Homeless

For two weeks in the beginning of May we were between apartments. Things didn't get so bad that we had to stand on a street corner or go without bathing though. Thankfully we had lots of family and friends who were willing to put us up for a few nights here and there. So after a packing up our life into a trailer and a military cleaning to get out of our Provo apartment, Dima and I hit the open road and headed down to Vegas for a few days of blissful vacation after a month and a half of stress and excitement. It was so fun to be back in my old stomping grounds after so long and see how everything had changed, and yet stayed exactly the same. We spent our days sleeping in, going on beautiful hikes, watching movies, visiting friends, shopping, swimming, eating, and seeing some of Vegas' finest entertainment.

We attended the witty Penn & Teller magic show, the unique and hilarious Blue Man Group (my favorite), walked around the new City Center, Caesar's Palace, Town Square Mall, ate at Planet Hollywood, an AMAZING Italian place that I can't pronounce the name of, romped around Mt. Charleston and enjoyed the unique beauty of Red Rock, went to the temple, and just enjoyed being together.

The strip is so much better prettier at night.
We are so strong.
I may or may not be stuck at this point... :)
Haha, I love this picture... I think we are discussing whether to have the nice stranger take the picture vertically or horizontally... little did we know he'd already made the decision for us.
There once was an old woman who lived in a shoe.... / Check out all that bling!!!
