KEVIN'S 23RD BIRTHDAY



Today is January 28th and Kevin's birthday was on December 29th. I'm just a month behind on updating you all, but better late than never right? We spent a weekend in Vegas for Kevin's birthday. I surprised him by booking a room at The Palms Casino Resort. Let me just say that The Palms made such a great impression on the both of us. We'll be sure to book with them again in the near future. Reasons? I'll give you 5...
  1. Room rates are affordable 
  2. Located off the strip
  3. Less hectic to come in and out of
  4. Swanky/spacious room with an amazing view (they upgraded us to a suite free of charge)
  5. Coffee Bean & Tea leaf and Earl of Sandwich is located in their food court

Kevin's one birthday wish was to go sledding. It took us a total of 3 times to get up to Mt.Charleston due to some gps complications. By our second attempt we were on the verge of just turning back around but I'm glad we didn't. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I've seen snow before but I've never witnessed actual snow fall. I was in absolute awe of Mt. Charleston's snowy scenic beauty.  It's definitely a must see if you're ever in Vegas. Sledding was also another first for me. I was terrified because I had no idea how slippery it would be. To make matters worse I wore booties with no grip whatsoever. Thankfully I didn't eat shit, but I continuously slipped here and there. 

It was such a nice little getaway for the both of us. What a successful birthday weekend it turned out to be, and here I thought Vegas was only good for turning up.
