Vegas Day 4

Saturday March 31 was our last full day in Vegas. We went to the Flamingo to enjoy our last buffet on the 24 hour buffet pass we had. The buffet had a whole room full of desserts, including cotton candy! I felt like I was 5 years old again, I was so excited for that cotton candy! After lunch, we walked around the Strip for awhile and then went back to our hotel to lounge at the pool. For dinner, we went to RA Sushi Bar and ate WAY too much sushi and had a couple of yummy fish bowl drinks. I was very proud of Jeremy, he actually tried seared tuna! He hates seafood, which really sucks for me since I could pretty much live on it! After dinner, we went back to our hotel and got ready to go to PURE nightclub at Casear's Palace. Dev was there promoting her new album and even put on a free concert. Christina and I had a blast seeing as we got free vodka drinks until midnight! The boys were a little tired and knew that we had to get up early and make the long drive home the next day, so they decided to go back to the hotel. Christina and I weren't ready for our fun time in Vegas to end, so we decided to walk around and see where the night took us. We ended up meeting a lot of really cool people and stopped at many different hotels for a drink. We were having so much fun, we didn't even realize it was almost 5 AM. The whole vacation was a blast, but I think Christina and I's adventurous late night trip is something I will never forget!

Mmmm.... Cotton Candy!!! 

 Love my Lil C!!! 

This drink was DELICIOUS!!! 

Yummy sushi! Sadly, this wasn't even half of our food

I think it's safe to say I had the best 30th birthday party ever!!! Whatever 30 has to bring, I am ready for it! 30 is the new 20 right?!? 

Vegas Day 3

After staying out dancing until 3 AM, I was surprised that all four of us were dressed and ready to go to lunch at 11:00 AM. Randy, Christina, Jeremy and I shared a room and four people trying to get ready in one small hotel room can be pretty time consuming. We decided to go to Paris and do the 24 hour buffet for $45. You can't beat your choice of 4 buffets for 24 hours for $45! While we were eating lunch, Jeremy got a text saying that Little Big Town (my favorite band) was signing autographs at Serendipity 3. So, we headed over there as soon as we got done eating. Unfortunately, we were too late for the signing. But... I did get a picture with Phillip and I got to talk to Kim. Luckily, I already have a ticket and a t-shirt with their signatures. I've seen them in concert 5 times, I think you could say I'm a little obsessed with them.

That afternoon, we put on our bathing suits, made some drinks and headed for the pool. Before we even walked in, the lifeguard told us we couldn't bring any outside food or drinks in. Since the pool was closing in an hour anyway, we just decided to go back to our hotel room and get ready to go out that evening. Christina and I weren't too happy with our outfits for the evening, so we decided to head to Miracle Mile and do a little shopping at H&M. We both found shirts we were happy with and changed into them while we were there. We hit up another buffet for dinner and then stopped for Irish Car Bombs on the way back to the hotel. We stayed in that night and just relaxed in our hotel room. All in all, it was a very good day!

You don't know this dance move? The drunk dying bug will be all the rage before you know it! 

Is it obvious that Christina and I like to take pictures? As I said in the last post Vegas Day 2,  best sister-in-law in the world!!!

Vegas Day 2

We got up pretty early and went for breakfast at Harrah's buffet with Brandy & Heath. After breakfast, we walked around the Venetian and Fashion Show mall. We decided to stop for an afternoon drink (ok, it was really only noon, but it's vacation right?!?) at StripBurger. Then we met up with Jorge, Lacey and Eric to do a little more walking around. Around 3:30 PM, Randy & Christina (brother-in-law and sister-in-law) text us to let us know they were almost there, so Jeremy and I headed back to our hotel to meet them. While we were waiting, we decided to play a little blackjack (the only gambling we did) and I won $15! You would've thought I won $1,000. I was so excited! Randy and Christina got there and then the party really started! The four of us have so much fun together! Jeremy and Randy are brothers and best friends. And I just have to say, I have the best sister-in-law in the world! We had Chipotle for dinner and then went to Rockhouse where ladies drink free until 12:00 AM on Thursdays! After Rockhouse, we went to Carnaval court and danced the night away!!! BEST BIRTHDAY PARTY EVER!!!

We survived day 2 of Vegas! And the adventure continued...

  

Vegas Day 1

Last Wednesday... March 28th... My 30th birthday!!! We packed up the car and headed to Las Vegas. We met our friends Jorge, Lacey and Eric at a gas station at 5:30 AM and started the 9 hour drive. The drive was pretty long and uneventful, but so worth it once we got there. After getting to our hotel and checking in, our friends Brandy & Heath, who flew in from Georgia, came to our hotel to get the party started. Heath is a big beer freak, so we decided to go to Sin City Brewery at the Flamingo. Jorge, Lacey and Eric met us there and we split a couple pitchers. As we were sitting there drinking, a couple girls came up and invited us to a Jim Beam party at the pool outside with free drinks and appetizers. It was a BLAST!!! One of the best parts of the whole trip. After that, we still hadn't had dinner, so we decided to go to Margaritaville. Brandy and I split the lobster and crab mac & cheese. It was oh-so delicious! Since our brother-in-law and sister-in-law were coming in the next day, we decided to head to bed at a decent time to rest up for the real party on Thursday. Day 1 of Vegas was definitely a success! Stay tuned for days 2, 3 and 4!!!

Dirty 30 balloon hat! Yes, I'd had a few adult beverages at this point. 

Goodbye 20's, Hello 30... and VEGAS!!!

I have no idea what happened to the context of this post! I guess that's what I get for trying to blog while riding in the car. Anyway... I will be posting pictures from our Vegas trip sometime this week.
