Paul and I decided to take a little vacation. Paul just finished school so we wanted to get out of town to take a break but not do anything too crazy due to a lack of funds and my ever so growing belly.
We decided to head down south to Lake Havasu and to the Grand Canyon . We knew nothing about Lake Havasu or what we would do there besides see London Bridge. When I was a kid I made a list of 100 things I wanted to do and for some bazaar reason that I no longer remember as to why that made the list. Paul has been helping me check off that list so that is where we ended up.
Lake Havasu is an interesting place and unless you love the Lake, own a boat or are over the age of 60 I don't really understand it's appeal although that didn't stop of us from having a great time.
Lake Havasu had a lot of small town shops and restaurants and a little Britain. We asked the front desk woman what we should do while there and she suggested that we take a ferry across the lake to a casino for dinner. it was a dinky place that was one story, had one restaurant and 3 tables. It was super funny. Paul played $5 after me begging him to which confirmed my belief that gambling is stupid and that I will never do it.
One of my favorite things about the trip is that we took out a paddle boat. And to make it even more perfect Paul was wearing his Captain Hammer t-shirt. It was pretty fun even though I felt bad that Paul paddled 90% of the time cause I am lazy. Another favorite thing was after much convincing, Paul did the water slide at our hotel. I don't know why but swimming and watching Paul fly down that slide was so fun.
But by far the best part of our time in Lake Havasu was one night after a long day Paul and I were laying in bed and he was able to feel the baby kick for the first time. It was cool to finally have him be able to experience that even if it was the tiniest kick in the world. It made everything feel even more real and made me so happy.
The next
day we slept in as we did the whole trip, had breakfast, then headed to the
Grand Canyon. I don't know how I live so close the Grand Canyon but have
never seen it. I was super excited and Paul was making fun of me and
telling me you could see it before you could hence my pouty face. 
Paul and I had a pre vacation night our on the town. We wanted to try something new cause we are sick of going to the same places to eat so we checked out East Coast Eats off of 215 and Valley Verde. It is a Boston joint and was really good. I got a lobster roll, Paul for a Boston roast beef and we shared bacon cheese tater tots. I loved my roll and the tater tots were good but I don' t know that I would get them again unless with a big group. It was great food for a decent price.
After finishing up dinner we headed to the new luxury movie theater in town. We saw Iron Man 3. The chairs were amazing and so comfortable. It isn't too much more than a normal theater so I might have to make it one of my hang outs this summer cause the hotter and bigger I get the more I think I will appreciate it. Iron Man was good and we thought they did a great job with it.
We then headed to The Cosmopolitan to see something epic, something we never thought we would have the chance to see again, somekind of wonderful..... The Postal Service. The Postal Service is a group that we both have loved and never got the chance to see. We were so excited when they announced that they were doing a 10 year anniversary tour. We had a little hiccup right before the show started but besides that it was AMAZING! They played all their songs and it was just so great.
