On the 15th of May Shaun and I drove to Las Vegas partly for his brithday, and to get away, and mostly because our dad (Shaun's dad) was getting married on the 16th at the Graceland chapel. We had a blast being with family! Shaun's brother, Brandon and his adorable wife Krysten, and Shaun's sister Shannon came to Vegas to be there for the ceremony as well.
The first day we got there, the other siblings hadnt arrived yet so Shaun and I went to lunch at the yummy buffet with his dad and his finace. After that I got to go get a manicure and pedicure with Sue (his finace) for her big day! After that Shaun and I went to the Tournament of Knights show and had a great time! It was the first show I have ever seen in Las Vegas on the Strip so I was super excited! After the show we walked around a bit, and enjoyed being together. Later that night around 11:30 Brandon and Krysten arrived in Vegas so we got to spend time with them! We talked for a while and then made a late night ice cream run...except by the time we got back Shaun and I were pooped so we went to be...WITHOUT ICE CREAM! It was lame.
The next day was wedding day!!!
We woke to Shannon getting there. She couldnt come till Saturday morning so she got there around 9am. After she arrived we made a yummy breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and bacon. After that we went down to the pool and went swimming..I decided I needed to work on my tan...or start one, so I only swam for a little while. After we went swimming and went back to the room we cleaned up and went to lunch at the yummy buffet AGAIN!
Then it was time to get ready for the wedding! We went to the Graceland chapel, where they were married by Elvis. It was really fun and it was a sweet ceremony. Jason and Sue are such a cute couple and we all FELL IN LOVE with Sue when we met her. After the wedding we went back to their room which was just down the hall from ours, and we had some yummy food and lots of Sparkling Apple Cider. The party came to an end, and we said goodbye to Shannon who was leaving to make it back in time for her responsibilities at church. After that Shaun and I went walking up the Strip with Brandon and Krysten and saw the Bellagio Water Show, parts of the Pirate Show and we also saw an assortment of people....We walked around until very early morning then woke up just in time for check out. It was an amazing trip and we had so much fun with Shauns brother and his wife, and it was awesome to see family and be there for Jason and Sue's Wedding!!!!

While we were in Vegas our dad, got married at the Graceland chapel, by Elvis! It was awesome, and surprisingly a very classy wedding ceremony. This is the wedding party minus Sue's son.
Our dad, Jason, and his new wife Sue! This is right after we ate at the awesome buffet in Excalibur while we were waiting for Valet to bring the car.
Excalibur at night. This is where we spent a lot of our time. We went to the Tournament of Knights dinner and show. It was an awesome show, and the food was pretty good, minus having to eat with our hands. We also found an awesome buffet with super yummy food, that is buy one get one free between 2-6pm, so two of us ate for just under 20 dollars!!
