Vegas Baby!

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to take a girls trip to Vegas with friends from my Provo Ward.  It was so fun and nice to get away for a little bit!!  My friend Laura and I were the only ones coming from Utah so we rode together to meet up with everyone there.
 Doug was amazing and watched everyone while I played.  I got these snapchats from him one morning. 
 He cracks me up.  We didn't really do much down there.  The first day we slept in, worked out, relaxed in the pool and hot tub for a long time and then finally decided to get some lunch around 3.  There was a Shake Shack in New York New York that I was excited about.  It was yummy!
 Here's another snap I got while I was away.
 We did a little bit of shopping and
 and then headed to the Monte Carlo to see Blue Man Group
 They all kept making fun of me for trying to take a picture looking like them.
 The show was bizarrely awesome.  It was pretty lively and entertaining and then it was totally wild at the end.  This was before the show.
 And here's during part of it
 And then at the end they dropped these huge balls from the ceiling.  They were probably 8 feet across.  They were like giant beach balls that we passed back and forth. They kept changing color and there were streamers and confetti flying everywhere too.  It was nuts but pretty fun.
After that we walked down to Carlo's Bakery in the Venetian and had a delicious cream filled lobster tail thing. 
 Then we had dinner and walked through the Bellagio on our way back to the hotel.  The display in the conservatory was amazing!! It was all Chinese New Year and was awesome.  The night before we walked through and there was hardly any of it up.  It was amazing to see it completely finished the next day!! I really wonder if they worked all night long. 
This little person was made entirely of mums and carnations.  Amazing.
 We couldn't figure out what the goats were all about and then we realized it's the year of the goat!  So we had to take a picture of the moms with the kids.  Hahaha...
 The next day we slept in again and then went to Into the Woods.  The theater we went to had recliners for all the seats.  It was amazing!! I don't think I can go to a regular theater again.  JK.
 Last pictures before leaving the hotel.
 It was seriously such a fun trip and I'm sooooooo thankful to Doug for letting me go! It was definitely something I needed and that I'll appreciate for a long time!!!
