Las Vegas Trip!
Brandon and I spent the last four days in Las Vegas with friends. It was a blast! We flew out of SLC on Thursday morning very early, too early for me. When we arrived in Vegas, we checked into our hotel, Caeser's Palace, and hit the pool. Thursday night, we had dinner at the Bobby Flay resturaunt MESA. Dinner was delicious. Later, we went to the Cirque Du Soleil show "O." It was honestly AMAZING!
On Friday, we met up with more friends and spent the day shopping. All I can say is that I seriously wish that there was still a Nordstrom in Ogden. Friday night we went to the Excalibur to watch the dinner show "Tournament of Kings." Prior to the show we were messing around in the arcade. Brandon was having so much fun! He is a hilarious guy and always the life of the party. He won this HUGE stuffed horse while playing skee ball. I could not believe I was going to have to carry a massive horse around with us all night. We decided to give the horse away, and it brought the biggest smile to a little boy's face (I'm sure his parents were thrilled that they had to carry around a great big horse!). The dinner show was fun, and it was just really nice to be able to get away with friends.
We hit the outlet mall on Saturday. Brandon found a few (3!) pairs of shoes for his birthday, and I found a great pair of earrings. Saturday night we ate at my all-time favorite steakhouse, Smith & Wollensky. It was a very nice dinner; great food and great company.
Today, we walked through The Forum Shops at Caesar's Palace. In the "Field of Dreams" store, baseball great Pete Rose was signing autographs. Brandon and Bryce got to meet him, and I snapped a quick picture. Then, we headed home.
It was a great trip, and I genuinely enjoyed the time away. It was fun to spend quality time with Brandon and a few of our great friends!
