Viva Las Vegas

It is Katie, Brittany (Katie's roommate), Tyler and Erin's weekend o' fun in Vegas.

It is always great to have family up here visiting and what a great weekend they chose. It was near 80 today and light wind. I ditched work at noon and we headed down to the Strip. Tyler has been wanting to go to the Ferrari dealership at the Wynn; so we did. I actually didn't realize it was a real car dealership; thought it was just a display thing. We chatted with one of the sales guys for a bit. They sale between 20 - 30 cars/month. And apparently you just can't buy a brand new Ferrari. You have to work your way up to a brand new one. It was fascinating. They have one that they let people sit in and they will take your picture. I think Tyler was in heaven. Average price - $250,000. Wow.

The other thing Tyler has always wanted to do is to ride the Big Shot on top of the Stratosphere. We headed over there Thursday evening. That was my 6th time riding it and it still FREAKS me out! (Remember when you and I went, Heather and you told me you hated me? LOL).

Brittany had never been to Vegas so it was fun waking through the casinos and showing her the sites. We of course stopped at the Bellagio where their Spring conservatory display did not disappoint. The smell of flowers was overwhelming.

All Katie wanted to do was be able to sleep in and sit by the pool. I think tomorrow we will be able to accomplish both successfully!

The three of them just walked down the street to grab a movie for the evening; I wore them out walking around all day. I decided to sit here and blog while they are out doing that. :)
