Twilight the Movie

So I have made the comment that I did not particularly enjoy the movie Twilight upon my first viewing of it. I would like to retract that statement. I went for the second time with Jayci and it was like seeing another movie. I knew what to expect and what not to expect. I loved it! True there will always be a few things that aren't quite right, but what movie is perfect, especially one based off an amazing book. But once you know what the movie brings it becomes quite easy to accept it and begin to feel the movie the way the book made you feel.

So for all of you Twilight fans out there, don't let your disappointment stop you from seeing the movie again, trust me it will be better second time around. It was romantic and sexy and pretty much awesome. And yes I will so be seeing it again...

Coldplay Concert

So it has been a really busy weekend full of lots of events. Friday I went with my best friend Jayci and her husband Tomas to see the movie Twilight. Saw the movie and I will let others decide what thet think of it, but lets just say could have been better. Afterwards we met up with some of my other friends and went out to dinner to celebrate my birthday. Always nice to get out and then hung out with Jayci back at their house.

Saturday went with my coworker Traci to see Coldplay in concert. First we went to dinner and then did some shopping at the GAP and whoo hoo bought some great stuff at amazing prices, I love sales. Then on to the concert which was beyond amazing. Worth every penny we spent to go and made an awesome memory. Glad Traci and I got to together is was great!

VEGAS!!!!!!!!!

So for my birthday I went with my friend Kacie to Las Vegas. We had a totally awesome time! So starting Friday morning we began our trip, this is us heading past St. George for being the desert it had some pretty sites. So after 6 hours of chatting and laughing, we finally drove into Vegas and went down the entire strip, just to we could see everything.
We checked into the Luxor Hotel around 3pm and chilled in our room. We got all dressed up and met up with my boss Jyl, who was there on business. I sadly choose to wear really cute, but painful high heeled boots. Ended up walking all over the strip trying to find the mall, which we did find. Went out to Cheesecake Factory for dinner and sung to and had an awesome cheesecake. Even got to blow out the candle, yeah happy 27th birthday to me!

So after a fun time eating dinner we did a little bit more shopping then headed to Treasure Island, where Jyl was staying, to get ready to go out dancing. We decided to go to the club in the hotel, got there at about 12 midnight and danced till we were all too tired. By the time Kacie and I got back to our hotel it was after 4am and we seriously slept for forever.

So on Saturday after lying in bed sleeping and then watching TV we decided maybe we should get ready for the day and see some of Vegas. We made it to the hotel buffet More around 2pm and ate breakfast,lunch, dinner and dessert all in one sitting. Way to get all the days meals done all at once. As we slowly moved toward our next destination, we had really sore feet and backs, so walking was not on our favorite list. We went to the Mirage Hotel to go and see the Dolphin Habitat and Secret Garden. This was probably the best part of the trip seeing the dolphins and the lions up close. I have always wanted to see dolphins and it was wonderful, now I just need to swim with them and life will be perfect.
After seeing the animals and staying till they closed and made us leave, we headed back to our hotel . We then went to Criss Angel Believe show, which was really awesome. Not quite what I thought is was going to be, but very cool. After the show the plan was to go dancing at the LAX club, but us ladies were too tired to do anything more than to head to our hotel and go to bed.

We slept in on Sunday, until of course we had to get up because check out was at 11am. We went to eat at the Rainforest Cafe, very colorful and loud place, super cool atmosphere. Passed the tigers in the MGM Grand and then walked over to M&M World. Next to it was a water massage and since we didn't end up getting our real massages it was close enough to the real thing. While at M&M World I got dark chocolate, mint M&Ms and they were sooooo good, that's how candy should taste. Then it was back to the car and another 6 hour drive back home, and it was a very,very long trip home. But we made it in one piece and were back to work the next day. Great way to spend a birthday!
