This year for Thanksgiving my whole fam. headed off to vegas for a week. It was sooooo fun. Well for those of you who dont know..... I have NEVER been to Vegas so it was quite an adventure for me. All my family had been there before but me. Bud (my oldest brother) lives down there so we stayed with him and his wife the first night then the rest of my family came down the next day so the next day around 2ish we were able to check into the condos. I hired Bud as my personal guide/ driver. Which its a good thing because being pulled over within 5min of being in Vegas and being ripped a new one by the cop was enough for me. So from there on out Bud or Jamie got to drive me around. I dont know what it is about Bud but he is a Kid magnet. Everywhere he goes kids just cling to him.
So one of our first adventures was the shark reef inside Mandalay Bay. It was so amazing. That was until Sheila bless her little heart reminded me of if the glass were to break there was over a Million gallons of water headed our way.....and ya that water contained lots of sharks!!!!!And Yes this was my first to see a shark, jellyfish, stingray etc.....
Then it was time for Turkey at Buds house....
Next on the agenda is the Bellagio to see the gardens and the Chocolate Factory
Several stops later we headed off to Ceasars Palace. This was probably my very most favorite Casinos. I loved the architecture of the building and all the statues inside. not to mention the free shows that they had inside were amazing too!!!!!!
And we cant forget OUR very, very, most favorite show. Tournament of Kings at the Excalibur. It was Jada, Tate, and serveral others Favorite. It was just so interactive and I would go back in a heartbeat to see the show again. Unfortunatly you cant take pictures during the show because it scares the horses so I took what I could. Then after we were able to sneak a pic with one of the Kings.
Really what is Vegas without visiting the Stratosphere???? So of course I had to find someone, anyone to go on the rides with me. It was so fun. The view was AMAZING, and the Big shot was such a rush!!!!!! Bud kills me..... on the pic they take while your on it his face was priceless. Due to circumstances, the heights factor and ya well thats about it not very many people were just jumping out of their pants to go with me but I did get Bud and Dan to join me.
And last of all just some odd and ends...........
