Vegas Trip 2015

In May, my mom came up and watched Nixon while Jordan and I went to Vegas for a little weekend getaway. We met my sisters and their husbands there, and had a great time. Leaving Nixon was rough. I cried and cried, but I knew he was in the best of hands, and honestly, I don't even think he noticed we were gone! My mom is a rockstar and I am SO blessed she was willing to come and hang out with Nixon.

We had so much fun in Vegas! We ate, shopped, and lost all our money to the blackjack table! :) Jordan and I realized early on that we are not good at gambling. While we were driving down the strip, I saw a banner advertising that they had just opened a Cake Boss bakery inside the Venetian. I knew we had to go there. I have watched every episode ever made and want to be a baker in my next life. The line to get inside was crazy long, but that did not stop us. I was a little worried that the baked goods might not live up to the hype, but they did not disappoint. We decided to try a cannoli, mini chocolate mousse cheesecake, and a lobster tail. The lobster tail was jordan's choice, and honestly, did not look that great to me. Boy was I wrong. That thing was AMAZING! The real game changer was the cheesecake. To say it changed my life would be an understatement. It was delicious!!  My biggest regret is only having bought one.....Buddy sure knows what he's doing in the kitchen.
