Viva Las Vegas



Thanks to Emily, Tiffany and a bunch of Aussies, I really could not have asked for a better 21st birthday. It seems as if I have the most fun when I am with my family so I was so excited to be in Sin City with two of the best cousins anyone could ever ask for.
Saturday evening we went to dinner at a crepe place in Paris and it was delicious. That was pretty much the highlight of that night seeing as we were all exhausted, we got back to the hotel and were all in our beds probably by 10:00.
Sunday came around all too fast and Emily's friend from college picked us up and took us to church with her. We did go to all 3 hours of church which was one of Tiffany's rules for the weekend. That night we had dinner reservations at Canaletto at the Venetian which was the best meal I had had in a long time. We concluded our Sunday evening with the fountains at the Bellagio which are fantastic and worth the trip in and of itself.
We met Monday bright and early and made our way down to the breakfast buffet at our hotel. The food was just ok but Emily and I ate a ton. When Tiffany came back with her last plate, Emily and I had sunk down in our chairs each with a bowl of frozen yogurt with sprinkles. We walked off our breakfast though by making our way down the strip to the MGM Grand to see the lions which was one of my favorite parts of the trip. We spent the rest of the afternoon at Caesars palace shopping and where we ran into a club promoter for Jet Night Club who put us on the guest list for the Diesel Preconvention Party. We also ran into Leland from Dog the Bounty Hunter. We had dinner at the Bellagio Buffet and again I ate a ton there as well. I had crab legs, ahi tuna, sushi...I ate so much I can't even really remember what I ate. We then met up with our Aussie friends which proved to be a lot of fun and then ran to Jet to see T-Pain perform. It was a busy night. My feet still hurt from wearing Tiffany's gold shoes but it was all worth it.
I had such a great time and the only thing that could have made the trip better would have been to have Erika there with us. Thanks again to Tiffany and Emily though for sacrificing their time to meet me in Las Vegas. Hopefully there will be another trip really soon.

How fun! I love the crepe shop in Paris. Delicious. Happy Belated Birthday! Your card should arrive soon. I can't believe I forget to put your unit name in the address.
