Vegas Vacation

Happy New Year to you all! Hope you had a safe and fun holiday! Adam and I had a blast in Vegas over NYE. It was so nice to get away for a few days and enjoy some warmer temperatures. Vegas was absolutely PACKED with people while we were there - which was to be expected. We definitely didn't come home any richer - however we were up about $300 on our first night - must have been beginners luck! We did A LOT of walking around - both of our legs were sore the entire trip - maybe it helped keep some pounds off from our food and drinks! We met up with Ashley and Ryan one night and ate ate "Dicks Last Resort," where the waiters are purposefully rude to you and make you hats to wear with very inappropriate sayings! On New Years Eve we joined 300,000 other people on the strip and counted down the new year and watched the fireworks. We also ate at Toby Keith's "I Love This Bar." The food was delicious and drinks were served in a mason jar - just like the song! On our last night, we saw the "Blue Man Group" - it was awesome! We also walked around some more and saw a few free shows. We had planned on visiting Freemont Street - but there was so many people that we decided not to - traffic was terrible and it would've cost a fortune to take a taxi. We definitely want to go back when it's not as busy. Next time we want to see more shows, eat at fancier restaurants, and hit up a popular nightclub.

On our way to the airport - Adam is already ready to party!

Let's GO!!
