Viva Las Vegas!

Last weekend, Annette and I had a bachelorette party for a friend to attend...and it just so happens, the party was in Vegas! I talked Andy into going along for the ride and we had THE best time! The food was amazing, the sights were brilliant and the company was so very good for my soul. Memories were made and experiences will be remembered!


Here are a few pics (ahem...if I had loaded anymore I would have crashed Blogger)...enjoy!


At the airport, ready to fly to Vegas... somehow the waitress guessed where we were headed?! :)




View from the plane~






Checked into our hotel, New York New York and just met Vinny "the man" who, evidently was to make sure our stay was enjoyable. And it was!



First stop at the bachelorette party, Diablos~ hands down, best Mexican and marg's I've ever had!








Our casino at night~






















Beautiful Irish bar, 9 Fine Irishmen~




I was determined to win big! Um...not so much.




On the strip~







Ever seen Pawn Stars? We stopped at the actual pawn shop, very cool!




Headed into the desert~





Vegas isn't just gambling and shows! Amazing nature sight, Valley of the Fire~










It ain't a Vegas trip without a stop at the famous:



Elvis!



Andy's highlight of the trip: a monkey in a wheel chair. Yes. You read that right.






MY highlight of the trip: gospel brunch at House of Blues! Who knew you could go to Vegas and still go to church?! Amazing food, amazing performers, amazing sermon.


And their version of Amazing Grace brought goosebumps.













Last night in Vegas, enjoying wonderful food at an Italian restaurant before the Zumanity show~




One of my faves, bruschetta and fried zuchini~


Here's to next year's trip! Uh wait, we did say every year, right?! :)
