Vegas Baby!

Jason and I went to Vegas at the end of January. At first, we thought we were going to be snowed in Arkansas, but thankfully we got to fly out! We stayed at the Excalibur. It looked like a castle...fit for a princess!
The first night we were there I hit $600 on a penny machine! That got me all fired up! I just knew I was going to come back to Arkansas with millions...

We got to walk all around Vegas...which I should have listened to Jason. He said "you probably don't want to wear heels." My stubborn ways and I decided I could do it. Then about 5 hours later I thought my feet were going to fall off....
I think we hit almost every casino on the strip. Each one of them had something different to see. The Bellagio of course had the fountains. Cesar's had a show that statues come to life. Treasure Island had a ship that came to life...we missed that one though...too busy gambling I guess. One casino has a swimming area that has a shark tank in the middle! AND you can slide down the middle of all the sharks!
We got bus tickets and went to the old part of town. We both love it down there. There is a huge screen above your head down the whole street! There are performers on the street too. The coolest thing was spray can paintings. This guy could paint anything with cans of spray paint! Another reason Jason likes the old part of town is because there are still slots that spit out quarters at you! I don't like those because I don't know how much money I have and I just keep sticking my quarters in the machines until I am out....

Jason LOVED the Star Wars slots, and I loved the Sex in the City slots. We both played those a lot!
We even got to take our picture with a million bucks! Only got to take the picture home though...
Another fun thing we got to do was go to the Pawn Stars store! It was so cool! We didn't see the guys on the show though, they were hiding!

So we didn't come home with millions, but we got to see some amazing things, eat great food, and made great memories!
