Vegas tomorrow.... why not?

So Thursday night Brady and I were decided what day we wanted to go to St. George for our anniversary. Brady got the great idea.. why don't we go to vegas instead? It's only 2 hours away and the shopping is like a million times better! So we hopped on kayak.com and found a great deal on a hotel room for the night!! So we woke up the next day got ready and away we went! :) 
Drivin to Vegas .. and it just kept getting hotter... and hotter! 

What is that you ask? Are we next to the pool fully clothed? why yes, yes we are! We had to check out our hotel then we went shopping! Little did we know the pool was closed at 7:30 when we went back to actually swim! dang happy hour and live entertainment! (no one knew who the entertainer was) But we watched  for a bit then hit the strip!

In front of the Venetian ...and guess how much those waters cost? 3.50 ... EACH! ... wait just kidding those ones didn't because we got them at Walgreen's, the smaller 20 oz. bottles at our hotel were 3.50! They were robbing us blind! Because with that heat and the length of the strip you HAVE to drink water .. and the fact we shopped for like 3 hours before .. holy walking! 
I will tell you what this Mickey d's was like manna from heaven! SOO hungry we needed this!
Don't quite know how we don't look DEAD in this photo because we were!! We walked almost the entire strip and we were BEAT! we didn't make it much farther than the Bellagio! My personal feelings of the strip? Overrated.
Have any of you lovely people watched Pawn Stars? Well Brady and I enjoy watching it, and this my friends is the pawn shop. Unfortunately we didn't see any of the guys on the show but we did see some of the items that they've bought on the show and Brady got a sweet Chumlee is my homeboy shirt. 

Well that's it, our spontaneous trip to Vegas. And my advice to you: 
1. Don't go to Vegas in the middle of the summer .. it's freaking hot! 
2. Don't try to squeeze it all into a slightly longer than 24 hr period... way too much stuff and then when you get home and try to relax you see Vegas lights every time you close your eyes as your brain tries to process it all. 
3. Go to the pool, it feels nice
4. If you're not a fan of booze, smoke, and porn don't walk the whole strip, go to a few iconic places and peace outta there! 

until next time
