Las Vegas {Part Three}

 Happy Thursday!! Today I am sharing the third and final part of our Las Vegas trip! You can find parts one and two, plus all things Vegas food, HERE.

Wednesday, December 31


We started NYE off by going over to the Luxor hotel. We were actually planning to stay here instead of Flamingo, but my mother in law changed her mind right before the trip. We were actually glad we didn't stay here, because it was kind of far from a lot of things. Plus, we heard that it's really not a great place to stay anyway.








We went to Luxor for Play Playground- an adult play ground. We each got credits to play the games. Some were individual and some were team. We had fun, but I don't think I'd do it again. Once it got busy, some of us overwhelmed and just ready to go. 


Back at the hotel and ready to ring in the new year!


We had In n Out for dinner and got ice cream at Ghirardelli (as I am typing this I'm just now finding out there's a second 'r' in Ghirardelli, lol).















For the rest of the night, we walked around the hotel and casino, walked next door to check out the hotel and casino there, watched NYE shows, and hung out. We could see the fireworks at the Venetian from our room! We could also see just a tiny bit of the Sphere, and it had fun things displayed all night. We also got our things packed and ready to go home...

Thursday, January 1

Our first flight had a rough start, and I got scared on a plane for the first time. Not sure why I was so nervous, but I was super happy to see the ground a few hours later!


Two faves from all the flights. These pretzels are SO good! And oh my, the water on Southwest is a new favorite 😂. It was very smooth if that makes sense....hahaha.

We had such a great trip with great weather, great food and drinks, and best of all- great company! If you're considering a trip to Las Vegas, let this be your sign to GO! It really is so much fun! There's so much to see and do just by walking through the different hotels. There is also lots of great shopping, and if I haven't mentioned it yet, so much good food!

Have a great Thursday!

Friday Favorites {6.6.25}

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...
