Our Weekend

Thank you to the Jewish people for yet another long weekend. Derek had another 4 1/2 day weekend so we had fun. Friday night the kids brought home awesome progress reports so we decided to reward them a little by taking them to Chuck E Cheese. With coupons you can't beat the price. It's less expensive than going to a restaurant, a little noisier though. The Chuck E Cheese here has some cool games too!

Saturday, we hung out and then decided to go see the temple grounds. Unfortunately, the grounds were closed due to the Relief Society Broadcast so, we decided to go to the strip. We have been wanting to go show the kids the Venetian, so we went there and then we decided to go to the Caesar's Palace forum shops to go to the Cheesecake Factory for a piece of cheesecake. It turned out to be a good trip to the mall. Allison found $315 on the ground. We looked around to see if anyone was missing it and went and asked someone who worked there where we could turn it in. They said that there was no place to turn it in and that if we turned it into any of the workers that they would just pocket it. So, we decided to keep it. So, we voted on what we could get that the whole family would enjoy. The kids have been wanting a Nintendo Wii since we went to Elko so we got one. They have been having tons of fun with it.

This was a real person. I would have never guessed if Derek didn't tell me.
