Vegas Style

This was my third time in Vegas for work and I have to say, there is a side to Vegas that is NICE and NORMAL!  Haha.  Who would think it?!  A few people cringe when they hear I’m off to vegas for a week, and I just smile.  We saw some AMAZING shows and dined at some INCREDIBLE restaurants.  We went up a few days before the conference actually started so we could enjoy some fun stuff before working all week.  I mean, how cool is my boss?!  I feel blessed. 

A few pics:

Standing in the lobby of our hotel.  They need to make hotel casinos that have WINDOWS!  No joke, by the end of the week I was DYING to get out of “the cave” of darkness and gambling, lol.

We ate lunch at this restaurant every day – it was the PERFECT spot!  We sat outside right across from the Bellagio and were treated to the fountain shows non-stop throughout our lunch.  It was in the 70s and GORGEOUS!  SUCH a treat from the snow storm we escaped just two days earlier in PA!

And, (PS.) for lunch EVERY DAY, I had a yummy salad with a glass of champagne with blueberries.  It was heaven.  I am now CERTAIN that champagne was made to accompany salads.  So crisp and refreshing!  And not to mention I felt like the classiest little lady, ever.  :o)

Little blue plumps of deliciousness.

All in all, it was a great trip! 

BUT, of course, my absolute favorite part of the whole week was finally being back home with this cutie…

They say that absence makes the heart grow stronger/fonder and I couldn’t agree more.  There is always an air of crazy-ness in Las Vegas that makes me long for the comfort of my man.  It was so much fun, but it didn’t compare to the feeling of coming home.

Happy Monday, Lovelies!

Blessings/XOXO

  14. I am going to Vegas next weekend for a concert. You may have seen the posters, I've heard they are plastered all over the city--311 Day. Then the week after I am going back to celebrate my mom's bday. Too bad I gave up all alcohol for Lent...the champagne sounds yummy!
