Vegas & NFR 2012

WARNING: Long Post Ahead

 

Viva Las Vegas

We arrived and we are ready to hit the town but first we got crazy looks as we were headed to catch a cab. They all thought we were moving there...I mean hello a whole week in Vegas you just cant fit into 1 piece of luggage. The husbands thought we were overloaded but thankfully due to there half of a bag we were just fine. I know all yal girls know how we do. I even packed light because last year I over packed. I slimmed down to only 4 pieces this year.

 

The crazy cab people put us in this tiny car with all our luggage so we all had luggage everywhere. We could barley see, even the driver had to hold a piece HaHa

If they would have given us the van they wouldn't have this problem.

We all had a good laugh.

The next morning we woke up and headed over to the Hard Rock to grab some breakfast.

As a reality TV junkie I wanted to visit here because I seen it on The Real World

It was so good I knew right then and there we were going to eat there often.

Now it is time to head on over to Cowboy Christmas to get our shopping on

Being a veteran I knew I wasn't going to carry all those bags around so I brought along a suitcase to put it all in and push around. So much easier.

We had use of the hotels Limo all week since we were timeshare members and yes it was so nice not having to deal with cab drivers and catch the monorail. 

First stop... find Headbands

I converted my Sil over and now she loves them



 

We found the neatest horse

I volunteered Chirsti to take it for a ride and while she tested it out I think everyone must have been waiting for someone to check it out because they all started to gather around and take pictures

 

The guys had planned a date night and we had no idea what we were doing or going.

I mean we did figure to eat because that's what we love to do.

As soon as I saw this dress at KiKiLaRue I knew I had to have it and I didn't want to wear heels because I knew my feet couldn't take it Vegas is a feet hurter for sure so I took Raven advice and ordered these amazing Fergie Boots. You better go grab them they are on a huge sale I wish they were when I ordered them.



 

The Farmer and I outside the Venetian



 

Delmonico Steakhouse  which is Emerils restaurant and it was the best food I have ever eaten.

 

After we ate we went to the MGM to listen to 

they are a new group who just signed a record deal and would be best described if you took
Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean and put them together you have LoCash Cowboys

They def know how to perform and keep a crown going we had the best time

Rodeo time because we all know that what it is all about

 

While at the Rodeo look who I ran into?

2 of the Hottest women in Rodeo

Terryn Cooper wife of Clif Cooper and Tiffany long term girlfriend of Tuf Cooper

 I mean Tuf you can  put a ring on it anytime now.

Aren't they just Gorge I'm always checking in with them to see what they are trending

because they are always on top of things.

 

While I killed some time in between the Farmers Million Dollar bull watching I spot my favorite PRCA bull rider and his smoking wife Shane & Jesse Proctor. If it sound similar its because Jesse is the sister of PBR bull rider JB Mauney. I got to watch him win the world last year in Vegas so I was pumped that I actually got to meet him although I felt like I knew both of them because I watched their reality show. LoL

 

 Other than Rodeo what is a girl to do in Vegas?

 

 The Farmer and I waiting 5 minutes for the Cheesecake Factory to open to get out eat on

This is where we first learned of the Newton CT devastation which broke my heart and I went straight into thinking about my kidos who I had to call. I will always remember just like 9/11

The Farmer didn't follow directions to well Where is his fish face?

 You know you are a fat girl when you get there early and make sure no one breaks in front of you in line know even if they did there is a seat for everyone. This was all of our selection and it was as good as it was last year

Doing a little shopping and wishing Santa thought I was good enough to add these to my bag

I guess there is always next year I was just happy to hold them it made my heart happy happy happy

RedBottoms you make me melt

While we waited for my favorite designers ever Gypsy Soule to start their fashion show I ran into my girl Cicily who makes some of my headbands and who is also on the reality show Texas Women 

After a long day and night...I knew I had a good nite by my face but don't remember this picture I just found it on my phone :}

Now we are back at the Hard Rock

 

 to check out Pink Taco and it was delish I would recommend it for sure from the food to the drinks

 While there we ran into PaulyD and even first pumped with him

 Drank way to many of these babies

 

Walking through Cowboy Christmas to grab a seat for another bucking bull thing I ran into:

Someone who I thought was Casey James but lucky for me Momma Ballou helped me out and quickly filled me in...Bucky Covington so I then we laughed the day away and the joke that I ran into Bucky James. Maybe Pink Taco wasn't a good idea, but on the bright side we had a good laugh.

Thank goodness I didn't day anything to him but it would of been funny if I did.

 

After Freshening up back at the hotel we headed over to the South Point to because that is where the nights rodeo round winners come to get the buckle

 

Cheese! we were ready to sip on some Pendleton Whisky and Let'er Buck

 

 to our surprise when we pulled up look who is right infront handing out free Christmas presents

You know this fat girl went straight to them and they were fresh and hot!

 After sipping down some beverages we thought it was a good idea to put some food in the belly and since we all heard that In and Out burger was the best we knew we had to try it....Not a god idea

It was horrible we all thought so we took 2 bites and all looked at each other and threw that junk in the trash where it belonged. I don't know if we just got a bad batch or what but it wasn't what I thought

 

After a very long fun and tiring week it was time to head back to the Delta

See ya next time Vegas

I have 2 more Exciting things that happened while in Vegas but decided to do a separate post about each of them being it is very important and memorable
