Vegas anyone??? Those two words alone can probably explain my trip. Vegas for 4 days, stayed at the MGM, gambled or shmabled, which is smashed and gambling in one word, VIP's, day time pool parties, dying heat but not sweating a drop, site seeing, blisters from heals and wedges, limos and party busses......yep, that about sums up my trip! It was my first visit and probably my last for a while, pretty sure I won't top that one and won't be able to find the time or money to try. My travels were with Kaley and Chelsey, Kaley whom I used to babysit sit when she was 8, so i've known her for quite sometime and she's basically my sister. Chelsey is Kaley's best friend since they were little and i'm sure i've met Chelsey around the same age as Kaley, so her too, i've known for quite some time. We had such a blast, loved every minute in vegas, if you've been, then you know. At least i'm only $15 down from gambling, have to say, that's better than most.....so here's some pictures of sin city!!

This past weekend was Darin's 27th birthday. We started off the weekend early on Thursday night when some of our friends were here on a chartered boat from Freeport. It was so nice to see them and sit up on the deck, have a few drinks and carry on as the sun sets in the harbour. We all went out for sushi (which was awesome) had a great rest of the night and went on home. 

Freeport Friends

duh, a harbour....that's the Poop Deck Restaurant with the white roof. Bad name....great food!

 Saturday was a fun day. The pawn shop sponsored a comedy event so we had a live remote with one of the local radio stations out front most of the morning, which brought in some business and got our name out there A LOT, great publicity!! So Saturday night was the comedy event and maaaaaaan it was hilarious!! For sponsoring the event we got a vip table and a large goodie bag. All of the employee's went and we had a GREAT time, laughed a ton!!

the guys got Darin a birthday cake

On Sunday, the birthday weekend continued...we did one of our favorite things, go snorkeling! Got some great photos even though it was a little rough and cloudy out. Saw a big puffer fish and found some great sea glass for my project!!

looking for the puffer fish

there he is!

thought the bubbles were cool

just exploring

Today is Monday....and yet again a holiday here in the Bahamas! We're being super lazy and doing nothing today. It's also the first day of lobster season but we don't have a boat or supplies to catch them. Jealous of the people that are out there today, we'd love to be! Have a good week!! You know I will because VEGAS is in 3 days!!!

Here's my "mom" blog....since we have no kids, i'll take pleasure in updating you about our puppy. Remie has had all great checkups, gotten her microchip, her rabies stuff done and the only thing left is to spay her. I'm not looking forward to that. I want to do it soon, but with Vegas around the corner, i'll be gone for about 2 weeks so it will have to wait till after that. Hopefully Darin will have patience with this crazy pup for the 2 weeks. She's pretty much potty trained at home now, our only problem is when she's at the shop with us. Some days she's great and uses the puppy pads if we don't take her out on time and some days she just goes anywhere and everywhere....can't figure it out. She's almost 4 months now and at her last visit she was 11.5lbs, a month later (yesterday) at her visit she was 21lbs!! I couldn't believe it! 10 lbs in 1 month!! Darin said "only 40lbs more to go", he wants her to be huge, but I think he's realized now she won't be as big, but we do want her to be a good medium size. As you know we're not sure what she is so we'll only find out how big she'll get when she's done growing, we have no average of breed to go by. Here's some recent pictures of her:

and to know she used to lay on that right side in a ball and fit comfortably!

kisses in the morning!
