Las Vegas & New Family Toy!

This past weekend we drove up to Las Vegas to pick up a boat Dan had bought! Here is our new fun toy! We decided that we might as well take advantage of the the warm weather in Las Vegas and spend a night on Lake Mead. The water was so warm and the weather was BEAUTIFUL!!!



We found a really cool private beach where we set up our tents. The water was shallow for a good 15 to 20 feet with really nice soft sand throughout. It was perfect for the kids.

We bought the kids snorkeling gear. They had a lot of fun with that.

This is Dan and Jay trying to find fish under the water. Did you know that fish like Spaghetti O's?


The kids had a lot of fun with the tube. We also bought a knee board and wake board in Orem before we left for Vegas. This was the first time I had driven a boat and even Dan said he was impressed.

Two beautiful picture~

The weather was so nice at night. It only got down to about 73 degrees late in the night and about 99 during the day. It was so peaceful and relaxing. Having the water just a step away was so neat.
