Vegas 2015!

We went to Vegas in June for a couples trip. We took the opportunity to paaaaaartyyyyyy.


We started in the home pool. Met some friends and took a picture using the memes we had preappoved. (Peace sign, bunny ears, fake wiener if you watch South Park)



The girls got a pic together.



Our room was tiiiigghhhttt. We stayed at the MGM Signature Towers. Great place to stay!



Our room was a super nice suite.



Our view was amazing!




That night, you could find us in da club. We took a quick selfie before heading out. We went to the same club as we went to in 2012.



Why? Because it's outside and the view is awesome!!



We have a good time where ever we go but this club always increases the fun potential.



I didn't get the duck face memo.



We really classed up the place!




The next day we hung by another pool at MGM. It started raining at the perfect time in the afternoon. We had been drinking all day so we needed to take a break before another night of fun. We had dinner reservations so we needed to class ourselves up before dinner.



After dinner, we went to our fave club in Caesars called The Barge. It is the best! It's never crowded and we can totally take over the dance floor and do things like this. Tebowing once again!!


Andrew once again had tummy troubles so he had to go home early but I stayed out with the crew. I was super sad about him having to go back to the room but I was able to muster up the strength to have a good time. 😉



The next day we decided to venture outside our comfort zone and try Wet Republic the day time pool club. It was expensive and way out of our league but we went for it and had a great time!!



There were lots of super rich 20-something's in the pool but we decided we could definitely hang. And hang we did!



Party at the shallow end!!!



The pool got more and more crowded as the day went on.



We had an awesome time!!



There came a moment where it was decided we should leave (after 4 bottles of Tito's, that's a good indicator). Grant's back was in terrible shape so bestie Caveman Stafford helped him walk home several times.


We got lost (and stupid) on the way home.



Seriously. What a mess. It was a good thing we left! Grass is gooooooddd!!!



We tried to turn it around and clean up for dinner that night.



But we were still a mess. Fun happy ridiculously good looking mess at least!



After dinner we did some gambling for the first time all week. On the last day. It was time to go home. Our kids missed us and we were ready to stop the party lifestyle.
All in all a wonderful time was had. But wow, we might be getting too old for this!! 😉

Maria's Bachelorette in Vegas!

 Maria had an awesome idea to go to Vegas for her bachelorette party.  I couldn't help but agree! Off we went! I got up super early in the morning to catch a flight that had a layover in Denver so I could meet up with Maria and flight with her to Vegas from there.

 However, I arrived to the hotel by myself.  Wahh wahhhh.  Maria kind of sort of accidentally missed her flight.  It was so sad!

 The first four bachelorette partiers partied without Maria and Lindsey until they got there later that night.  We were definitely having fun! Caesars!

 When they finally got there, it was time to party! What a great view from our room!! So cool!

 We walked around and asked around as to where we should go.  Someone told us to check out O'Sheas.

 I couldn't believe they opened O'Sheas back up! How exciting! Beer pong for the masses!

 Hey look! It's the three Lindsey B's!! We had to go by straight up last names since they were all Lindsey B's.  Too funny. 

 Great photo op moment!

 After beer pong, Maria received a marriage proposal! Oh Vegas.

 The next day we hit the pool! These was the last seats by the pool pretty much. A bit too shady but we were able to get some sun during the day.

 Andrew sent me flowers to our hotel room for Mother's Day! #Husbandoftheyear #trynottocrynow

 Someone sent champagne to Maria for her bachelorette party.  She tried to pop it.  We all screamed.  Hilarious.

 Me and the future bride!

 Group pic!!

We brought the champagne with us to Planet Hollywood (in a water bottle like we were in high school or something). 

 Now it's time to see Britney!!

 Isn't she lucky this hollywood giiiirrrrllll???

 Check out that stage!!! Gigantic!

 Some sort of jungle theme going on here. ;) She totally jumped off that tree.  She was attached to wires though. 

 We sat next to this super fans. They all dressed up like a different version of Brit Brit.  They were also in their 30s like us.  They were hilarious.  You can get a red pleather outfit on etsy, by the way.  We asked. :)

 After the show, we hit the craps tables!!

I flew home on Sunday after the whirlwind weekend that was so fun.  I had my flower packed up with me.  No way I was leaving those there. 

What an awesome weekend we had! I miss my Maria so much.  I was so glad I got to spend the weekend with her celebrating her upcoming wedding!

Vegas, Baby! Literally.

Hey Ashley, is this what you had in mind for your koozies after Vegas? 

Vegas 2012... Where the 30's include kids with sippy cups.  Lame-o's. Someone get the Thornburgs some beer! 

Um, yeah so when are we going back again?? I didn't get enough of this.  

Vegas Baby Vegas!

Andrew and I and fifteen other people went to Las Vegas recently for some fun.  We had an awesome time.  I'll try to quickly run through the best moments.

 We ate dinner (yes all 17 of us) at Carlos and Charlie's at the Flamingo.  We had a great time there.

 We took SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS-SHOTS-SHOTS SHOTS! EVERYBODY!

 We drank gigantic margaritas called Big Mamas.

 They were terrific. Did I mention they were giant?

 Then we made our own dance floor after requesting songs from the DJ.  He played EVERY SINGLE ONE of them.  We were shocked.  (It was mostly sweet 90s jams.)

 Then we went to a fancy nightclub and had bottle service.  We are classy kids I tell ya.  We went to a club called Chateau in the Paris hotel.  This was our view of the Eiffel Tower.  The tables where you had bottle service were on top of the Sugar Factory candy store.  So we had a super clear view of the Bellagio Fountain show.  It was awesome.

 Speaking of classy, Andrew was hitting the cranberry vodkas like a champ in his "dress jeans".  Hehehe.

 Katie and I classed up our husbands just by standing next to them.  They're so darn lucky. :-) :-)

Pure and total class, folks.

So the next day, we decided to get our tickets for the show we were seeing.  Andrew tried his best to look like a tourist.  We walked from the Planet Hollywood to the Venetian.  That's a long dang walk.

We went to see a rock opera called Phantom of the Opera.  Ha.  It was a great show and with the organ and the pyrotechnics, it did rock! Fireworks, murder, chandeliers falling from the ceiling, our pets HEADS ARE FALLING OFF... No but really we really enjoyed very much.  I was so glad to see it with Andrew especially since it's dunzo in Vegas this fall. Aww. :( By the way, it was only 6 of us that saw it, not all 17.  That would be a little difficult.

 I love the Vegas skyline. I didn't get very many pictures of it on my fourth visit to Vegas. Too busy I guess.

 On Sunday, the Billboard Music Awards were happening at the MGM Casino.  We went and stood outside and stalked celebrities as they were arriving the red carpet.  We weren't in our bikinis to impress any celebrities, if you're wondering.  We were actually so dang hot that we had to be in our swimsuits.

 Celeb stalkers are us!

 I think this might have been Taylor Swift in the red. 

 This was definitely Carrie Underwood.  Now that is a Cinderella ball gown! 

 Justin Bieber actually walked up to the crowd! Look at that swagger.  He was the only celebrity that did that.  You probably heard the 12 year olds screaming all the way back in the midwest.  

Bye bye Bieber! I guess he thinks he's dressed up if he's wearing his Canadian tuxedo.  

 We also saw Usher in his blue suit.  It was awesome.  We also saw LMFAO, Gladys Knight, Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke.  My camera died before I could get any pictures of those people.

 On the last night, we decided to go Turbo.  We drank in the double suite before we went out.

We started singing. I'm not sure what we were singing here. (I look gorgeous!) But Grant is doing his best photo bomb for the occasion.

 After drinking and singing, we did some dancing. Grant and Ashley can really break it down.

 Then we decided planking would be a good idea.

 Andrew and Grant decided to make it more complicated.

 Then it was a group effort.

 Then it was time for Owling.
Why Owling?

Wait, maybe one more...

Now that's impressive, Drewfus.

We finally decided to leave the suite and walk to another night club. It was the last night and I didn't feel like I took enough pictures so I made the poor girls pose at a few landmarks along our walk to the final nightclub.  This, my friends, is a statue of a horse.  Because... why not?  

 Then we posed by the fountain at Caesars. Because... that's where some of the best jokes in the Hangover were made.  Duh.  (You can see the check-in desk behind us.) 

 At the nightclub, we did some mad dancing.  Grant and Ashley broke it down, once again. 

 I turned into "College Morgan"and started dropping my glass drinks.  Yikes.  No idea why I get a terrible case of the butterfingers.  Embarrassing. 

 Big Al had a 5 hour energy.  Look at him go! 

This was our DJ.  I finally convinced him to play some Beastie Boys for the "birthday girl" (aka ME!).  I had to name off 5 songs before he agreed to play one.  Ugh.  Boy doesn't know good music when he hears it I guess.  

 It took Kevin probably 5 or 6 pictures to get one that was actually in focus and used the flash properly.  Yay Kevin! 

 Ashley has an A on her dress that stands for AWWWWWESOME Dance Moves I guess. :-) 

 Now it looks like Grant is trying to climb over Ashley.  You can't stop breaking it down once you've started apparently. 

 To finish off the night of memes, Ashley decided to do a little Tebowing to end the night on a proper note.  Hell Yeah.  

We had an amazing time in Vegas.  We seriously cannot stop reliving it.  I hope we can do this again sometime.  

But we did miss our boy.  

When we saw him for the first time when we came home, it was amazing. He was so excited.  The look on his face was priceless.  Then he started showing off.  We're pretty sure he grew an inch and learn a hundred more words (Morganism).  He's such a big boy.  

But lucky for us and him, he was super busy when we were gone.  Aww.  He found his baby pool had a better use.
