Vegas Confessions

Unfortunately, I forgot my computer on my kitchen table, but I did remember my camera!

Check out some pics I snapped while visiting the fam in Vegas.

I had a great time catching up with my family whom I hadn't seen in about two years!

Most of the time was spent relaxing and eating with Grandma, my aunts, uncle, and soon-to-be uncle (who's brave enough to marry into our family!). ;)

On Thursday morning I arrived after noon. Grandma landed in Vegas 20 minutes after I did, so we rented a car and headed to our condo. We settled in after eating a quick lunch (which was really dinner on "our" east coast time). After unpacking, we went to David and Mary Anne's to hang out and eat some more! Eating was a theme on this trip, btw.

Friday was one of my favorite days. Grandma and I did some exploring on the Strip, although we didnt wander that far. We went to the Monte Carlo and piddled there before grabbing a yummy lunch at the Dragon Noodle, a chinese restaurant in the casino.

Afterwards, we met up with David and attended a play that my aunt Pookie directed and starred in, Vagina Monologues. While the title is a bit intimidating, it was an awesome play and I was proud of my aunt's performance and directoral role. She did great! Also, I got to meet her fiance, Mark, who will be joining the family in August (yay!).

On Saturday, Grandma and I met up with David and Mary Anne for a hearty brunch at Wynn. We stayed full for hours. And more hours. I had everything from french toast to sushi to ice cream. It was quite yummy and very filling.

That night, the four of us met up with Pookie and Mark for a "last supper" before I left town on Sunday morning. All in all, the trip was fabulous. I made some great memories, most of which I can share... cuz you know, not everything leaves Vegas.
