I know, I know, we live in a desert...but there is a lake here. Ever heard of Lake Mead? It is beautiful. The lake is as blue as the sky. Last Saturday, October 8, we decided to check it out. We were really pleased. See... Vegas IS pretty!
Right after we visited Lake Mead, we stopped by Hoover Dam. It was pretty awesome and it was SO HOT! It still feels like summer here.
What did the fish say when it hit the wall? (Get it??)
Here I am in front of the Hoover Dam Bypass. Pretty remarkable.
Hoover Dam
This past week we FINALLY got visitors. My brother Justin stayed with us for the week. Poor guy had to sleep on an air matress all week. We had a blast though. We showed him around UNLV, ate a lot of food, and played some games. Here we are on our patio. The weather right now is so perfect.
Yesterday we had Rachel (Greg's sister) and Mom Burr here visiting. We showed them Lake Mead and Hoover Dam. Mom Burr took us out to Olive Garden and we played lots of games. I am getting really good at Authors and Ticket to Ride. Maybe we need to invest in more games.
