HAPPY ANNIVERSARY


Zac and I celebrated our one year anniversary last week. Time flies!!! I can't believe we have been married for a year. This truly has been the best year of my life. We have so much fun together and I never thought that marriage would be this great. We decided to go to Vegas for our anniversary...Sin City..why not? We left on the 10th and our anniversary is on the 11th so before we left we decided to eat the defrosted top of our wedding cake. It actually wasnt too bad. It did taste a little freezer burned and dry but the chocolate cream in the middle was still rather tasty, sick, I know. We drove to Vegas and checked into our hotel, our room was excellent and the sound of the Casino thrilled me. We got settled and then hit the strip. I was sooo bummed to learn that the majority of the Casinos no longer allow you to put loose change in them, you have to use cash or buy tickets. One of my favorites parts of the Casinos is hearing the noise of change falling out of the machine, but this time there were none :( We walked to almost every Casino the day we got there and poor Zac was wearing sandals and he hurt his foot. He is such a trooper, his foot was killing him but he kept going every day. There is no way I would have kept going like he did. The next day we were on the strip again. We rode the rollercoaster at NY NY and that was a lot of fun, and made me want to go to Six Flags. We then went to old town Vegas to look for slot machines where you could actually put quarters in, and we found some. I was so excited. We played the slots and quickly lost some money. The next day we went to the Stratesphere. This was my 4th time in Vegas and I had never been. We didnt ride the rides, in fear we would be sick the rest of the day, but we did go to the top. It was really cool and reminded me of Seattle Space Needle. We then went to the Valley of Fire, way cool. Its a state park that has awesome orangish red rocks. This place is beautiful. If you get the chance to go to Vegas, you have to see this place, its about an hour drive and well worth it. The next day we went home and we had to stop at the Hoover Dam. I wanted a picture next to sign now that I am a Hoover. The trip was tons of fun and we didnt want to come home!!!! Especially since school starts next week as well as my lovely internship :(
