We spent a most fabulous weekend in Las Vegas for my big 35! It was so much fun, and we saw so many wonderful things. The highlights of our trip were all nature related, and here is one of many highlights, watching tigers play at the Secret Garden at The Mirage. Of course, even bigger than that was watching the dolphins! I have video of that too (just needs a bit of editing).
Not only was it great to get away on a real vacation with my husband, but it was awesome to cross of one of my 101 items in the process. I’ll be sharing more from our trip soon. Stay tuned!
I turn 35 this Thursday! I can hardly believe it! I certainly don’t feel like I should be in my thirties, let alone 35! In my mind I feel much younger, but I hear that is how it is for everyone.
Just for fun, here is my birthday wish list. I know some are a bit “out there” budget wise, but it never hurts to put it out there!
A mix CD with your favorite songs and/or songs that remind you of times we spent together.
This photo has nothing to do with turning 35, but I found it funny. It was on a mini-golf course that we tried to play on last week. I say try, because although this photo looks nice, a few seconds after I took it, the rain started and it got very windy.
The first roses of 2010 (photo taken June 6). Notice that there is still snow on the mountains in the background? Yep, June in the Rockies is quite the mix of weather.
We went to a Scottish Festival on Friday night. It was a lot of fun, and it was also very cold! We have been having rain, and 50 degree weather, despite the fact that it’s JUNE! As you can see, this merry group of kilts and bagpipes are getting all wet.
Also, we got some treats that they don’t sell here in the states. Why we don’t get to have things like this in our regular shops I will never know, but Nestle, start selling Aero here in America please!! This is the mint version and it is so very tasty.
There was also a very fun concert from a group called the Wicked Tinkers. They rocked! It was really high energy and fun, even if we were totally freezing cold. We even had our winter coats on for heavens sake! Because it was cold and raining, a lot of the shops weren’t open and we didn’t see any Highland games either. We did have some fish and chips though! And no, we did not eat haggis.
Nothing like a fun hike in the canyon with my hubby! These wildflowers were growing all over the place. Not sure what they are called. It’s such a gorgeous time of year, everything is still green. Soon it will all turn brown because of the heat, but for now, the mountains are putting on quiet a good show.
Living happily ever after with my handsome hubby, our adorable pets, and our ever growing flock of pink flamingos. Trying to squeeze every juicy bit of nectar from this beautiful life.
