Vegas Baby!

Last weekend Ray and I spent 5 days in Vegas, with NO kids! It was bliss. We vowed to have a different trip to Vegas than last time. Last time, it was a short stay, with an agenda, no car, and little money. This trip was much different and fun indeed!

After an 8 hour drive on Thursday, we checked into our hotel and set out on the strip. After a short stop at Caesars Palace, we landed ourselves at Margaritaville to tackle their BIG margarita. Not too long after that a live band joined in, the night was great!



Friday was followed by more sight seeing and walking the strip. I also managed to get some retail therapy in as well. What girl doesn't love that?



Saturday was my little sisters BIG day! This was the day she would marry her high school sweetheart. She looked absolutely beautiful. We had so much fun at her wedding. The food was great, the venue was beautiful, and we stayed entertained. An all inclusive wedding is definitely the way to go.





Sunday we took a drive to see the pawn shop from the TV show (on the history channel) Pawn Stars. We got a chance to see many things featured on the TV show. Also, many collectors items, things that we probably would not have seen otherwise. It was cool! Later that night, we had dinner with my sister and her new husband. Followed by more Vegas strip drinking and gambling.





Up until the last night we were up by $200 but, I got greedy and lost it all on the last night. Oh well! We had a fantastic time on our vacation, did a lot of things that who knows when we will get to them again. I wouldn't change anything about it. Lots of drinking, walking, and laughing. I can't wait to do it again. Who knows when that will be!? For now, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!
