Posing at Caesar's Palace, Las Vegas

This is a statue of Chipolisis, the greek goddess of gambling losers. Really. 

The Midas Touch (not) in Las Vegas

Well, we realized that the casino and hotel were so nice that they actually needed us to chip in a little to make it better. So we did. Yup, they must have been amazed to see us high fiving and kissing when we won...but overall they actually did take some of our money at the craps table. Dang it!! The good news is they want to comp us a room next time we go (yeah...they can't WAIT for us to come back :)
 

Inside the NYNY Hotel in Las Vegas

This place is amazing - they have Coney Island, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Statue of Liberty - almost like the real thing (which is pretty much what Vegas is, right?) Anyway, we had a VERY good time!
 

New York New York Rollercoaster in Las Vegas

Hey, when it's 113 degrees a little wind in your hair feels pretty good! This was a great steel coaster with cool views. Sweet!!
 

In Portland for Megan's Graduation

Family photo for Sue's clan - that's Mom on the left, then sister Kathy, neice Megan and me. Megan graduated with high honors from Centenial High School in Gresham, OR (smart AND beautiful). 

At the park with Christina and Madeline

Madeline was trying her best to wiggle into the water - she might be a swimmer, you never know! Christina (Mike's daughter) is relishing motherhood...but keeping up with two little ones is a lot of work! 

Father's Day in Portland

Here they are - that's Madeline on the left and Alana on the right. Although Madeline is still pretty bald, Alana is now growing some beautiful strawberry blond curls. And both have their Dad's blue eyes...cute, huh?

Grandpa just might be a little happy.
