VALENTINES in VEGAS BABY!!

So this year for Valentines Emily and Jeff invited us to go to LAS VEGAS with them and stay with Jeff's awesome sister and bro-in-law, Jodi and Allan. Of coarse we couldn't pass that up and we had a BLAST!!

Friday night the boys had made a reservation for dinner at an Italian place called BRIO- let me just tell you- it was the BEST Italian food I have ever had! Good Job Hubbies!
The restaurant was gorgeous, the atmosphere was amazing, and the food was awesome!!




The lights in VEGAS are sweet at night- i LOVE it!!

Saturday we woke up and decided to sight see and people watch. We basically walked the ENTIRE strip- it took us about 6 and a half hours. It didn't seem like that long though.


It so fun to sight-see. I swear every time I go there's new stuff and things always being built. There are some GORGEOUS places- especially the Bellagio and Mandlay Bay.


This NARELY bike was a fav amoung the boys.



Well- I talked everyone into going to SIEGFRIED & ROY'S SECRET GARDEN cuz I have ALWAYS wanted to go....


They had a cool dolphin tank but we didn't get to see any of the little ones. We did get to see this little one- he's a baby leopard and only a few months old. I think he had more stuffed animals in his room then most kids.


Here are my FAVORITE! I have always LOVED white tigers from ever since I was teeny tiny. This guy was gi-normous, there was only one though, I don't know what happened to the one that tried to eat Roy (or whoever).

They also had this orange tiger (I wish i coulda gotten better pics but I'm still experimenting with my new camera). I think he was sick of all the pictures though cuz he walked down to the fence and pee'd on some lady trying to get a close-up of him. :o)


And more of my favorites! I think i spent the most time at the cage right here- i could have spent ALL day there! Inside were 5 baby white tigers and 1 orange guy. They were only 9 MONTHS old and already huge.




They played the whole time we watched them and never rested- it was AWESOME! I want one for a pet....

These big fellas didn't move the whole time we were there. I think one of them was Mufasa. :o)

Here are the leopard parents- they were very chill as well.

And randomly- a bunch of Alpacas.

The GARDEN part of the "Garden" was also very pretty...


We ate at ESPN Zone Saturday afternoon cuz the boys wanted too- it was pretty cool and there was a crap load of TV's with every sport on you could think of!!



VALENTINES night we bought tickets to see MYSTERE at Treasure Island. It was AMAZING! I think I was gapping in amazement the whole time! I highly recommend it to everyone when they go to VEGAS it was SPECTACULARLY AWESOME!!! :O) oh- did i mention that Mike got pulled on stage?! Yeah he did- his worse nightmare... You'll have to ask him about it...
