Ok, so I went to Vegas last week. Here is how my experience went:
Saturday night we dropped the kids off at my parents house at bedtime. We had to leave early Sunday morning and didn't want to have to wake the kids up and plus they love spending the night at maw maw and paw paws house. So, we dropped them off and back home we went for last minute details on packing. Sunday morning we woke up at a wonderful 5am, ugh, and out the door by 6am. We had to pick up a guy Matt works with, mind you we went out there for a expo for Matt's work. Get to airport the wonderful 2hrs early like they ask and hurried up to wait. lol We got boarded onto a tiny little plane for my first ever flight. We flew the whopping 30 minutes from Dayton to Cleveland and then waited another 2hrs for our flight to Vegas. A lot of waiting was going on. Then we got on our flight to Vegas, which was a bigger plane, and headed off on our 4 or 5 hr flight, can't remember which it is. Everything was going great, the sights were awesome!! Then when it came to descending for our landing and it was getting bumpy, I wasn't too fond of it. But we made it safe and sound. We landed around 2 something and didn't set foot into our hotel room till 4. We then went and got a bite to eat at Margaritaville, which is some good eats!! Walked around a bit and sadly enough we was in bed at 8:30pm, we were whooped!!! lol
Since we got to bed so early we was up at 5:30am!!! So we walked down to Mc Donald's and then gambled a little bit and then Matt was off to his expo which meant I got a little more shut eye!! Matt came back to the hotel to get me for lunch, which mind you, it is actually hard to find somewhere to eat before 4pm, unless you wanna pay and arm and a leg!! The sites are awesome in Vegas!! The lights are awesome in Vegas!! Beautiful, but already I was ready to go home to my babies!! I was missing them already!! By Tuesday I was in full out missing them. I mean, we were sitting in Hooters and I was ready to cry from missing them so much!! I didn't think it would be that bad, but man I just wanted to go home!!! But we were able to get my mind off of it, but going to 2 shows. They were so funny!! It was a great time and we actually stayed up later Monday and Tuesday nights!!lol But we never truely got on Vegas time!!
Wednesday was the day from hell!!! We went to a timeshare thing so we could get some free stuff, it was only suppose to be 90 minutes and it ended up taking us 5 HOURS!!! We did mind you buy a sample timeshare, but come on 5 HOURS!! We were both pissed and hungry by the time it was all said and done. We went and got something to eat and guess what, I got diarehha from it!!! Yep, not a good day!! I spent pretty much the rest of the night in the hotel room. Then not only was that bad enuf, but the lovely diarehha lasted thru the next morning. So there I am at the airport sitting as close to the bathroom as I could waiting on the plane. I think I totalled up going 8 times in a 9hr time frame and 3 of those hours I was sleeping!! Yea, I know, too much detail, but you gotta know what the day was like. I felt horrid and was so scared I wouldn't make it thru takeoff. Well, I fell asleep on the plane before we ever took off, slept for an hour and woke up feeling fine!! Thank goodness!!! This day was just like Sunday, a lot of hurrying up to wait! We finally made it to pick up the kids at 8pm and boy was I so happy to see them. That night, they weren't as excited as I hoped, but boy were they come Friday morning!! I missed them so incredibly much and don't plan on leaving them like that for a very very very long time!!!
Now, I left out a lot of detail, which I will post in another blog, but I knew if I didn't write something now, it would never get wrote. lol
So, all in all, Vegas is a nice town, but not the town for us! We most likely won't be going back, atleast not for several years!!
