Best Surprise Ever!

Well on Friday Mark surprised me with a weekend trip to Las Vegas!!!!! I was so excited! We left in the afternoon and 6 hours later (after taking a few wrong highways lol) we arrived! We put our stuff in our room and took off to the strip. There are some crazy street acts that are always fun to watch. There was a guy that makes paintings from spray paint. He used tissues, construction paper, spray paint and a few other things to make these awesome pieces of art! I'll post a picture of one below.

The next day we spent a lot of time gambling. We gambled a bit and cruised the entire strip! That's a lot of walking if you didn't know. We had lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe. Not the best food we had there but they had a lot of cool stuff to look at. My legs were extremely sore by the early evening. So we went back to the room to eat and relax a bit.

After the sun went down we took off to the MGM Grand to see a David Copperfield show. It was amazing! He did lots of illusions that are just so....... Crazy!!! He made a car appear on stage out of nowhere! At the end he took 12 audience members that were chosen by beach balls bouncing around in the crowd. He put them on a platform on the stage and lifted it in the air. He then covered it and when he pulled off the sheet everyone was gone! Amazing is the only word for it. After the show I had the urge to play my favorite game wizard of oz. I put in a $20 bill and left with $150 after an hour!!!! I had some awesome bonuses.

When we got back to the room around 3am we went straight to bed!! My legs and feet were barking to say the least. Mark had a big blister on his pinky toe to so he was in pain as well. All in all we broke even with our gambling money and to me that's winning! We had a lot of fun. We headed back home in the morning after a little visit to the famous pawn shop (if you watch pawn stars on tv, its that one). Now we are watching the cardinals/giants game! Go cards!!!!

Hope all of you had an equally good weekend!

My cycle should be starting in the next week!!
