Viva Las Vegas!!!

What a trip! This is not the place for those who are looking for a nice relaxing vacation spot...this is for the crazy people!!! haha...it's the only place where staying up into the wee hours of the night, walking 10 miles a day, and gambling all your money away can be fun!!

We have been planning this trip for a year now to celebrate Ashley's birthday and we had so much fun together! As the saying goes, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas...but I'll give you a few highlights!

Day 1: Travis was gambling as soon as we got off the plane...

The birthday girl is ready to go!!!!

The crew in our suite at Polo Towers

We got our makeup done the first day for Ashley's b-day dinner at Diablos!

There are no words to describe our dear Vegas friend, Sonya....thank you for making our makeup experience a memorable one!

Day 2: Thunderstorm inside of the mall!!

Someone please explain these to me....

Making our way down the strip

Awesome bar outside of Harrah's- the bartenders do all kinds of tricks with the bottles and drinks and there was a band playing 80's music. Travis was asked to dance!

And then asked to come up on stage...see for yourself!

They named him "Dick" and gave him a chance to win the whole bar a shot...he did not get the trivia answer correct, but did get to do a little song and dance....

Our favorite bar in Vegas!!

The girls got a picture with the Chipendale Dancers...the guy on the left was telling Jeffrey he couldn't take pictures...

in front of the Mirage...one of my favorite hotels...ask Ashley about the amazing aquarium inside!!

Loving our eiffel tower and Paris drinks!

Day 3: On our final day, we went to some of the nicer hotels- the Venetian and the Wynn...here we are at a spot in front of the Venetian...how romantic!

The girls inside the Venetian

Ashley and Hope in the entrance to the Wynn...this place is AMAZING!!!

On our last night, we went all out and had dinner at a steakhouse called "nine" in the Palms. It was incredible food!! We hung out at the Palms casino for the rest of the night- it was the best people watching! We sat right in front of the entrance to the Playboy Club...very interesting to say the least.

Travis and I are already talking about what we want to do the next time we go to Vegas!! He wants to go visit the Grand Canyon and ride the "insanity" at the top of the Stratosphere. I want to see a show and spend my money shopping instead of gambling!! :)

Thanks Ashley for inviting us to your birthday party!!!!
