Beachy Keen

I'm only 17 days away from a vacation. 17 long, very long days. Scott and I booked a vacation to Cocoa Beach, Florida with my brother and his wife to see one of the last shuttle launches in history! I'm so excited! We got a condo directly on the beach with private access basically next door the launch site so we will have first row viewing. Then I will enjoy four solid days of relaxing, reading books and working on my tan!

It can't come soon enough!

This is the outfit I'm going to wear...

Just kidding! I wish I could look this amazing at the beach.

I did buy this on sale yesterday though...

From anthro,

It's such a beautiful dress that hugs and drapes in all the right places. I can't wait to wear it to dinner one night with some brightly colored beaded jewelry.

Dear April 18th, please come fast!

This is a picture of Scott and I at Galveston beach right after we started dating. I can't believe this was almost 6 years ago!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend. I will be going to High Point furniture market tomorrow, if you'll be there please give me a shout so we can meet up!

Vegas Baby!

As I mentioned before Scott and I had the wonderful chance to take a weekend trip to vegas for our first anniversary. It was so nice to get away and just happened to be the start to my two week sabbatical.

We stayed at the Paris Las Vegas. The hotel was gorgeous and in a great location on the strip, right across from the Bellagio and the beautiful dancing fountains. We went to watch them 4 times and each time it was different.

Inside the Bellagio the lobby was so beautiful...

And they had a gorgeous botanical display. It smelled so lovely...

The first night we saw Penn & Teller. It was a great show and afterward I got a picture with Penn!

Then we went to see the fountains at night and they were even more enchanting!

The next day we saw a Sigfreid and Roy's secret garden or whatever it's called. All the animals were sleepy and they promised baby tigers and there were no baby tigers!!! ggggrrrr!

The last night we had front row seats at Cirque du Soleil which was beyond words. The show is so amazing. I just love all the theatrics, the costumes, the props...amazing! No pics of that unfortunately.

We also went to Fremont Street, which has the largest TV screen in the world! This is it before the big show...

Here it is during the Doors tribute they had playing. This isn't even the whole screen, we were standing in the middle!

It was such a great trip. I even won $100 playing a Sex and the City Slot machine. Now, I had no idea what I was doing on there, I was just pressing buttons at random the money just kept going up!

We even saw the Hoover Dam from the plane on the way home, where we sat first class by the way, now I can never go back to coach. I had no idea of all the luxury you get in first class!
