Vegas Baby!!

Caroline and I visited Sean a few weekends ago at Nellis AFB in Las Vegas. It had been almost 7 weeks since Caroline had seen her daddy in person (she has a photo album with pictures of him that she looks at all the time). She recognized him immediatly, but acted very coy by putting her head on my shoulder and smiling. Then she warmed up and they had a blast playing together. We had so much fun on our visit.




Playing with daddy!

She was very interested in his uniform, and even pulled off his patches and chewed on them!

We went to the strip during the day and visited some of the more "family friendly" sites (yes, there are some!) Here is Caroline checking out the fish at the aquarium at The Forum Shops at Caesars.

We also made a stop at FAO Schwartz toy store. Caroline wanted a big stuffed dog...


But left with a small stuffed bear :)

The flamingos at the Flamingo Resort,

And MY favorite, the water show at the Bellagio. Caroline was not as impressed as I was! We finished up the day with an early dinner at P.F. Changs. Sean made sure we left before the "weirdos" came out. We spent the rest of the weekend just hanging out on base. It was hard to say good-bye, but Sean is doing really well and the time seems to be flying by. June will be here in no time I'm sure!

Hi Angela! I heard through the grapevine that you all are heading to Osan? Am I right? We've been here for about 6 weeks now. Just let me know if there's anything you need or questions you have, and I will be glad to help you anyway possible! Franny
