Trip to Vegas

Kevin had a work conference in Las Vegas and so we got to go together and have a little trip away. It was such a nice time.  He had to go to workshops during the day but we had the evenings to be together and we also had one day at the end together as well. 

 The first night we were there we walked almost the whole way down the strip looking for a place to eat. We ended up eating at a pizza place and then going to Ghiradelli for a treat. It was actually a good thing that we had so far to walk back so that we could walk off all that food. We aren't that good at taking selfies but we also don't like asking people to take pictures and we just wanted to have some pictures of us together.

 It was fun to walk past the Bellagio on the way back and see the fountains. They really are very amazing in person.

The first couple of days it was pretty nice there even though it was March.  It was in the 80's so that was nice. We were able to go and relax by the pool and hang out together. I didn't have a good book so I bought one at the store but  I was being cheap and didn't want to spend too much so it ended up being only so-so . It was nice to relax though. 

The second night we went to a nice dinner compliments of one of the companies Kevin works with. It was a fancy steak place so that was cool. It was down in the really old part of the strip which I had never been to. There is a street down there called  Street and it is completely indoors. The concept is really cool but its honestly terrible. There are a bunch of wack jobs there and people dressed in crazy stuff or no stuff. The smoke is out of control and everyone seems to be high or drunk. It just had the worst feeling there.  I honestly don't understand why people think it is fun to take kids to Vegas. I wouldn't take my kids to Vegas. There is way too much garbage all around that I don't want them seeing.  After that we went back and it was pretty late but people in the group wanted to stay up so we went to Top Golf.  It was my first time and even tough it was like one in it morning it ended up being really fun!  We had such a good time. Even though I was SO bad at it.

 One the last day together we went to Cafe Rio and then went on another long walk around the Strip. We went to the Bellagio and saw the gardens which were really amazing. Then we walked over to Caesars Palace to the mall but quickly realized there just aren't any shops that we would actually shop at there. Haha!

We really wanted to go to a show that night but we just couldn't pull the trigger on the cost.  We are really cheap and at first some friends told us they would give us free tickets but then that didn't pan out and the thought of paying that much was too hard to do. We did go and see the aquarium at Mandalay Bay but it was a little disappointing after going to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. But it still was fun to be together, because seriously I can do nothing but if it is with Kevin then that's all I need. I really love being with this guy! He is the BEST!!
