Vegas

Kevin and I took a much needed vacation two weeks ago. It has been 4 years since the two of us took a vacation outside of the city. We have had a few little overnight get aways, but not any longer. My mom said that she would be willing to stay with the kids and we jumped on the the chance. We didn't have a ton of money so we thought that we would head to Vegas and take advantage of the cheap hotel rooms. That way we could stay for 3 nights for the same price as one anywhere else. We stayed at the Stratosphere and loved it. Our room was so nice, and the views were incredible.
It was so nice to get up when we wanted, go to eat whenever, stay up late, and take long naps all day. I didn't have to worry about not going somewhere at a certain time because it would interfere with a nap or a feeding. We aren't party people so all we did was sleep, eat, and read. SOOOOOOO peaceful.
We had lunch at the top of the Stratosphere. It was a very posh restaurant that gave you a view of the city from 106 floors up. The food was amazing. Our normal "nice" restaurants we go to are "Olive Garden" and "Chili's". So this was fun and new. We didn't know what we were eating, but it was good. The only downfall for me was that the restaurant would slowly spin so you could look at the whole city. It took over an hour to go all the way around. I forgot how motion sick I get. By the time the main course arrived I was so sick. The food was great and I would go again. We also found a wonderful Mexican restaurant, a fun 50's diner, and great B-B-Q at a Harley Davidson restaurant.
We were excited to come home and see the boys, but really enjoyed the time away.
