Running with the Bulls Part 2!

Running with the Bulls!

Pamplona- 2010

Vegas Baby!

Whoever said whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas- obviously that person didn’t have an audience to entertain!

Smooth sailing to Sin City where we found ourselves at the Mirage. It really was there! We threw our bags in the room and hit the Black Jack tables as well as Roulette. As Meg racked up her Roulette winnings after I explained it to her that it’s a terrible game she won on the first spins and I was left wondering Who Let the Dogs Out?!

Friday brought us to the Hilton Grand Vacations situated right behind the Flamingo where we set up our HQ for the weekend. We made sure to make the customary stops at the MGM Lion Habitat, the Bellagio Fountains and of course M&M World. The rest of the weekend can be summed up rather quickly;

Eat, gamble, eat, gamble, party sleep

Eat, gamble, eat, gamble, party sleep

Eat gamble, eat, get married, party….WHAT UP- YEAH THAT JUST HAPPENED…Got Married! Then gambled, eat, sleep.

Thankstmas

Santa's newest elf!

Thankstmas took M&Em south of the border this November to a slightly warmer climate. After the usual overnight, 8-hour dirve to Bluffton where M&Em were aided by two cokes, 2 starbucks coffees, animal crackers, cowtales and a partridge and a pear tree, M&Em arrived fresh and ready to go the morning of Thankstmas.

After a short nap, the family gathered to prepare Thanksgiving dinner. By the afternoon, everyone was enjoying the feast- completed with a Cowboys win and a Giants loss! Between eating breaks, the family played a new game, Apples to Apples while Greg sat in the middle of the game (the middle of the table).

Em the last to go to bed before the women in the house prepared for midnight shopping at the outlet- kickstarting Black Friday! Meg came home at 2AM, shopping bags in hand for a quick 2 hour nap before M&Em headed out to face the Target, Best Buy and Walmart lines.

Several hours of shopping later, M&Em headed back home for another nap before embarking on a journey to the Savannah Mall. Black Friday was again exciting, successful and exhausting for M&Em but not too exhausting that they couldn’t celebrate Christmas later that night with the family!

The rest of the weekend was spent resting and relaxing before heading back to VA! The normal 8-hour drive unfortunately took close to 13- thanks to all the normal holiday traffic. Looks like next year M&Em will leave at 4AM instead of 6!

What's a Hilltopper?!?

Nuff said.

Is it just me or is it sunny out?

Those left standing.

Our next travels brought us to Annapolis for our first Navy tailgate. It was cold and rainy but Navy alum sure know how to put on a stellar tailgate (although, it's no PSU tailgate :). We were ready for the Midshipmen to take on the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers but Meg and the girls had other plans.

The drinking began around 11am - by the end of the night Navy had run all over the Hilltoppers but only Em knew that - out of the group of 20, he was the only one to make it into the game - rain and all. The others decided to stay warm, huddled around the keg.

The night was a blast with lots of memories. Of course being in the DC region, political fights arose, Meg raved with make-believe glow sticks and Em enjoyed the game. Overall it was another fun travel for M&Em.
