Las Vegas Baby!!

It was a much needed break away. Some of the guys from Sandy Fire plan a trip to Vegas every year with their wives. This year we joined the crew! We went to Las Vegas Sunday morning, and came home Tuesday afternoon. We got a great deal and stayed at the Excalibur!! The kids thought it was fun that we stayed in a castle.

Our first night there we went to see the BLUE MAN GROUP! We got a picture with an actual Blue Man who came out after the show, but it didn't turn out on my camera, so I'm waiting for my friend to get me her copies of the pictures. It was a fun show, very entertaining.

The next day was spent wandering the strip, wandering through the casino's (we're not much for gambling), and of course we took a trip to the Stratosphere. This is a picture Jon took from the top. He and some friend decided to ride one of the rides at the top. Definitely NOT for me!! :)

The second night we were able to get some discounted tickets and we went and saw Mystère (Cirque du Soleil). It is the longest running of all the Cirque du Soleil shows in Vegas. It was very entertaining and I LOVED IT!! It would even be fun and appropriate for the whole family!! So much fun!!

Here is Whitney and I after getting our "drink on"... you can see how distorted things can get with your beer goggles! Ha Ha!! She and her husband Shad are so cute and fun. It was great getting to know more of the guys that Jon works with. (and their wives)

You'll be happy to know that even though we "Partied like Rock Stars"... we woke up the next morning with no tigers or chickens or baby Carlos...and all of our friends were accounted for!! (The Hangover, for all those who are wondering what in the world I am talking about...)

Thanks to all the Sandy Fire people for making this a fun and memorable getaway!!
