Thanksgiving 2008 - Las Vegas!

This year we took a 3 & 1/2 hour road trip to Las Vegas for Thanksgiving to be with Mom and Dad Mitchell who just moved to Vegas this summer. It had been several months since we had all been together and it was such a blessing to all spend quality time together, full of laughter and joy! Here's dad carving the turkey...16 pounds of it.
My personal favorite, pumpkin pie.

Wednesday night we had a little dance party as a family...would you believe it lasted over an hour? :) Nate DJ'ed and all of us busted some serious moves.
Does the whole world have Costco rolls at their Thanksgiving table...they are the best!

The star of the show...the cook.


The day after Thanksgiving we did the Las Vegas Strip with Mom and Dad- our first time ever. It was so amazing. Once it got dark, and the lights lit up it was a sight to see!
Dinner at the Planet Hollywood casino.
The water symphony show at the Bellagio- this was incredible!

Here we are outside the Venetian- this casino/hotel was our favorite. Inside you feel like you are literally walking in a palazzo in Italy.

Paris...in Vegas...at night.

Posing with Caesar himself.

Inside the Bellagio was this amazing atrium decorated for Thanksgiving- all the flowers you see behind us are real.
