We went to an outlet mall the first day, and I bought a couple of fun things for me. But my most exciting buys were for little Jameston! Brett gave me gift cards to The Children's Place for my birthday in April, and I found two cute sets of slacks and long-sleeve, button-up shirts. One set is for 3-6 months, and the other is for 6-9 months. Oh so cute!
Here's a pic of the little outfits and shoes (and my first Coach purse :)
that I texted Brett while we were there
The dancing fountains at the Bellagio, a must-see while you are in Vegas!
On Friday night, we went out to eat at the fancy steakhouse Stack. Although a bit overpriced (I guess it comes with the territory), the food was pretty good. Afterwards, the gals wanted to hit up a club and go out "Vegas-style" so we headed to Jet, one of the newer clubs in town. Luckily it was at our hotel the Mirage, because I did not last long! I tried to stay up late, but my body would not let me. It was still fun to experience it!
Clarisse, mwah, Sami, and Jessica
On Saturday we went sight-seeing and walked all along the Vegas strip. I would have to say that the Bellagio Hotel was by far my favorite because of the gardens, blown glass ceilings, chocolate fountains, etc., etc.
21 weeks-Thanks, Jess!
Sami, thank you so much for being our guide...we could not have seen as much as we did without you! Here is a pic of her little cutie-pie daughter, Annalise. She's a doll, isn't she?!
That night we headed to the Dave Matthews Band and Jason Mraz concert at MGM Grand. It was awesome. They played for forever!! It was such a fun weekend filled with friends, great food (and buffets, yum), music, and shopping! We have been talking about taking a trip like this for several years now, so it was nice to finally succeed. I would consider this my last hurrah or girls weekend for awhile with parenthood quickly approaching :) Our upcoming hurrah will outdo any other trip or vacation possible!
Brett stayed home that weekend to demolish and rebuild our master bathroom (progress and pictures will be posted later). He figured it would be the best time, so that I would not be around all the sawdust and fumes. What a great husband I have! This a pic from our stay at the Driskill Hotel in Austin this past weekend
Last weekend was one of the busiest we've had in awhile, but it was so worth it. Friday night we saw one of Brett's and my all-time favorite musicians, James Taylor, at Fair Park in Dallas. It was such a fun date-night, and we really enjoyed the show. Mr. Taylor has been on our "Must- See Musicians" list since we have known each other, so I am glad we got to go!
He played about 20-25 songs, a lot of which were his older hits. What a concert!
And Saturday morning we drove to Austin and met up with Brett's parents for lunch before we headed to John and Wendy's wedding. The ceremony was beautiful, and the reception was a blast! We had a great time seeing old faces and friends from Wichita Falls at the festivities, complete with a mariachi band, a photo booth for scrapbook pages, awesome toasts, and great food (of course :) Congrats Mr. and Mrs. John Cluley!
A traditional Mexican wedding dance...so cool!
We stayed at the fancy Driskill Hotel downtown (for little to nothing)
22 weeks, with my handsome hubby by my side.
We thought we'd change up the belly pics a little :)
What a couple of weekends it has been!
