BFF's go to Vegas!

Leo, Me, Jaime & Danny

Well, where do I start? Leo and I just returned from Sin City and had an absolute blast! Leo and Danny planned a secret getaway/late birthday present for Jaime and I and surprised us with a 4 day weekend with no kids. I was so excited to get away and have a few days to myself, but I was even more excited that we would be going with the Summerhays! (I don't know how to pluralize that word..even worse, I don't know how to pluralize Gonzalez)

Now, Vegas has never been my favorite place to vacation, but I must say, I was very, very impressed. We stayed off the strip, which is the key...and lived in a condo for those 4 days. We did lots of shopping, watching movies, talking and most of all EATING!

I promised Jaime, Dan & Leo that I would document some of our memorable moments so that we wouldn't forget. What better place than on the blog?

So, here is my version of the Top 10 Favortie Happenings in Vegas:

10.
Going to Oscar de La Hoya's after party at Body English (Hard Rock). Well, let's just say Oscar didn't show up...we think his after party was at the hospital. BUT, Jaime danced the night away as if Danny was her own, personal body guard!

Oscar...get well soon!


9.
Renting from Red Box with their special "tent" so that you can rent all your favorites and not have to worry about the person behind you seeing what you are renting.

8.
Danny and Leo feeling "weird" after eating at a buffet sushi bar that closes from 3pm - 4pm to refresh their catch. Leo and Danny happened to eat at 3:30pm and got sick. Go figure?

7.
Meeting my new crush Doug from Mimi's Cafe. He was our waiter 2 days in a row, and even managed to remember our names. My favorite line was when Jaime told him "Where I come from, people give people kisses on their cheeks for their birthday." Doug probably could've taken us to HR had we worked with him. We were harassing him, but it was all in good fun. He is even one of my new friends on Facebook...gotta love that! When we left, he let us take this photo with him and right then I said to him, "Doug, hug us like you mean it." Does it sound like Jaime and I were getting enough attention from our husbands on this trip?

6.
Meeting the look-a-like Wayne Newton. Now, prepare yourself for this picture. Who wouldn't have thought this guy was an impersanator? He told us he has been at the Tropicana for 30 years, so we assumed he sang there. Nope, he has a hair salon there and the way he looks and dresses is for REAL, not at all trying to impersanate anyone!

5.
Eating dinner with Natalie and Jeff and Capo's. If you are in Vegas, GO THERE! It is awesome!

4.
Watching Danny and Leo play on there iPhones all FREAKING day long!

Texting each other

3.
Trying to buy Jaime her birthday dress that can be worn 100 different way. I was jealous because the saleslady thought she was Jaime's BFF.

BFF's?

2.
Watching movies with everyone and Leo coming up with one-liners that he thought he could use on me...come to fine out, it was meant for a woman to say. I will NEVER say what that one-liner is...I'm embarrased I watched that movie!


NO PICTURE


1.
Doug (Mimi's waiter) saying to Leo "OJ?" meaning Orange Juice. However, we had just been watching OJ Simpson's sentencing earlier and for some odd reason, Leo thought Doug was asking him his opinion on OJ! I think we ALL peed our pants watching the blank look on Leo's face trying to figure out why in the HECK Doug would care about OJ's sentencing and Leo's opinion. We blamed it on the "language barrier".

"I'm so glad OJ is finally in prison!"

Thanks for planning this getaway Leo...I love you no matter what you think about OJ!
