Summer Update overload!

I don't blame anyone if they don't read all of this, but here's what has been going on during my summer vacation:) School starts for me a week today. I am going to put pictures up of the house as soon as we get our shutters put in. They are taking what seems like forever! Hopefully they get put in sometime next week. I traveled a lot this summer, but didn't take a lot of pictures. Right after school ended, I went to Chicago to visit my fam. Brett didn't come with me though. Just a girls trip. My sister Amy met me there. It was good to go home again and dig through my old stuff. I found the most hilarious pictures! We also went to Texas for the 4th of July to work at my Dad's resturant. It was fun and exhausting at the same time. Brett somehow ended up in the parade dressed up in a pizza costume! It was quite embarrassing! He walked up to me in front of everyone and gave me a huge hug! I'll spare everyone the pictures of that incident. If you really want to see pictures of the parade, you can go on facebook and find Whizzerville Hall.
Well one of the first things we did this summer was meet up with one of Brett's friends from college. I actually went to high school with him, but Brett had a ton of classes with him. We walked around Vegas and watched the NBA finals at Caesar's Palace. I'm pretty sure we were the only ones cheering for the Celatics! After, we walked around Vegas and saw the water show at the Belagio. There were ducks in the water and I was terrified that they would get shot up in the air by the water! I know I'm a nerd!
Next, my friend from college Kristy came and visited me:) It was fun to hang out with her again. We went to the Rio casino and laid out by the pool, took our dogs to this huge dog park, went to dinner at BJ's and went to this really cool place called Artrageous. It's a ceramics place where they already have premade things for you to pick out and then you paint them whatever colors you want. They fire and glaze them there and you can go pick it up in a couple of days. Kristy picked out these really cute little dishes and painted dolka dots on them. I decided to make something for Brett for our anniversary. It took me forever and I decided that I'm not a painter. But, it was fun and relaxing.







Soon after she left, my friends from high school came down for a Bachorlette Party for Jamie! I surprised them by getting us a room at the Excalibur:) First, we had to get a pedi done! The ladies there were really werid and one smelled Kristin's foot and didn't know what gel toes were!!! But they all turned out cute;)


So again my camera abilites suck, but I did take some video:) We went to eat at this Mexican place in the Luxor. The whole time we were there this band kept singing so loud right by us! It was quite annoying! But two of them came up to us and decided to sing to Kristin! Let's just say it was priceless!

We seriously had the time of our lives that night! So many random and funny things happened! Like Whitnee randomly falling out of nowhere, getting into Coyota Ugly and Eva Night Club and Kristin whipping out the type writer:) Good times:)

The next weekend after that we went up to SLC for the 24th. We went out to dinner at this place called the Red Iguana. It was pretty good and it was featured on Diners, Dine-ins and Dives! I love that show:) We went to a Bee's game after, which they lost. They whole game the benched players kept looking back at the stands at the girls! It was quite disgusting. This cougar in front of us kept hitting on Brett's cousin while his date was sitting right there! And the benched players were hitting on her the whole time. But she did say something pretty funny to them! They threw her a ball and she wrote back to them saying "I don't do a $20,000 a year salary. Call me when you make it to the big leagues!" Haha they deserve it!




Because it was the 24th, they had fireworks after. A quick back story on fireworks in my fam. My dad and brett have become obsessed with fireworks since they did 4th fireworks in Texas. My dad talks to Brett more then me!!! All they do is talk about fireworks and what their going to do for next year. I swear I married my dad. He is like a mini Thomas!

So I'm getting kinda tired, so I'll finish my summer update tomorrow:)Tomorrow I'll finish our trip to SLC, our trip to Pawn Stars, my trip to Cedar, our trip to Shark Reef and our trip to San Diego:)
