Viva Vegas Anniversary

Agh, where does the time go? My summer vacay is dwindling down so quickly. Two weekends ago, the husband took me to Vegas for our two year anniversary. He's been there numerous times and I've been a few, but we had never gone together. We started off our anniversary weekend early on Friday, going out for drinks at the St. Regis. I just had to get my hands down favorite bloody mary: the Great Wall Bloody Mary.




BTW, did you know that the first bloody mary ever was served 76 years ago at the St. Regis in New York? It was created there. Crazy!

Next day, husband tried to throw me off where we were going, but at the last minute told me we were flying. As soon as I found out it was Vegas, I was psyched. However, we faced a three hour delay, which meant drinks in the bar!




We stayed at the Venetian, which was absolutely gorgeous, and went out dancing the first night with friends. Dinner was at a darling french restaurant in the Venetian called Bouchon. We were also introduced to the most insane restaurant in Vegas: the Peppermill. I almost got a picture with Holly Madison there (however, she was a bit mean and blew me off); however, Nick drinking "The Scorpion" with an ex-coworker there more than made up for it.









Yeah, that last photo up there is the closest I got to taking a picture with Holly. The next day, the husband was a true romantic. We went to Paris for our honeymoon, and he surprised me by taking me to dinner on our anniversary in the Eiffel Tower restaurant. It was probably the nicest meal I've ever had. He even had flowers waiting for me.






I was in blue cheese heaven!



And then we finished off our last day with lunch at Serendipity. Now, their famed iced hot chocolate was a HUGE letdown, but their burgers were AMAZE-BALLS. Nick had a burger with brie and avocado, while I went for their barbecue burger with blue cheese and bacon. Their burgers are definitely near the top of our list!







It was an absolutely unforgettable anniversary, and I don't know how I'm going to top him next year. Thank you, Love.
