Viva Las Vegas

This last weekend Ryan and I decided we've had enough of the cold and thought it might be fun to take a trip down south to get away from the snow. So we picked up our friends Kelly and Melissa in Salt Lake and drove to Vegas. Kelly and I had never been to Hoover Dam so we went there first thing in the morning. It really was pretty amazing. Although I think the bridge they are building is almost even more amazing, It's not even half way done and I just can't fathom how they're going to finish it. So, after Hoover Dam we headed over to the Golden Nugget to hang out by the pool. We all wanted to get some rays, but were a little paranoid since we haven't seen the sun forever, so we loaded on the sun block and didn't really end up getting anything. It was still so nice just to sit in the sun and relax. Soon the sun was gone and we headed back to get ready for the night. We had some dinner at The Cheesecake Factory and walked through the Belagio Gardens and saw the water show. Even after eating our cheesecake for dessert, for some reason we thought we still needed to stop at Neilson's Frozen Custard and get a shake. So, it was a pretty fun weekend getting away since we still have snow here in Bear Lake. I just hope it warms up fast- or else we may be needing to take more trips down south.
