I am a HUGE fan of Las Vegas. I have been more times than I can count, and I LOVE it! For me, Vegas is a great holiday because it combines a little bit of everything that I love. Sun, Pool, Shopping, Food, and Entertainment. How can you go wrong with all of that?! So when it came time for Damian and I to decide how we wanted to celebrate our 30th Birthdays this year...a trip to Vegas was a no brainer! And we were thrilled when Cody & Brit, and Kellen and his friend Nina said they would come along to celebrate with us!
This was the first time we had left Sophia for any length of time...so a nice BIG drink before we got on the plane helped with my separation from my baby girl! ha!
Ahhh flying without a child! I forgot how blissful this is!!
Damian surprised me and upgraded our seats to the front business class on the plane!
Check out all that leg room!!
Damian having a little rest!
Um, yea...
We were slightly excited...can you tell?!
We finally landed in Vegas and met up with Cody and Brit who had already arrived earlier in the day.
They had had balloons delivered to our hotel room while we were out!
And they sang!! So fun!!
The next day we headed to the pool to wait for Kellen and Nina to arrive!
Pool side breakfast delivered right to my lap! Yes please!
My view for the day!
It was 40'C and the boys were sitting in a hot tub...WHY!?!
Strawberry Daiquiri for the win!
That night we headed to Fremont Street!
We had to take 2 cabs because all 6 of us couldn't fit in one!
Hello Cody!
The lights at Fremont Street!
We had dinner at this amazing seafood place in the Golden Nugget!
This GIANT aquarium was in the middle of the restaurant.
Love these people!
Me and my handsome holiday date!
As we were leaving Fremont Street we were looking for a van or vehicle that we could all fit into to avoid taking 2 cabs again. This random guy approached us and asked us if we wanted him to drive us around in his party bus for $60!! So the 6 of us had our own party bus for the evening!! It was fantastic!
Group shot back at the Bellagio!
The next day we decided to rent a pool cabana for the day!
We were served an AWESOME breakfast!
The boys playing cards!
It was nice to have a bit of shade because it was SO HOT!! Which I love!!
We left the pool and did some shopping!
And no shopping trip is complete without jello shots! #onlyinvegas
Me and my brothers! Too bad Kellen was sleeping...
That evening we headed to a small lounge at the new Mandarin Oriental Hotel!
This was the beautiful view!
Drinks and appies!
All of a sudden I was FREEZING!!
So everyone started putting the pillows on me! ha!
This was the view once the sun went down!
Kellen...eyes closed AGAIN!
And since we had such a GREAT time on the party bus the night before...we called our buddy up again! ha ha! So he drove us around again on this night!
Getting crazy on the party bus!
We ended up at the Wynn!
Weird boys...
Me and my hubby!
The next day we had all planned to do our own thing.
So Damian and I went to the spa for a couples massage!
Walking through the gardens at the Bellagio!
This was the 3rd time we had stayed there and we LOVE it!
Then we went and did some shopping!
I loved this on the wall in Kate Spade!!
And of course, no trip to Vegas is complete without a trip to Tom Ford for Damian.
I was pumped we were in the US for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!
After shopping we met up with everyone at the chocolate store in our hotel for some treats!
I got a MASSIVE ice cream cone!
It was SOOO good!!
Then we headed back up to our rooms to get ready for our last night in Vegas!
We had an amazing meal at 'Olives' in the Bellagio, and then made it outside to watch the fountain show for the last time!
The next morning we woke up, packed everything up and checked out of the hotel. We still had almost the whole day to spend so we did some more gambling and walked the strip a bit more.
We had to hit up the M&M store to get something for Sophia!
Then we had lunch at this AMAZING pizzeria!
This is our 'we don't want to leave Vegas, but we do miss Sophia' face! Ha!
And last but not least...my Target haul! lol
Because no trip to the USA is complete without going to Target!!
And that was Vegas!!
We had such an amazing time and made so many wonderful memories with our favourite people. We couldn't have asked for a better way to spend our 30th Birthdays!!
