Vegas SMEGAS!

Since living in Seattle for almost 6 years (wild that it's already been that long!), Gabe and I have truly been blessed with loving friends, and one being an extra special group of couples we met at Eastlake Church.  Just after joining Eastlake, we signed up for a "Growth Group" aka small group for married couples and feel God handpicked three couples just for us.  I view these gals as my sisters and had the pleasure of celebrating two of them for their 30th birthday shenanigans in Vegas.  It is really rare to find 3 gals and 3 guy that click 100%, and they are them!!!

I've been to Vegas multiple times, but never with a big group!!
The troops just after arriving in Vegas

Gabe was meeting us all in Vegas after his work trip in Phoenix, and let's just say I needed a few tasty beverages to get me through him missing his flight, and the next 5 flights on standby.  So, we bought him a one way cause he couldn't miss out on the festivities!!!


The birthday girls!!!
The first night was spent with a girls outing vs the boys doing their thang'

Dinner and cocktails at a darling spot in the Bellagio hotel on a patio 


 Ended up with VIP @ Tao

Next day, walking the strip with a mission for brunch ...

And hubs is happy with Margaritaville - hit the spot

Gabe's a HUGE Jimmy Buffet fan along with Jessie's husband Matt, so they were all over the havanas n' bananas.  It was a first for me, glad to be part of the cool club now.

We were THRILLED with sun and hotter weather than Seattle, 
so we made our way to Planet Hollywoods pool.


An afternoon pick-me-up @ Pink's Hot Dogs

Group festivities begin @ Yolos - I think there were 20 of us :)

Cool Table #1

Cooler Table #2 


Drinks ... Can't remember where we went, ha!






 Who loves a sparkly wall, ME!

After hours of karaoke, trucking home for early flight home.

Until next time Vegas ....
