Our First Night of Vacation



This is at the pirate show at Treasure Island. I could not see one thing, but Gavin had a great view from daddy's shoulders. Jackson slept in the stroller through the whole thing.

Here are the many faces of Gavin. Just trying to keep ourselves entertained
in the parking garage as daddy went to get the car.Here are some cool pictures I took that night as we were driving on the Blvd.

Fun Morning at Town Square

They had the coolest play area in the middle of the shopping center. The first pictures of Gavin are when he was in this really fun maze. Gavin ran through it and loved getting lost. Jackson on the other hand got frusturated after about 1 minute and just tried to bulldoze his way through the walls (which are concrete and covered in artificial grass). The kids ate lunch there had fun running around.

For all the food lovers...

We went to a buffet. I know, gross. But it was so much fun. The Mandalay Buffet had such good food. I am very skeptical and wary of any buffet and probably have tried 2 or 3 in my life, so I was really amazed by the quality of everthing they offered. I'm a dork and I took pictures of the desserts, because frankly, I'm just not a baker and they were so pretty.

Lazy River

Our last day we checked out and then went and hung out at the pool for a bit. We loved the lazy river which had a swift current that actually whipped us around the corners! Jackson was a little shivery in this pool so I had to sit out with him. After a few hours at the pool we were ready to get our trek home started.

We had such a great time. Gavin even tells strangers about our vacation. He says he got to see real pirates and sharks! That reminds me: one of the funniest things was that everytime we got in the elevator with someone, Gavin would strike up a conversation by asking when their birthday was. After they told him, he would look at me to see if I was excited for their birthdays like I am for his. Of course I was! It was just really cute. Everyone loved it. Then he would continue to talk to them about everything he got to see and do that day. Maybe introduce them to his stuffed doggy, Tucker. You gotta love three year olds!
