Believe it or not, I had a 5 day conference in Vegas for my work. I was soooooo worried about leaving the babies and being able to have a good time while I was away. Well, you can't help but stay crazy busy there! We were at the conference from 8:30 to 4:30 everyday and had a packed evening of fun stuff every night. Before we knew it, it was the last day. I started feeling incredibly tired by the fourth day so I was ready to come home. I can't really post pictures of the other staff members that attended the conference with me so my pictures are of all the pretty things I enjoyed. There are parts of Vegas that would keep me from EVER bringing my children there. There are parts of Vegas that actually disturbed me greatly one evening that I didn't sleep well. However, there are MANY parts of Vegas that are well worth taking the trip to see. Atmosphere and ambiance are two qualities that I like most about places and Vegas has these two things. Our hotel for one was a replica of Italy. The size was overwhelming and it took us about 3 days to figure out how to get around but it was gorgeous. At least while we were walking what felt like miles to find our destination (inside the hotel) we had many pretty things to see.
A few pictures of our hotel, The Venetian:
This was inside our hotel!
It had neat restaurants and stores as well. We did take a ride on the Gondola which all of us enjoyed.
The first night we saw O at the Bellagio.
Words cannot express how awesome this show was! It is a must see!
Talk about Ambiance and Atmosphere at the Bellagio!
If I ever went to Vegas again, I would want to stay here!
I could have sat in this Atrium for hours looking at everything...
The Bellagio also has a dancing fountain show that was pretty cool.
Apparently, you can go to the top of this and see all of Vegas. We ran out of time to take the tour. We opted to go see the Phantom of the Opera. It was playing at the Venetian and it was fabulous!
On the last day, I rode this roller coaster!
Cooper was not himself around me for about a day and it was bothering me greatly. However, I was so tired that I probably was a little sensitive. He was back to his lovey dovey self the next day. Chloe was fine. It appears that all went well while I was gone. Maddie is with us and really helped the babysitter quite a bit. She was running the show. I took her school clothes shopping yesterday for all her hard work!
They got into the brown chair this morning and acted like they were posing for me. I grabbed the camera and this is what I got. Chloe would NOT uncover her face! But, she's smiling! Too funny! She's such a stinker. We are going to have our hands full. It seems that she and Cooper have switched roles.
Mama goes back to work Monday! So sad!
