Brothers of the Sun



After we got home from four days in Vegas, Remberto and I celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary at the Brothers of the Sun concert tour at Anaheim Stadium featuring Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney!



While walking into the stadium, I stumbled across Tim McGraw working out near his caravan. Yes....that is Tim in the red hat!!


Can't really tell here, but Tim is standing on that large tire and lifting weights


Here's how the stadium looked from our seats an hour before the concert started


Here's how it looked about an hour into the concert


We enjoyed some sun for the first couple hours of the concert


Tim McGraw singing


A little blurry, but here we are at the end of the 7+ hours we were at this concert!!!

What Happened in Vegas.....

On our way!


Stopped to eat at Stateline


Mandalay Bay here we come!








Finally!! Our suite!

Kids room


Main room


Another bedroom

We barely set our suitcases down before heading off to the Shark Reef inside Mandalay Bay




A HUGE lizard...and Linda and Sidney, too!




Weird looking thing


Stingrays we could touch






Now that is a big shark!


Finished off Day One with frozen yogurt and crepes


Steven chose sweet and Kennidy shose savory (on the right)


Yum!


And Sidney chose a cupcake!


Day Two started with a tram ride!


Then a walk through a smoky casino. Yuck! Well...it is Vegas.


Then outside to the strip for a LONG walk

Sidney liked the sights


Kennidy under the Statue of Liberty replica




Sid, Steven and Linda pose with Bumblebee and some other guy. Man what people will do for a couple bucks! We tipped each of these guys $5. This is a $10 picture!!! They earned it though in those hot suits when it was 113 degrees outside.


Daddy's favorite show! NCIS

Linda, Kennidy, Steven and Remberto experienced the CSI exhibit


Of course no kid trip to Vegas would be complete without a visit to the crowded M&M store and.......


.....the over-priced Coke store


Walking back to the hotel we stopped inside the New York New York hotel and Steven and Kennidy.......


...survived the roller coaster! They loved it!


Day Three started off with another tram ride. Thank goodness for those air conditioned trams!


Kids played video games




We saw the strip at night!




Day Four we finally hit the pool (and good thing because it started raining the next day!)
Sidney jumps to daddy!




Then it was back out onto the strip......


.....and up to the top of the Eiffel Tower replica


What a view!


Sidney wasn't so sure of this at first, but then really enjoyed the view!


Looking down onto the Bellagio




Back down on solid ground. Phew!




We are a couple of pooped out parents here!  :)
