A Whole New Vegas

Will and I spent last weekend in Las Vegas. A whole new Las Vegas. Prior to this trip, I'd only experienced the drinking till the wee hours and dancing till the shoes come off Vegas. This time was a lot different. I don't think I had a single drink while I was there, didn't gamble a dime, and stayed out of the clubs. But it was so much fun! We stayed at the Wynn Hotel www.wynnlasvegas.com and it was beautiful! Our suite was incredible, Five Diamond rated. The hotel had excellent restaurants where I definitely indulged! So delicious!





The second night we were there we saw Cirque Du Soleil Love at the Mirage. It was the best show I have ever seen.



I love Love! It blew me away. Highly recommend it if you find yourself in Vegas. The music was great, story was fun and the dancing/acrobatics were impressive. I would consider going back to see it again.

Overall, I had a fantastic weekend away. Will and I reconnected. I came home recharged and rested. This was definitely a successful vacation!

Part-Time It is

Yesterday I made a big decision. I've opted to start grad. school on a part-time basis. It's been weighing on me the last month or so and I'm so happy to have the stress lifted. It comes down to balance, and I think that I would have been sacrificing too much to get the program done in two years. My marriage and kids are too precious! While I'm not thrilled about four years of school, this is the direction I want to go and if it takes two years, four years, or longer, so-be-it. I'm so thankful for Will's support. He makes tough decisions a lot eaiser. Love him.
