Year of Firsts....June

Half way through the year and still loving my New Year's resolution.  Anyone who knows me knows how much I love Cirque du Soliel shows, so when my friend Hailee's husband was out of the country doing an internship the whole summer, I maximized the opportunity and made her and Angela take a Vegas trip with me.  

Like every vegas trip, we had to get our pool time in!  We got settled into our condo and decided to have a snack.  I was beginning a healthy eating adventure, so we decided to make smoothies..... Well, I guess I don't know how to operate a magic bullet because this is the result.

I really don't know what happened other than I couldn't figure out why it was so difficult to screw the bullet into the base without losing all the smoothie mixture.  haha

After we had sufficient pool time, and after Hailee had practically walked around and debugged the whole pool, we decided to hit the town.  We stopped by the garden room at the Bellagio and watched the water show.

 But the real reason we were there was to watch "O" by Cirque du Soleil!  I have wanted to see this show for years, and what better way to see it than while trying to accomplish my "year of firsts."  Despite all its quirkiness and weird statues, Vegas is a quick and easy weekend getaway that never disappoints.   And I would highly recommend "O!!"  So good!!
