Nicholas' 30th Birthday






For Nicholas' 30th Birthday I surprised him with a vacation to Las Vegas, NV!! Neither one of us had ever been there before and it turned out to be an interesting trip. He was amused by the fact there were signs for $1 BJ (standing for Black Jack) so we went into the casino to play some Black Jack. Well of course all of the $1 tables were full but there were some spots open at the Roulette table so we decided to try that for a while. We had a great time at this Roulette table and won a lot before getting back to where we started but the dealer was an awesome lady. Roulette became our game. It is a lot of fun and really pure luck involved!! We did have fun on the computer Black Jack machines at our hotel and actually played and chatted for a few hours with people from MN and IA! Small world. The very first picture is of the motorcycle Nicholas had his heart on winning. Since there are no motorcycles in the garage, you can guess how that went for him. The very last picture is of the birthday boy on his 30th Birthday while at the buffet in the hotel. Overall Vegas was fun, we found a casino that had $1 Margaritas and beer so we spent a lot of time there. We saw the Blue Man Group, Jay Leno and Fantasy, all of which were great. Definitely would like to go to Vegas again someday now that we know a little bit about what we can do and where we should stay and make it a few more days and save up a lot more money!!
