Vegas Vacation

So, I was so lucky to be able to take a little vacation this past weekend!  About a week ago I was driving to work and thought how much fun it would be to take a vacation.  Sometime you can find cheap plane tickets to vegas from wichita so I was thinking that would be so much fun….if i could find something cheap enough.  The next day i thought I would at least look at what tickets were going for.  I couldn’t believe it….i found the perfect price on the perfect day for the perfect amount of time!!!  I found tickets for $60 round trip….i was so excited i went to talk with jason about going…..he said that he wouldn’t be able to take off work so we wouldn’t be able to go.  Later that night he told me that i could go by myself if i wanted to; we have family and friends there so i wouldn’t be all by myself.  The next day i looked at the prices and guess what…..they changed…to be more expensive!!!!  All I could think was “vacation baby!!!”

When I got into Vegas my parents picked me up at the airport then we had an hour or two to kill untill my aunt Carol got home from work to eat dinner.  My parents took me to Sunset Park where we chatted and caught up.  It was a beautiful park and I had a new camera to try out so I took a few pictures.  Most of the trip we visited with family…it was good to see everyone.  On Sunday we were able to go visit the hoover dam.  It was very impressive.

The last day of my vacation I was able to visit one of my best good friends Erica!! I hadn’t seen her for over three years wich had been way to long.  The last time I saw her she was ready to start student teaching in vegas….now she is married, and has the cutes little baby!!  I was so happy to see her and catch up, talk about old times.  We also went swimming and took a bike ride later that night.  All I have to say is that I loved her bike!!!  One day I told my husband…”I don’t covett what you have, I want one of my own!!!”  that is how it was with Erica’s bike….I want one! :)
