I just came home from the funnest girls tip with my mom and sisters! We went to Las Vegas to see the Donny & Marie Show! We stayed at Caesars Palace, ate amazing food {My favorite were the crab legs & crepes} and did a lot of shopping! Believe it or not, we actually had a missionary experience as well {The blurry picture is of my sister Ashley talking to this guy who was totally talking about Utah like it was this horrible state-don't worry, the McKell girls set him straight!} Amongst the smoke, and evil things all around the strip, we actually had an amazing Sunday morning where we each shared a story out of the church magazines and had a great spiritual uplifting! We even felt like movie stars when we got our pictures taken at a makeup runway show! Our hotel had these wax people that looked so real, so of course we had a picture with them! We had a wonderful time and I cannot wait for our next Girls Trip! Regan was awesome to be the Mr. Mom for a weekend! He actually admitted that it was hard to manage the kids, keep the house clean and not have Riley just play the wii all day!!! Thank you very much!

Fun Girls Trip!
The Bellagio
Donny & Marie
On the 2nd night in Las Vegas, we all went to the cleanest show on the strip...
The Donny & Marie Show! It was so good and as my sister said, surprisingly entertaining! We were the youngest ones in the show by far, and it was so much fun to see these 2 Utah Performers put on a wonderful show! Donny sweats so much and Marie was wearing some outfits she probably shouldn't have worn, but other than those, I would recommend it to anyone!
Beauty & Shopping
What does every Girls trip need? A beauty night and a lot of shopping! We did both very well on this trip! the first night we got settled into our awesome hotel room at Caesars Palace. I brought my foot bath and did pedicures and massages on everyone. We all put mud masks on! The mud dried so hard that we couldn't even move our faces! The next 2 days were full of shopping! I found my new Favorite store {and I am safe to say Favorite because we don't have it in Utah so I cannot be tempted!} H&M is the coolest store ever! I can say that for certainty because we went back 5 times!!! I got some cute outfits and had so much fun shopping with all of the girls {and no kids!!}
As we were shopping, we were looking at this booth that said, "Eyebrow Threading!" This lady from India comes out and tells us that we have to try it! What is it you ask? I guess it is very popular in India-it is where they take Thread and pluck your eyebrows with it! So wierd, I know! So what better people to try it out than my 2 little sisters! They were brave and tried this wierd Eyebrow Threading Trend and surprisingly, it looked SO good on them!
Paris
We went to the Paris hotel to eat some delicious crepes for breakfast! I tried my new camera out on this trip for some practice-the eiffel tower was a great structure to practice on! Crepes made right in front of you are the BEST! I was a little disapointed in Ashley though. Last time we ate at the Paris when we came to see Celine Dion in 2005, she ate 6 huge crepes! This trip, she could only muster the strength to eat 1!
