Vegas Baby!

So my dear friend Marjorie had the great idea to invite a group of girls down to her family place on Lake Las Vegas this past weekend. I have been down to Vegas twice before and both times stayed at hotels on the strip so it was nice to actually stay in a home for a change and be away from all the craziness. The house was absolutely amazing and right down the street from Celine Dion's house. I think someone had the bright idea to go down to her house on Friday night and serenade her. Luckily we kept on drinking and forgot all about it.

Marjorie's good friend Heather would cook us fabulous breakfasts in the mornings:Mimosas in the hot tub on Saturday morning (check out the cool view):
On Saturday afternoon/night we went down to the strip to sight see, people watch, drink, and have some dinner (not necessarily all in that order). Here is the before picture of all us girls:
We went to dinner at Aureole in the Mandalay Bay. The food was very yummy and the conversation even better:
Laura selecting our wines for dinner on their electronic wine list. It is sort of hard to see, but it was more like a Kindle:
After dinner we went to check out the new City Center on the strip. It was quite the spectacle with it's leaning buildings. I was too close to get any real good pictures of it. Here are the girls getting ready to board the tram from the City Center to the Bellagio:
And the dancing photos:
The last picture of the night:
I want to send a HUGE thank you to Marjorie for hosting us. You are the hostess with the mostess! I also want to send a thank you to Molly who was our DD and drove us home at 3 in the morning from the strip - you are a saint!
