I'm Back!

Well I got back late last night instead of this morning! Yippee! My boss ended up paying extra and changing our plane tickets. I was so happy! The trip was exhausting. It was one of those conferences where you were up at 6 am and it was non-stop all day until like 11 pm...with no free time. The weather was bad on the night of the planned dinner at the Ghost Bar so they moved our group to the Moon Bar which is still at the Palms. It was really cool and had an amazing view. They had dinner there for us and open bar. They had this magician (not what you are thinking) that walked around doing stuff...he was like Simon Baker's character on the Mentalist...he did some tricks but he was more of a mind guy and would know stuff about people. It was really cool! After that wrapped up...we went to the Playboy club!! I have always wanted to go since I used to watch "Girls Next Door" tv show. It was pretty cool! I then volunteered to take home someone that had a little too much to drink in a cab...let's just say that the next day...there were a couple people hurting at the conference. I didn't have much to drink but I just didn't sleep well and combined with time change...I was so tired! So I had planned to take lots of pics but didn't do a good job! I did get pics of my room at Planet Hollywood.

There was a shower to the right in the bathroom



I did watch "Food Inc" the movie on the plane on my IPOD and it was really interesting. I haven't eaten meat in a few weeks already but it definitely reinforces that when you eat food...really try to eat organic and local! Trust me. I also got to read on the plane and finished "The Castaways" (not my favorite of the ones I have read by Elin Hilderbrand) and "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan" by Lisa See...I really liked this book...it was really good. Now what will I read next...
Vegas would have been a really fun place to go to when I was younger and with a group...but being on a work trip...everything was planned out so you really didn't get to do what you wanted to do. Also it was smokey and I never saw the outside! Don't really have a desire to go back anytime soon....
One positive about being in Vegas was getting ready...those of you that have kids will get this...but to get ready in the morning and before dinner without anyone calling for you....and I took my time getting ready...it was great!!!
So Jeff and Norah went to the beach this weekend to visit Nini! Norah was super excited to go...so I'm by myself till tomorrow! I miss them so much! I did get to sleep in this morning and then took a nap this afternoon...it was heavenly! I did run some errands...Costco, Grocery...ran into Melissa..Hey Melissa!! and her cute twin boys!
Tomorrow I'm going shopping for Finn's stuff at Petsmart...he comes home to us next Saturday...I'm so excited! Well I'm off to bed but here are some pics of Norah that Jeff took with his phone...I thought for phone pics they came out pretty good. I can't wait to see them tomorrow!! Now I'm off to bed!

Jeff and Nini said that Norah is having a blast at the beach! They went out to eat tonight at High Hammock and she made a new friend with another little girl eating there! How cute!! :)
