visit with mom

my mom came the 11th and left yesterday and we saw a lot of stuff and we had tons of fun. here are some photos from the trip :) (there's quite a few of them!)


i put these pictures on from photobucket because the blogger image uploader takes forever. but then the blogger format cuts of some of the images, so to see the full image on some of them you're going to have to click on them. the ones that have been cut off will show the blogger border cut off as well








the hoover dam!






jason and my mom



looking straight down the dam



they're building a bridge over that canyon




my mom's boyfriend (mark) really wanted his picture taken in fron of that nevada time clock



here are some photos from inside the bellagio



















the chocolate fountain inside the bellagio





the roof inside the lobby



these are some photos of the water show. we didn't get a really great view, and the show was really short, but i think i got some good shots












this was a random lone duckling just sitting in the water, it was adorable


wolf creek golf course




mark pretending to play golf




this was in the gorge and i thought it looked really cool


zions!




























there is definitely a gorilla face in this mountain





i made many attempts at the "ghostly water" effect, but i failed on almost all of them since i didn't have a tripod or anything to sit my camer on :( but this one isn't too bad







a squirrel was getting food out of someone's backpack. right next to the "do not feed the wildlife" sign



i win at this one!











jason was nice enough to carry our bags for us. he looks cute :)



i thought it was funny how these flowers randomly grew out of some rocks
