Vegas Baby!!!!

GoDaddy Christmas parties were amazing. I looked forward to them all year long. So it was sad when Patrick switched jobs and I had to say goodbye to those parties. But it seems that Carvin Software one up'd GoDaddy in the Christmas party department!
They flew us out to Vegas for the weekend!!
It was so nice to just fly there (50 min flight) instead of a 5hr drive.
They had a limo pick us up at the airport .My first time in a limo!! 

Back at Thanksgiving we stayed at Excalibur because it was the cheapest option, but this time we were in the fanciest hotel I've ever been in! The Cosmopolitan. We were on the 52nd floor! This was our view from our balcony. Yep, our balcony. 


Here is a panoramic view of our room. We just couldn't get over how nice it was!! We had 2 tvs, a couch, a mini bar, fluffy robes, a huge walk in shower, Jacuzzi tub. We were so spoiled. 


We met up with his boss and coworkers for a bit after we checked in and then Patrick and I went to go eat at the buffet at the Cosmopolitan, the Wicked Spoon.

 So on top of flying us out, and paying for our room we also got $200 for food/drinks! Since we don't gamble or drink our money went toward food. We ate at a buffet 3 times while there!! 
Saturday after sleeping(!!!) and stuffing ourselves at a breakfast buffet we went and walked around the miracle mile of shops. So many expensive shops! But we enjoy people watching and window shopping.
Oh and getting our fortune! 



Then we went and waited for the fountain show at the Bellagio which is always fun to watch. It was nice and sunny out while we were there but such a cold wind!! 

One of the buffets had THE BEST bread pudding. Oh man, I dream about that stuff! I had to take a picture of it. 


Here is some of the food that we enjoyed at the various buffets. We were just stuffed the whole time we were there. 





We napped and tried out the jacuzzi tub and fancy shower that afternoon and then that night we had a company dinner. We went to the resturant inside the Cosmopolitan and it was fancy! One of those places where the prices arent even on the menu! His boss just ordered a bunch of food and we ate it family style which was the best. Got to try things that I'd never had before, like octopus and crab cakes and other types of fish. It was amazing. 


We left early the next morning to fly back home. A quick trip but so fun and nice. Definitely beat a GoDaddy party!!
