LA/Vegas trip

So about a week and a half ago Andres and I went down to LA to visit my sister, brother-in-law, and niece. We left thursday morning and stopped in Vegas for the night. Andres served his mission in Vegas so we visited some of the people that he knew and then we stayed with a man who he taught. It was pretty fun. We were going to go on the Strip that night but we were both so tired that we hit the sack early instead. The next morning we got up around 9 and left for LA. It took way longer to get to LA than it should have because we got lost once and got on the interstate the wrong way once. When we finally got to LA I was SO surprised at how big Rebecca had gotten, SHE'S HUGE! Later that night Rachel cooked yummy Stromboli for us and we watched a lot of The Office.

The next day was when the REAL fun began! We got up and went to the swapmeet and got some cool stuff. Next we went to my sister's favorite sushi restaurant which was SO yummy. That night we went to see the stars on hollywood. That was really cool! We took a TON of pictures. Unfortunatly my camera acts funny....i'm gonna have to return it. Anyways, we also went to a really cool mall that was partly inside and partly outside. Here's a picture from Johnny Rockets of me and Rebecca. :)That night we got home late and crashed! Here are a couple of picture from that night for Rachel:

The next morning we got up early and drove back to Vegas where we went to one of Andres' old wards. This ward also happened to be Gladys Knights ward. I had Andres take a picture of her:) I felt kinda bad though cause it was in the chapel. After sacrament meeting we went to visit some people again and then went to The Strip. We couldn't take too much of that- Vegas isn't really the cleanest place. However, we did see this fun water show. As you can imagine, it was better in person, but here a part of it:

Then we went to the in-and-out burger before we finally came home. We got home really late, but the trip was really fun and totally worth it. We both want to go back in a few months.
