I had a fantastic weekend with my friends Kara and Becky in Las Vegas this past weekend. Becky has a long time friend who owns a wedding planning business and he was so generous and got us a free room and some pretty awesome perks! We stayed at the Aria Hotel and Casino which is located very close to the Bellagio. We were picked up from the airport by a limo and taken to the hotel to find out we were going to be staying in a penthouse suite. We were so shocked and never dreamed the room we would be staying in would be so amazing. It had a living room, dinning room, kitchenette, two bedrooms and three bathrooms. He also set it up and we were given free limo service throughout our stay. Not bad for three stay at home mom's. lol. We were only there for two nights, but we really stated to get use to the "celebrity" treatment :-)
We did a lot of walking around and enjoyed seeing all the different casino's. We watched the Bellagio fountains and also took a ride up in the Eiffel tower which has an amazing view of the Strip and the mountains. We did a little gambling and had a really fun and late night out Friday. Saturday night we went out and had a nice steak dinner and then headed over to have drinks at the ice bar called Minus 5. We had to wear parkas, boots and gloves and the cocktail glasses were also made of ice.
The weekend of course went by really fast but it was so much fun spending time with two great friends! I was really happy to get back Sunday night and see Justin, Jack and Peyton. I think everyone was happy to have me back home... I am not sure which one of them missed me more :-), but I know the kids had a great weekend getting some quality daddy time.
I am going to start packing again very soon because we are leaving Friday and flying back to St. Louis to visit see our family and friends. I hope everyone had a great weekend and I will post again next week.
oooh....you look so pretty!
