We found out a few months ago that Bryan was going to a conference in Vegas the first week of December with his two business partners, so of course we thought it was the perfect opportunity for the wives to tag along :) They flew in earlier in the week & we joined them later:
Adriana flew in from Houston but since Krystal & I live near each other, we hitched a ride together:
Our first night there, we had dinner reservations at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant:
This was Justin & Krystal's first time to Vegas so we thought it would be fun for them to have dinner right in the middle of the strip across from the Bellagio so they could watch the fountains dance. It was a great way to kick of our trip:
On Thursday, the guys had a busy day at work so the girls hit the strip. Since Krystal had never been there before, we spent the whole day checking out the hotels, shopping, & eating. Thankfully it wasn't too crowded since it was a Thursday & it was a little cooler outside but we had fun playing tourists:
The Christmas decorations were beautiful, everywhere we went:
Without a doubt, our favorite was the garden at Bellagio. It was truly a winter wonderland:
I am blown away every time I come here!
We knew we had a big night Thursday, so while we were out, we decided to book last minute appointments to get blow outs at:
I had never done this before so I was pretty excited! Adriana was running late, so unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of her, but Krystal & I loved every minute of the pampering:
My hair is straight every single day & I've done up do's before, so I decided to try curls. Krystal did curls also:
Later that evening we got all dolled up & ready to surprise the guys:
That picture cracks me up because you can't tell what we are doing, but we were all huddled together underneath the heat lamp waiting on our ride :)
They had a vendor who planned an evening for us & it started with dinner at the Delano on the very top floor:
They reserved the chef's table where we had a fabulous meal with an even better view:
We took these pictures before dinner inside but afterwards we ventured outside & took pictures again on the patio:
Didn't our pictures turn out awesome?! One of the guys had this awesome camera with night vision. I love the way the Luxor is shining the light in the background.
After dinner, they took us downstairs & surprised us at the Ice Bar:
This was definitely a first! When we checked in, they gave the guys parkas & the girls fur coats. Who knew it was literally an entire bar made out of ice:
Even the chandelier was made out of ice:
Poor Bryan - his head was freezing!
I don't know if you can tell, but even the glasses were made out of ice. The guys had fun on the craps table, yep, made out of ice also:
While the girls had fun singing & dancing:
Bryan & I kept hanging out by the palm tree, hoping it would warm us up :)
To be honest, we only lasted about 15 minutes! I was actually pretty toasty except for me feet. I was wearing sandals & my toes felt like they were about to fall off.
We ended up at a sports bar next that had a ton of games. We all had fun playing pool, foosball, shuffle board & jenga:
Before ending the night in the casino:
The next morning the guys mostly had the day free so we planned a spa day. We checked in early, worked out & I then I enjoyed breakfast by the fire while reading:
Too bad every morning can't be this peaceful! I literally spent 6 hours at the spa. I had a fabulous massage & spent hours reading in the steam room, salt room & then hit up the jacuzzi:
Our final night there, we opted for date night:
One of Bryan's favorite restaurants from NY just opened 2 weeks ago, so we changed our original reservations & were able to get in here:
They had the most beautiful hallway into the restaurant made out of flowers. This was by far our favorite meal of the week! Afterwards, I was pumped because we walked over here:
to see this guy:
Have you figured it out?! It's the king of country himself, Mr. George Straight! I have seen him numerous times, but as soon as I realized he would be playing the weekend we were in town, I started looking for tickets. We have already seen so many of the shows in Vegas so I was beyond excited to hit up a good concert. Lyle Lovett & Robert Earl Keen opened for him:
And then George played for almost 3 hours. He was just as good as he always is!
We had awesome seats & it was the best way to end our trip. Delicious dinner, great music & a perfect evening with this guy:
Thanks for letting me tag along on your business trip babe! Those are some of my favorite trips because we get a few days away without kids :) Love you!
