Sorry it's been so long. I've been trying to find time to put some pictures on this story but.... I never have time! So.....
In October we took a road trip to Las Vegas! It was Matt and I, my close friend Hannah and her boyfriend Adam, and our close friend Nikki. We've been friends since high school and still hang out. It was great. We left on Thursday October 1st after everyone got off of work, drove through the night and got there around 1 am. Hannah's collage friend bought a house down there so we were lucky enough to have a place to stay for free. We slept there that night and started our Vegas trip in the morning. Matt and I had never been there before so we were super excited to experience it, especially with my close friends.
Friday we stayed at a hotel on the strip. I forgot the name but was the one that looks like a big castle. We all pitched in on the room. Then went to lunch. On our way through the lobby Matt and I was stopped by a man that worked at the hotel and said " I want to hook you guys up with tickets to anything you guys want." I thought it was cool. Turns out they signed us up for a time share meeting and we had to go meet up with all the other suckers and they took us on a bus to a new hotel like ten miles from the strip. We were there for like four hours! They would not take no for an answer! It was HELL! So pretty much all of Friday was spent at that timeshare. But they gave us tickets to go see the sharks, for all five of us.
That night we got way drunk and went to a club in the next hotel. It was fun. I remember there was a moving walk way and on our way back to our room I was jumping on and off of it. It was going the other way that we were walking so I would run ahead of everyone jump over the wall and ride it back up to everyone. Then jump over the wall again to walk with my friends. I remember people looking at me like I was crazy, but I made my friends laugh. I had bruises everywhere the next day. :)
Friday we checked out of the hotel and went back to our friend's house. Friday was our exploring day. We went and saw the sharks. We went to the M&M factory. Matt, Nikki and I went to the top of the Iflar Tower (not sure how you spell it). We saw the water show outside the Bologeo (again spelling?) And we ran down the strip to catch the pirate show, but of course they canceled it. Then Nikki and I caught "THE THUNDER FROM DOWN UNDER". WOW, WOW, WOW! That's all I can say about that. I have pictures too! That ended our night.
Sunday we got up and left. Made to forever drive back to Salt Lake where we dropped Hannah and Adam off and picked up our kids and our car. It was the first time we ever went any where with out them. It was so nice being home with our family!
Wow, Wow, Wow, huh? That made me laugh.
