Viva Las Vegas

Last weekend was a fun one spent in Las Vegas. Aunt Debbie invited some of her employees and Robby's family to spend the weekend in Sin City. We stayed at the Wynn, which is unbelievable, and gambled our savings away. Not really, but it sounds like something you should say when you get home from Vegas! We actually came home with a few dollars in our pockets. No thanks to me. I stuck my $20 in my Grandma's favorite machine, $.25 Wild Cherry, and didn't end up lucky. Robby, Sammy, and Sara did pretty well on Black Jack, or Jack Black depending on who you talk to :)

We arrived in Vegas Friday afternoon and played around in the casino until dinner.

"Just cash out!"

Triple 7! Big winner ($6.25)

Dinner Friday night was at this place:

We had quite the spread and all left stuffed. Check out one of the desserts they brought. A giant fortune cookie!

The next day we walked up and down the strip and checked out a few of the other massive hotels and casinos, but ended up back at the Wynn in a cabana by the pool. Does it get any better than this?

Dad and Cindy love this guy!

We had a late lunch at Mario Batali's Enoteca San Marco in the Venetian. We were not super impressed with the menu or tiny package of breadsticks they gave us once seated, but the margarita pizza we split was out of this world. 4 thumbs up from us! It made me miss my Grandma and Naples :)

Saturday night we went across the street to Treasure Island and saw a Cirque du Soleil show, Mystere. It was amazing, but I made the mistake of booking the 9:30PM show. As entertaining as it was, we were all about to nod off. Lesson learned!

On the way home from the airport we stopped by Sara's new APT to pick up her KEYS (and a jolly rancher)!!! WAHOO!

What an awesome trip! We have been so lucky this year with all of the great vacations we have been able to go on.
