Vegas! (Hope)

I haven't posted this past week, because I was on VACATION!!  My husband and I went to Vegas to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary, which was on May 18th.  We also celebrated both of us turning 40!  My husband, Kenny, turns the big 4-O on June 29th, and I turn 40 on July 4th!

We had the best time!  We were able to tour the hotels and casinos, have drinks by the pool, and go out to dinner every night.  We gambled just a bit, and decided that if we were going to be losing money, we might as well go shopping!

I wasn't concerned about my diet, because we walked at least five miles every day.  It was hot, but at least it was a dry heat, so I wasn't dripping with sweat.  Our resort had a super nice gym, but I forgot to pack my running shoes!  My husband ran 4 miles every day, and ran the strip once.  I thought he was crazy to run in that heat, but he felt better afterward. 

As much as I enjoyed the time with my husband, I was happy to be reunited with our four kids and get back to our busy lives!  I bought a bunch of fruit at the grocery store last night, and took the little boys for a walk with Megan tonight.  I went to weigh myself this morning, but the battery in my scale was dead, so I need to buy a new one.  I don't think I have gained, though, because my mom gave me three pairs of capris that are 2 sizes smaller than I am used to wearing, and 4 sizes smaller than I wore in February, and they fit!  That's pretty exciting!  I'll have to post my weight when I replace the battery, but until then, here are some pictures from my fabulous vacation with my husband!















Can't wait 'til my next vacation!

Looks like you had a great time! I loved Vegas when we went, but that was 7 years ago! I'm ready to go back after seeing your pictures!
