We couldn't get enough of Las Vegas last weekend when we went down for the wedding of Trent's cousin Kevin. This time Trent's boss paid for the trip(woohoo!) so we couldn't turn it down. We went for the Conexpo(Construction Expo, Trent works at a gravel pit). It was HUGE! To say the least. There were lots of loaders, dozers, and all sorts of big equipment. We also enjoyed the city, in spite of the constant lack of fresh air due to cigarette smoke! We stayed at the Excalibur hotel and were there for 4 days. It was lots of fun, and a good way to de-stress on spring break! Here are some pics from the trip!At the expo... Toby in a loader
Here I am in a skid-steer...Trent uses this at work a lot!
Trent also found his Dream Car, a Ferrari!
We went to the Stratosphere...Trent rode the Big Shot on top, I wussed out! But, I did ride the New York, New York roller coaster!
We went to the M&M factory, it smells like chocolate mmmm. They taught us how they make M&M's. We also went to the coke factory.
This apron reads..."I am smoking hot!"
We watched the fountains at Bellagio, from the ground and from the top of the Eiffel Tower at the Paris hotel. Trent says he doesn't have to take me to Paris, France now...apparently he thinks a $10 elevator ride to the top of a hotel does Paris justice. (It was really cold up there, if you can't tell by the picture)All in all, it was a great trip, and thanks to Trent's boss, it was also easy on the pocket book!
