Vegas Getaway 2010

We just returned from our Vegas getaway relaxed, refreshed, tan, and excited to see more sun here, but with slightly cooler temperatures. With temperatures between 105-110 over the weekend, Vegas was quite steamy, but luckily the heat is one of the main things we were after. This allowed us time to sunbathe, relax, and catch up on books that we don't have much time for back at home while sitting out in the sun.

Here are a few highlights from our trip:
  • Nonstop laughing during the live Daniel Tosh show at the Mirage
  • Enjoying the MGM pool for most of the day on Saturday
  • Cooling off at the pool with a delicious 32-oz strawberry daiquiri
  • Corey and Jason polishing off two buckets of beer, and then building a beer bottle pyramid (this kept them entertained for quite sometime)
  • Eating at yummy restaurants like Todd English PUB, Diego and Pearl
  • Gambling (even though we had horrible luck)
  • The debut of the red sequin fanny pack Corey bought be as a joke when we first started dating --- it's only been out in public during the Dollar Dance at Nick and Gina's wedding, but I figured Vegas would be an appropriate place to wear it myself for the first time
  • Riding the Link Light Rail for the first time - it was recently completed so we parked at Corey's work, walked two short blocks, hopped on the Link and rode all the way to the airport. So convenient, quick and cheap!
  • Having tons of fun with the Reeders. It's been a busy few months and we hadn't been able to spend much time with them lately, let alone spent an entire weekend, so we were thrilled to have the opportunity to join them on this great getaway.
