VEGAS!

So this was exciting! Ed and I were able to steal away for a little time on our own! Now, I absolutely had my heart set on Staying at Caeaser's Palace or the Wynn, but when we got there, we found out (while trying to book)  that Caesar's pools were closed for renovation (a deal breaker) and the Wynn was almost entirely booked for some sort of computer conference, so we had to find a back up. Not knowing what else to do, we packed up the car and decided to wing it.

After touring the strip and checking prices, we eventually decided on Treasure Island.The hotel itself was beautiful inside and out, clean and the staff was so helpful!

On check-in they upgraded our suite to a penthouse deluxe suite! Ooh la la!  Our room was amazing and the views were just great! We were able to see the 'pirate show' from our room and the fireworks exlpoded just outside our windows!

The casino was par for the course in Vegas.

I found I have a sweet spot for the "Price is Right" slots! LOL Ed couldn't keep me away! All in All, we did well, we only lost about 10% of the money we'd brought to gamble with! We'd both been expecting to lose it all, so we feel like we came away winners! LOL

So, after Ed and I had adjusted to be childless for a few days we had a really great time!
We had an amazing dinner at "Envy", saw a great Cirque show and were able to spend some good ol' fashioned quality time together!
It's a trip I won't be forgetting for a LONG time!

This is my self portrait taken about 4:30am when Ed and I finally headed to bed after a fun night out! We'd just had the most amazing dinner and won some money in the casino! I was in my "happy zone"!!
