Happy New Year's!!!

We went to Las Vegas for New Years, with our friends Kati, Johnny, Lindsey, and Bryan W. It was definitely our "most exciting" New Year's Eve. Last year we spent it together, in our pajamas playing DVD trivial pursuit. Las Vegas was a whole new world. While we were there we ate at Spago (Wolfgang Puck's restaurant), saw Cirque du Soleil "Mystere," and spent time looking for a $5 dollar black jack table...which is nearly impossible. I think the boys ended up finding one at "Bill's Gambling Hall" aka "Wild Bills" (what Lindsey and I renamed it).

We went out every evening...somewhere.


We did have a few celebrity sightings, which I was pumped about. I know, I know....it's silly, but I LOVE People, US weekly, etc... So, I was on the prowl. Lindsey got us the hook up at club LAX in the luxor. Which is a huge celebrity hotspot. With some patience and southern charm, a very sweet bouncer let the gang from Arkansas in. His words exactly were "It's been a pleasure Arkansas." While in line we saw Paris and Nicki Hilton.....love 'em or hate 'em....I thought it was cool. And the girls from "The Hills" were there hosting that evening. I was up in the middle screaming and waving....I was SO excited. I LOVE that show. Also, while we were there, so was Avril Lavigne, Dave Navarro, and Sum 41. Apparently later that evening (sometimes after 1:30am when we hung up our hats) so was Brody Jenner (love him) and Paris/Nicki.


We spent New Year's Eve at IBar at the Rio. We had to walk because they shut down the strip, and no cabs were available. We had to walk (in 3 inch heels) about 2.2 miles...but who's counting...right? Our feet were KILLING us by the time we got to the Rio. Kati and I hung onto each other during the walk over for support, because the boys walked in front of us, telling us to hurry (did I mention it was 40 degrees?). Men would have never made it. It was ridiculous.


We definitely have some funny stories to tell after this trip. We had such a great time, and laughed alot. We are all 6 still catching up on rest.


Happy New Year's to all!
