my weekend without kaylea

My mom and I have had a Vegas trip planned for a few months.  It was only going to be two nights away from Kaylea, but Jordy decided to head to Southern Indiana a night early.  Since he was talking Kaylea with him, I planned a 40th birthday celebration for my friend, Jen.  I picked her up and we went to Scotty's for dinner & drinks with friends.  I must be getting old, because I was home by 10:30.

 

 

We arrived in Vegas Saturday morning.  Below is the view from our room.  We ate at my favorite restaurant, YOLOS and spent some time gambling.  On Sunday we booked a massage, went to dinner at the Gordon Ramsey Restaurant, and saw Jersey Boys.  I will say, the steakhouse was overrate.  I was very excited to try somewhere new but I stick to my favorite - the Bally's Steakhouse!  We had a great time - definitely some needed mother & daughter time.  Even though my mom lives next door, it's hard to get any quality talk time with a 3 year old in every conversation.  I was glad we were only there 2 nights because I was ready to get home and see Jordy & Kaylea.

 

 

I'm hoping to get some pictures of Kaylea's weekend off of Jordy's phone and add them to the post.  It sounds like they had a pretty good time, too.  They went to Schimpff's to get some yummy candy, she got to spend time with Nana and Pop and Shannan and Brenden, and she went to the Lights Under Louisville.
