Michael and I drove up over the Mesa yesterday. The colors were so pretty up there! We spent a couple hours taking tons of pictures! It was a lot of fun!!












Friday morning on the way back home, we went to the Coors plant in Golden. It was a really cool place! I would definitely recommend going if you get the chance. It was a self guided tour, it took about a half hour or so, then when we were done we went and sat in the lounge for a while and relaxed!
I have no clue what these things are that we're standing in front of, but Michael wanted our pictures with them! :)
Fun week!
All of the writing on the floor plan is backwards, but this is what the house actually looks like.
We drove out to the house today and they poured all the concrete for our foundation!! Yea!! We're so excited for November to come so we can move in!!
We stayed at Bally's Hotel. The hotel was pretty nice, but more than anything, we liked the location, right in the middle of the Strip! We had to stand in line FOREVER to get checked in. As you can tell by the picture, Michael was very excited to be hitting the strip after 8 hours of driving, an hour of waiting to get checked in, and an hour waiting for me to "freshen up!" :)
We ate at Mon Ami Gabi inside Paris Paris. It was a cute little Italian restraunt. I had yummy pasta with some kinda of peas in it! it was good!!

The second day we went to the "Secret Garden" at the Mirage. They had dolphins, and tigers, and lions, and alpacas, and a rooster. Kind of a weird mix of animals if you ask me! The little baby tigers were sooooo cute!! We stood there and watched them play for at least half an hour!
This would be Michael trying to be a lion! :)
You can't really see him, but Michael is standing in front of this "Revolution" sign that is outside the theatre for "Love" by Cirque Du Soleiel. We didn't go see this show, we just thought the sign was really cool!
Tuesday night, we went to "American Super Stars" at the Stratosphere. It was a pretty fun show. They had, Elvis, Rod Stewart, Tim McGraw, Cristina Aguilera, and Michael Jackson impersonators. The show tickets came with passes to go to the top of the Stratosphere, so we did that before the show started.
We had to make sure we got Starbucks while we were up there. I'm pretty sure we went to at least one Starbucks in every hotel we went to! Starbucks in Las Vegas was soooo expensive!! But worth it for good coffee!
Wednesday morning we went to the Grand Lux Cafe, it is a restraunt owned by the same people as the Cheese Cake Factory. My sister always talks about this restraunt, so I was really excited to go! It was yummy!!


We also rode on the gondola that goes through the inside of the Venetian. The guy "paddling" our boat was really nice, he made the ride a lot of fun!
Later that night, we went to the Cirque Du Soleil show, O, it was awesome. The stage is a 25 foot deep pool with 2.5 million gallons of water! We decided last minute before O, that we wanted to go to Blueman afterwards, so as soon as O got done we raced out of the Bellagio, where O was at, over to the Venetian, just in time to pick up our tickets and get seated before Blueman started. Michael and I had both seen it before, but it was still awesome the second time (third time for him)!
This last one is in the car on the way home.
