Quick Vegas Getaway

I went from this

to this in just a short few days

My mom and some of her buddies were headed to Vegas for a couple of days and my aunt Barbara invited me. They had a 2 bedroom suite with my mom so she and I would share a bed. Trever had recently left on a guys golfing weekend trip to Mesquite, so it was my turn. Somehow it all worked out and I was able to go.
I flew down Monday morning we checked into our gorgeous suite at the MGM. Then went to check out Hoover Dam and the new bridge. When we were there last year on our way to Disneyland it wasn't quite connected yet, it was amazing to see if all together. No wonder those engineers make so much money. My mom had not been there since her honeymoon... 33ish years ago! It was fun to be there with her.

We got back to the hotel and gambled gambled gambled, then I met up with Serene and Ajay my neighbors it was a pure coincidence we were there at the same time, and gambled more with them.
Tuesday we gambled, shopped, checked out the newest hotel cosmopolitan, hung out pool side (very nice knowing it was a blizzard at home), gambled, then went and saw Le Reve at the Winn. So amazing what some humans can do, it was a terrific show. We had dinner after followed by hours of gambling, 3 am to be exact. Waking up at 7am the next day was no fun, but it was back to real life. But not before I got a little more gambling in. I'm seeing a pattern of gambling..hmmm.
It was a quick getaway, but very enjoyable and I loved spending the time with my mom. My uncle and I even made her leave her phone behind here and there, it was great she got some time to herself. Although she was angry with us when we would get back to the room and she had 10 voice mails! And it was great seeing some people I had not seen in years.

There was crystals everywhere, very pretty hotel
