Viva Las Vegas

We returned to the Big A after a 4 day trip to Vegas. One of our friends surprised her husband on his 40th birthday with 2 tickets to Las Vegas. She presented them to him with the kids Thursday morning at his office. She planned this so good that his boss was already aware of his trip and the guys in the office video taped the whole thing! He even cried a little!

We met up with them at the airport with another couple and surprised him once again! He was so excited and we hung up posters of him and his many fun pics throughout his 40 years in the airport and on the plane! The flight attendants were aware of our arrival and teased him all the way to Vegas. It was great. We stayed at the Treasure Island and gambled in every casino on the strip. One of our favorite places was Planet Hollywood - everyone won that night and Jeff stayed at one blackjack table for over 6 hours! This was my first trip to Vegas in 7 years. It was strange for me to sit by a slot machine and not have my Mom, Aunt Connie or Nanny yelling for those "Blazing Seven".
