Viva Las Vegas!

It's Market time at the Las Vegas Mart.  Summer is always fun because the husbands can come along.  So off we go...
Are we there yet?


First stop...The Wynn - The husbands were thoroughly impressed with their parking system.  If the space is occupied, the light is red...if it's available, it's green.  Genius!  No more wandering up and down aisles.  They should have these in every parking garage.


I can't even express to you in words how hot it was in the parking structure...demonstrated by Laurie, here...but think your-entire-body-in-a-400-degree-oven hot...you-can't-walk-fast-enough hot...hotter-than-hot...did I mention that it was hot?!


Love, love, love their Esplanade.  Love it!


Silly, happy, girls...who haven't started shopping yet.  There will not be smiles like this later in the trip...just sore feet, aching backs and cross eyed looks...


Laurie & her hubby Chris


Me & my hubby John


This is my son and his beautiful wife who happened to be there at the same time for a different event...do not be confused by the ocean in the background...you are correct, there is no ocean in Vegas...there was also no picture taking of my son and his beautiful wife in Vegas...hence the ocean in the background.  ANYWAY...he won a little moola in the poker room...


...so he treated us all to the buffet for dinner.  He was very pleased with himself.  We were too, since it allowed us to gorge ourselves on unlimited shrimp and crab legs...until we could hardly walk to the room.  Thank you son.


Alrighty...let's get our shopping on!


Oooh...treats!  (Delicious & beautiful Caprese kabobs...you WILL see these at one of our events!)


Cheers!  (after-all you need a little beverage after the Caprese kabobs!)  Well, there were a few "little beverages"...do you think they want you slap happy so you'll spend more?


After a few "little beverages", these squirrels had a life of their own...mostly in Joe Pesci voices (it was hilarious...really!)


Part Pekingese or Wookie?  You decide...(again, hilarious)


Isn't that the truth!


mmmm...desserts were consumed


and consumed...


 oh yeah...and consumed...


How much did we order???!!


How many more showrooms do we have to do?!
(Or maybe that was...How many margaritas did I have?!) jk


Here's to a good Market and glad we're heading home!
(OK - it was our husband's beer - we don't do beer...but where's the Merlot?)


We hope you have as much fun buying it as we did picking it out!

Until next time,
~Mary
