The aforementioned Girls’ Trip was a huge success: friendship, yummy food, great shows, relaxing and coming home feeling rejuvenated. I went with Husband’s high school girlfriends, that I’m glad I can call my friends too. We lived up Vegas the best way that three, Mormon, married moms can.

{After a night cap of steamers & hot coco, we hit the sack early and got the best present the next day…}

Day 3

{…we all slept in, albeit until 8:15am. We grabbed some pastries and went poolside.}

{Got all dolled up for a fine dining experience at Aureole. That’s the place with the wine cellar they repel to retrieve the bottles. Yes, the one that was on the Bachelor.}

{The highlight was the French Onion Soup with Fois Gras that the waiter asked if I wanted to take a picture of before he cut into for me. We were that obvious with our cameras. No shame.}

{Front row seats to Mystere by Cirque du Soleil. First 5 minutes, ca-razy, then I jumped on board and loved it. This was the closest we came to using my book of $1 singles.}

    Looks like the Vegas escape was a smashing success! And next time I get out to Sin City, I’ll definitely take into account some of the cool stuff you gals did.
