Vegas Vacation

WOW did we have some fun this time in Vegas! We got there Sunday morning at like 8:30. Originally we were not suppose to get there until around 3:30pm but a week before we left we changed the flight times so we could have a whole day on Sunday.
It was worth it bc we STILL didn't get to do everything we wanted to do!
Since we arrived so early we could not check in until 1pm. We left our bags with the hotel & went in search of FOOD :) We went over to Mandalay Bay to eat at House of Blues. After that we did some gambling there & then went back to our hotel to check in.

Us at House of Blues
After check in we just walked around the hotel to see where everything was and later on went to New York New York!

The wall of hands outside our hotel..
I had to touch Brucey's hands :) We had just missed him, Sylvester & Jason Stathem- they were there a couple weeks earlier for the premier of 'The Expendables'
The guys
Statue of Liberty made of Jelly Beans!
After NYNY we walked over to the Bellagio to see the fountains. I have been to Vegas 4 times prior and NEVER got to watch them. I was one happy camper!


Monday we went down to the Circus Circus area to play at SLOTS-A-FUN!!
We passed the Wynn & other hotels along the way..


SLOTS-A-FUN!! We sat at the Roulette table for an hour! 50 cent buy- ins LOL! I got in with 20 bucks and cashed out with $50!

That night we changed & then went to Harrah's Carnival Court. It was so much fun~in fact I think we had the best time there. Sat back and listened to the band play for a few hours.
The band~ the 'Spazmatics'
We met Edward on the way back :)

Tuesday we went over to the Palms Casino. . my picture of the hotel didn't turn out but all you have to do is imagine a tower with a big playboy bunny on it.. lol! Then we went to the Venetian/Palazzo to shop & gamble!

That night we went out for our nice dinner. We actually stayed in our hotel and went to the Strip House! Hehe, it was a fantasic steak house that was worth every penny. We got all dressed up and just had fun on our last night!

Me & Cammy
Poor Alex lost his money! The slots didn't like him & he didn't like them ;-)

I have to share.. I have NEVER had any nice sunglasses before. I think the most I have ever spent on a pair was $10.
So while me & cammy were shopping at the Venetian we spotted these beauties! I fell in love..and I still had birthday money left so I splurged :) We'll see how long they last!


Between the Vegas trip and the glasses~I had one GREAT birthday! Already can't wait to go back!
