Fun with Cindy-Lou-Who



We had SUCH a great time with my little sis! We partied like we had just graduated from high school... oh, wait. She did!

Anyway, we have WAY too many pictures-- so you have been warned: This is a L-O-N-G post.


Thanks for coming to see us CINNY! We love you!









We were on the strip watching the water show just minutes after she got off the airplane. The boys were so excited to see her, but Zack was SUPER shy. I have never seen him like this. Ever time she looked at him, he pretended to be asleep. It was hilarious! He's NOT sleeping here, he's a total faker!







At the Bellagio Conservatory and Fountains.. our fav place in Vegas!


Walking around at the Springs Reserve. It was hot, hot, hot!
Cindy captured an action shot of Aaron pouring water in my mouth.
If you click on it, you can see that he actually got some inside..
and the rest was all over my face and down my shirt, but it was great to be cooled off!

Aaron, Cindy and I had WAY too much fun in the kiddie area in the pool!



Sonic at MIDNIGHT... and then we went to Walmart at 1 am (with kids!)
We seriously PARTIED!!


Had to take her on the top of The Stratosphere. We rode the rides until we BOTH threw up.
Does that sound like fun or WHAT?

We couldn't get ENOUGH sun!

I didn't transfer our temple trip pictures before we headed to UT, so that will have to be later.
I will be out of the blogging world for a while..
we're celebrating my Grandma June's 80th Birthday! Woo-freaking-hoo!!

Those are some of the cutest little picture collages I've ever seen. Seriously great pictures. I can't believe how grown up Cindy looks. I just saw her a couple of years ago, but (if its possible) she looks even more beautiful now. It looks like you guys had such a blast. Way fun.

This post makes me want to get out and do more this summer in Vegas. It looks like you guys didn't take a single moment for granted while Cindy was here. It was fun to meet her. She's very cute.

P.S. Isn't it Springs PRESERVE, not reserve? Not to be nit-picky or anything - hmmm maybe I'm the confused one, since I've only been there once. You're not allowed to make any mistakes in your posts, Janet! Not even exciting ones with lots of pictures!

I wish I lived in Vegas. You Shumway/Clawsons know how to pack in the fun. Or you are insane. Either one. But with kids in Walmart at 1AM I am leaning towards insane.

Brooke said...

Looks like a party there in Vegas... even with all the heat!

Do you still want to do a park day with everyone while you are up here in SL next week?

Emilee said...

Looks like some serious fun in the sun! I love how having visitors makes us get out & enjoy our town a little more.

I think I could handle the rides, but Walmart at 1 am makes me want to throw up.

I can't beleive I was just in your home town and didn't get to party with you. At least I'll get to see you this week. It was HOT!! Looks like you had a good time with Cindy. She is as beautiful as ever!! Why were you at Walmart at 1 am? and it's so funny how kids fake asleep. Avaree does that too. Hopefully I'll see you soon!

So where are you????

tida6 said...

Sister, Sister, never was there such devoted sister. Glad you had a good time with your sis. There is so much to see in Vegas. Was that Wet and Wild water park that you went to? Man you guys really pack in the fun.

Janessa said...

Janet, I so wish that we could play while you are in town.
Hopefully we will work it out soon!

Jas & Cam Fam said...

Looking at your pictures makes me homesick for LV! Looks like you guys have had a lot of fun!
FOr Jas's 30th we ate at the top of the world and agree...we should have just eaten at McDOnalds and saved the rest for a new car! THe view is all that you pay for. I even just got an appetizer and we still paid a ton!

Brooke said...

You guys know how to party! When can WE come visit?
