Trip to Laughlin

For the 4th of July weekend we decided to go with our friends to Laughin in Nevada.
We stopped off on Thursday night in Beaver to pick up our friend and as his family has a cabin up in the mountains we all stayed the night there. There aren't any photos of the cabin as it was dark when we got there but it was amazing - more like a house than a cabin.
We got straight to business and busted out the fire and s'mores - yum!

Everyone trying to balance on each other's shoulders - not sure why???

We finally made it to Laughin and oh my, it was hot! I think the average temperature was 116 so we had to entertain ourselves in the hotel.........

This is the first time I've ever won at gambling - $14 from $2 - I just knew Kitty Glitter was my winning machine :)

We spent a lot of time at the pool - it was really relaxing....you may be asking, why are they in a hot tub in 116 degrees.....I'm afraid there's no logical answer!!

More balancing on each other- I think we're all pros now

Justin had the great idea to float the Colorado river to his Grandparents' house. We tied all 5 tubes together and it was so much fun but if the guy on the wave runner hadn't towed us to shore we'd probably be in Mexico by now!

I can't stop laughing every time I see this photo - it reminds me of a Tom Cruise skit!

I think the heat finally got to us!!

On our way home - Dusty was so tired

Derek came to stay for a few days and this was taken at the park by our house...pretty sunset!

Dusty, Justin and Derek all have birthdays within 3 weeks of each other so we bought them a cake and added the number of candles for all their ages combined - it nearly lit the garage on fire!!

I think they all got a big wish this year :)

WHOOT!! Give it up for the money winner! I would have been stoked about the 14 bucks, too. I never win anything, especially from slots.

Looks like Dusty had a great b-day. However, i totally would have died in that hot weather. And going into the hot tub? That's insane. I would have melted. But you two like the heat, huh? Crazies.

I have the feeling Kitty Glitter is my machine too.

I knew Kitty Glitter would be Kyle's machine too. There's no way he would pass that up. Thinking of you guys in the hot tub in that heat made me feel a little faint. I've been way to hot lately to tolerate that.

Who could resist Kitty Litter's charms :) You're right rain - we love the heat but even this was a little too hot for us!!

Shout out to the birthday boy again!

I haven't seen that much male skin together in the same pic since, well, never! Tell me there was alcohol involved? If not, should we worry about Dusty's sexual preference?? Ha ha, I'm mostly just kidding of course!

Very entertaining Sarah - looks like you're having great fun. Love the bikini and the waspish waist, mind you don't overdo it!!

That hot tub is huge! I once one $30 from $1 in a slot machine on a layover at the Vegas airport.
