Chinese New Year in Vegas

This year Jacob had Chinese New year off. Not because it was a holiday or even because he asked for the day off. Work has been slow lately. With that said, we decided to use the day to our advantage.... Namely... go celebrate Chinese New Year. We started out at the Forum Shops at Caesar's Palace where we saw a presentation given my Meadow's School and the Mayor and his wife were there. The current mayors wife has announced her bid for Las Vegas mayor... here she is below.


Here is Kira, she really enjoyed it when the kids sang songs. They told us all kinds of things about the Chinese New Year celebration and all the people born in the year of the Rabbit... the only two I can remember are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. (Only cause I thought it was a weird coincidence)


After Caesar's we jumped in the car and drove to the Pallazo where they had a HUGE, and i mean HUGE bunny in the lobby near the bottom at the Shoppes. I'm pretty sure the pictures didn't turn out because we don't have one (Jacob's camera is dying a slow death and has become quite stubborn)
Below is a picture of us at the Encore, where their little garden was all done up for Chinese New Year.

One of my favorite things about Las Vegas is all the cool stuff you can check out for free. Other than gas this family day cost us nothing and we had SO much fun!!! So Happy (late) Chinese New Year. We have great hopes for our New Year and hope you do too!!!
