Las Vegas!!!!

I was so sad when our long awaited Las Vegas trip came to an end!!!!
We had so much fun and it was so nice to spend time just me and Scott.
Everyone has asked us what all we did on our trip and the truth is.....
we slept a lot; we ate a lot.
Sounds boring, but really it was amazing!!!

The one down side to the vacation was the HEAT!
When we arrived Thursday afternoon it was 120 degrees.
I really don't know how people can live there year around.

We stayed at the Trump hotel and it was super reasonable (because it wasn't right on the strip) and it was super nice! I would definitely recommend it.
I loved 2 things about the hotel.
It did not have a casino (yea, no smoke)
and Vallet parking was included in the price.
It was actually pretty funny because we drove my corolla and it looked pretty silly parked next to the Hummers, Mercedes and other amazing cars. I am sure that that vallet guys couldn't wait to drive our car :)

The first night we went out to this amazing Japanese
restaurant in Caesars Palace.
Over the past couple years I have become obsessed with Sushi and I was not at all disappointed.



The picture above was taken at a breakfast buffet at the Wynn.
The concert was also there in one of their theaters.

As for Garth Brooks.....
he was fantastic!!!!


We got 2 1/2 hours of nothing but him and his guitar.
Even with out his band he sounded exactly as he does on his CDs.
I was so surprised when he first came out,
his wardrobe consisted of jeans, work boots, a hoodie and a baseball hat.
I honestly thought that it was a joke for a minute.
One of the highlights of the concert was when Trisha Yearwood came out and sang a couple of songs with him. He also took requests which was so cool!
It was by far the best concert ever!!!


The gardens at the Belagio


My favorite thing about Las Vegas is the Frozen Hot Chocolates at Serendipity.
When it is 110 degrees plus.... nothing taste better!
