot and dry. Here are some pics...

hooray! I've been to to the desert west with Kayt before! I actually haven't been to Bryce yet- everyone says its tremendous.
our 'last trip' was to montreal. Only could manage three days, though, with all the jobs.
You look great! Best of luck in the next few weeks!
