Thank Heaven's For Grandma's!!!

We just had my Mom come down to stay with the kids so, Boomer and I could go for our FIRST vacation alone!!




We went to Vegas for the weekend. We stayed at the Mandalay Bay in a suite... very nice!!


Our Hotel...


The room...suite!!


The couch was so fun, it was square...very unique, I want one in RED!!


I have to admit, I loved the TV in the bathroom!!







It was so nice and relaxing!! Did you know that you can get ready all at the same time when you don't have kids...that you actually can get out of the shower (yes, I said SHOWER, that is impressive in itself) and do your hair all before it drys and you are out of luck...and you can actually hold hands in public..you have 2 free ones, why not!! Boomer won this trip through his work, so they paid for golfing for two days, which meant I got to sleep in (that sadly was hard to do, so I actually got to sit in bed and watch TV...not DISNEY and eat Krispy Kreme doughnuts) and shop..YIPEE!! The first day we spent walking and walking and walking the entire strip, oh my goodness, we were tired!! Pictures from our walking....


M & M Factory (All Rylee wanted us to bring her home was M & M's and smarties (she ran out of the stash her Uncle Fred gave her))


Nice Lamborghini....


This was our stopping point the waterfall at the Wynn hotel.....after we went to the Margarittaville to eat..Jimmy Buffet's place, very yummy!! Notice it was light when we left for our walk!!











It was fun just to site see and stroll along the Vegas strip!! We also got sent to dinner to a REALLY nice resturant called Smith & Wollensky, absolutly amazing food, it's right on the strip...filet mignon, salad, mashed potates and 3 different creme brulee (chocolate, pistachio, marshmellow) YUMMY!! They give your menu in a frame....pretty cool!!



















We rode the New York rollercoaster the last night we were there 2 times about 11:00 at night, after eating sushi can you say "PUKEY FEELING" oh, I was done for the night after that, uuggghhh!!




We came home to a very happy and spoiled household of girls!! Grandma lived up to her name...she was amazing!! Thank you, thank you, MOM for the memories!!










Thank you, DAD for our cute new outifts!! That was very sweet of you to offer (hee-hee)!! We called and told him after we got the outfits he wanted to buy them for us, he agreed that was something that he would have done.....love you!!
