M&M World

Today we drove into Las Vegas so we could surprise Bekah with M&M World. She is addicted to M&M’s just like I am addicted to Reese’s White Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups. Mom doesn’t buy them for me very often so you can send them to me and it would be really great. We wouldn’t tell her where we were going but she knew it was a surprise especially for her. You should have seen her face when she saw the giant M&M’s! She was so surprised and happy at the same time. We went inside and immediately found smashed pennies so we got some. It turns out that M&M World is a four story tall store that sells anything and everything M&M. They M&M dispensers by the dozens, a soccer ball that Natey needed, pins, keychains, sweatshirts, pants, cups, you name it and they have it! They even had M&M figurines. There was even the M&M racecar. It wasn’t for sale but we got to look inside and take pictures. Nate went nuts over that one! On the second floor was an entire section of M&M’s you could buy by the pound. They were all seperated by color. They had colors there I didn’t even know you could get M’s in. Did you know they make hot pink m’s?!?! On the third floor was an exhibit that was a make believe factory so you could see how there are made. There is also a movie theater but we didn’t stay for that. It was a ten minute wait and we wanted to get going. Papa got us all awesome souvineers. I picked out a green monkey wearing an M&M shirt to hang on my bed with the rest of my collection. We stopped for dinner at another casino a little way down the road. By then Mom and Papa realized there was something wrong with the car. We were so close to California!!! They spent a long time looking at the engine before Papa decided it was safe to drive home. We watched Master of Disguise and fell asleep, which I rarely do. Las Vegas was fun but it was SOOOO hot. The thermometer read 110, which is the hottest it has been on this vacation. I hope it gets cooler. Mom woke us up when we arrived. It was really early in the morning so she let us sleep on Papa’s couch. We are in California at last!
