I spent 5 days in Las Vegas with my family for my sister's 40th birthday! It was a trip of a lifetime. The hotel room was the nicest room I have ever stayed in (I practically lived in that jacuzzi tub!), the food was incredible, and the company was of course the best part. The view of the strip from my hotel room was priceless. The pictures don't do it justice at all. There was double sinks and the rain shower was so much fun. I want one now! We saw The Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian and I was leaning forward in aw the entire time. It was the coolest thing I have ever seen. The special affects were amazing and Christine's voice I swear was better than the original. My Dad rented out a cabana by the pool at our hotel (JW Marriott Resort and Spa) and we had a waitress bring us drinks. I had several virgin strawberry daiquiri's during the vacation! I got a great tan while lying out in our cabana area. My sister-in-law and I went to the spa and spent some time in the outdoor jacuzzi. It was so relaxing. The jacuzzi is close to waterfalls and we had it all to ourselves. The spa jacuzzi is private and can't be used by hotel guests without paying the spa fee. It sure was better than sitting in the jacuzzi at the main pool with all of those people! Hanging out with my family makes me so happy. It is a rare thing for all of us siblings to be together and without any kids. It was awesome. It was hard to leave Las Vegas and my family, but it was fun to come back to Brian! ;) I know there are a lot of pictures, but this isn't even half of them. You can click on the pictures to make them larger. Enjoy!

Great write-up Ape! I'll need to refer to your write up on my ill posted blog:) It was GREAT seeing you! What a fun time we had. You'll have to come up and party for my 40th.....
Great post. Fun times. I am so glad you did not put in the pics of us behind the waterfall. It's nice to have pictures of the 4 of us together, but it's best if we keep those pics to ourselves. I've never seen me look so bad. Oh well.
