Las Vegas in December

Third time to Vegas this year (Feb, Aug, and Dec) which is not unusual in the insurance business, and I already expect to be back next February.  Luckily I've made my peace with the city and am no longer a Vegas hater but try to enjoy what's there which obviously is quite a lot.  I'm not a gambler but have had fun trying it (love those $5.00 blackjack tables at the Mirage).  Im not a big drinker but have had a blast at the bar "The Chandelier" inside the Cosmopolitan and "The Ice Bar" inside Mandalay Bay, and I'm not a huge shopper but I love the shops at Ceasar's Palace (where else would you buy Prada with you winnings?). And that fountain in front of The Bellagio, gorgeous, especially at Christmas time.  It is the place to see and do the less than everyday.  One very memorable trip was in Feb 2010 when I had gotten tickets to see "Love" and Sue and Sara drove from San Diego to meet me.  That was when Sara announced I was a great Aunt and I was like, "well thank you", and she says, "no I mean you're going to be a Great Aunt".  So cool.  Anyway it was a girls weekend and so much fun.  Hard to believe that was almost 5 years ago.

Three months and counting.  I was so excited last week to receive my invitation to Jake and Gina's wedding:

 

I'm so looking forward to our families being together.
