Reno!!!

This past weekend we went to Reno with my grandparents. We took Laci with us and we left Friday afternoon. We drove to Reno and arrived around 2p. We had tickets to see Kate Voegele at the Grand Sierra Resort and so as soon as we arrived in Reno my grandparents went to gamble at Atlantis (where we were staying) and we drove to The G.S.R to get in line for the concert. We stood in line from 3pm til 7:15pm when we got let into the theater. After we got into the theater we stood in front of the stage til approx 8pm when Kevin Hammond went on stage as her opening act. He was AWESOME!! I had no clue who he was until that night but he was amazing. I recommend everyone to check him out. After he left at approx 8:30pm we stood there for an hour waiting for Kate. It was a little annoying but well worth it. From the time Kate took the stage until the end it was AMAZING. The set list was a little short but she doesnt make it. After the concert ended we had backstage passes so we got to go meet her and talk to her a little bit, she was so nice!! We told her we had driven 4.5hrs to get there and stood in line for 5 hours to see her, all with our 7.5 month old baby, she said we were super heros!!! After the meet and greet we went back to the hotel to get Laci from my grandparents and we went to bed since it was midnight. On Saturday we went to circus circus and played all of the arcade and circus style games. Jimmy gambled a little bit and won $230. We had a really good time. After that we went back to the hotel and took Laci swimming in the pool, she had a blast kicking and splashing in the water. After that Jimmy and my grandpa went to gamble a little bit and I stayed upstairs in the room and looked for a place to eat. Jimmy won another $100 during that and decided he was finished. We got ready and went to pizza (amazing) and then went to the Disney Princesses on Ice show. We had really good seats and it was so fun. Laci loved watching them skate with all of the lights and music, and she sat through 2.5 hours of it with no problems. On Sunday we got up and went to breakfast and then decided to hit the road. We went to Trader Joe's to get some strawberry Australian licorice, and then we went to the huge Cabela's. It was so big and had hundreds of stuffed animals. It was so cool and Laci really enjoyed watching the fish in the aquarium. After that we went the rest of the way home. We are all so tired but it was so worth it and we cant wait to go back again!!
