So, to sum up Vegas-- a city of gluttony. I saw so many children there with their families and I have absolutely no idea why anyone would expose their children to such a worldly place. Porn everywhere-- on the ground, shoved in our faces as we walked down the street, on the sides of vans and buses, hanging on the buildings. I have no desire to go ever go back. I feel like I need to cleanse myself inside and out now.
At one point, we passed a group of young teenage boys who were there as a sports team and they had their adult chaperones with them. A few of them had collected these pornography cards that were scattered all over the ground and being handed out by a ton of people on the street. They were laughing and giggling over them. Adam and I walked up to them and said, "Boys, you don't need that stuff. How would your mom feel if she knew you had those?" They stopped laughing immediately and turned their heads away and looked down in shame and then walked away. They knew what they were doing was wrong.
There were high points and we did have fun walking through all of the hotels and watching the freakshow foot traffic. We saw a whole lot of skin on this trip. It's good to be home.

well, I've always wondered about Vegas but after reading this I really have no desire to ever visit! Doesn't sound like everything it is hyped up to be! My favorite picture of you is where you're sniffing the wax person's chest and say...smells like a homewrecker! FUNNY!! I definitely wouldn't want to raise my kids in a place like that!!
Owen and I didn't care for Vegas either. But glad you had fun and could spread your good example to strangers :) Looked sunny and warm! Hurry up summer :) Also, Ruby and Evie skyped on Friday night and it was the cutest thing! Miss you guys :(
I have been to Vegas a few times and have never liked it!
