What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas

It's been a while since my last post due to the fact that the husband and I went to Las Vegas this week. Jeremy worked the first couple of days while I slept, read a mindless book, got a massage, slept, read, slept, read.... you get the idea.

Once Jeremy was done working, we switched hotels to stay at the Bellagio the last two nights. A-mazing. It was beautiful and MUCH different from the Rio. Overall, we really felt like we did the whole "Vegas experience": gambled some, got to go to a trendy nightclub (thanks to Jeremy's work), saw Penn & Teller (for free, thanks, again, Jeremy's work), got to eat at Mesa Grill (the most amazing meal we've EVER eaten- more on that later), saw "O", laid out by the pool (and actually got a little tan!), shopped, and walked around on the strip. Yes, it was wonderful but we talked about Claire a LOT and missed her so much.

To sum up our trip, here are some quotes from the week:

Jeremy: "My accuracy rating is 98%."
Katy: "How did you determine that?"
Jeremy: "98%, Katy, 98%."

Jeremy (while we were at the nightclub for Jeremy's expo with an awesome DJ and no dancing): "I yearn in my heart for Josh Lang to be here. HE would dance."

Jeremy (while we were watching 2 girls who began to dance as a crowd of men formed around them and talking about how sad it was): "Maybe I should get up and start dancing to distract them. Then the guys wouldn't stare at those girls. You know, for Jesus."

Katy (talking about the sweet lady in charge of the restaurant Keno game): "She looks like a gelfling!"
side note: I kind of feel badly about this now but it made Jeremy laugh really hard at breakfast.

Jeremy (while Jeremy was mourning the fact that he was almost done with his dinner at Mesa Grill): "Bobby Flay has ruined me. I'm going to become a vegetarian."

Overall, it was the perfect kind of trip: really enjoyed it and was ready to come home.
