Sometimes being a teacher has its perks, on top of the very obvious ones such as no Holidays, summers off, great hours, etc! This evening we enjoyed one of those hidden benefits! We took Lincoln to the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay for free! That's right other than the gas to get us there, it was free!! Basically, because I am a teacher I get free admission for myself plus one guest! But you are probably wondering how it was free considering there were two others beside myself. Well, as luck would have it, Children under 5 are FREE too! So we all got in for free! It was awesome! And even better was the fact it was nearly empty so Lincoln could run around without us having to worry about losing him in the crowd!
After seeing our fill of fish and sharks, we decided that it might be fun to take Lincoln to the Rainforest cafe, since we were already downtown. And I think he loved it!! What was even cooler is we happened to stop by a small kiosk in the store area to find out exactly how to get to the restaurant and were given a coupon for the Cafe. It was a coupon for a free kids meal and priority seating as well. We did not realize how awesome this coupon was until arriving at the Cafe and being escorted to a special line, only one family in front of us, which bypassed what looked to be at least a 30 minute wait in the regular line. And then to make the deal even sweeter we got Lincoln's meal free and considering they would have charged us $10 for it regularly we thought we had struck gold!! So our night was full of hidden bonuses! And it was so much fun on top of it all! I love spending time with my boys!

New posts! Yay! Stace! Lincoln is is getting so big. I mean, his looks are actually CHANGING to big boy looks! When did that happen? Holy cow! I bet Kristin's wedding was amazing! I'm glad I got to get a little peek of it in that picture of Lincoln eating a cake pop! Glad you guys are doing well (despite the craziness of life).
