Weekend in Vegas!

Last weekend Dustin got tickets to General Conference in Salt Lake and that is where we were headed after work Friday. We were all going except Teisha because she had college classes on Saturday. When I got home from work no one seemed to thrilled to be making the 4 hr drive to Salt Lake, including me! Tianna had a last minute big school project due Monday, Jayson had been traveling for work the past 2 weeks and was tired of driving and that was Dustin's last weekend home and he wasn't real excited to be gone until late Sunday night. Jayson said cancel our room reservations and just you and me are going to Vegas. It didn't take much convincing and I was on the phone changing plans. Jayson had been wanting just the two of us to go to Vegas for months. It just happened to be 24 years on Sunday since our first kiss and so we decided to celebrate! Any excuse to celebrate and I always like Vegas! We got a suite at the Venetian and it was so nice. Jayson loved the big couch. We ate at my two favorite places, PF Changs and Cheesecake Factory. We walked the strip all day Saturday and shopped and Saturday night we went to Phantom of the Opera! It was really good! Jayson loved it! Sunday morning we just hung out and headed home Sunday afternoon. We don't go on many get aways just the 2 of us and it was so fun. We were ready to go back again this weekend! We left the kids home with Dustin in charge and it was nice not to have to worry. We are already talking about our next get away and decided we need to do that more oftern!

I love the palm trees and rock formations in front of the Mirage!

Wax museum with Michael!
