Anniversary Staycation 3

 Friday morning we woke up a little after 8am which for us is sleeping in. It was so nice to just be able to wake up on our own. We had no idea what time it was because we couldn't see any light through the black out shades in the room and in true Las Vegas style the room did not have a clock. It was so nice though!

We got breakfast downstairs in Eataly which is a restaurant area and shopping area in the casino. It was very nice and the food was great but it was a bit pricey. After breakfast we headed to Mandalay Bay and went to the Shark Reef Aquarium. We had never been here before. It was fun and we love aquariums and zoos but this one was a bit small for the price. Still cool to see though. 
















































I love lion fish!

















Then we went to the Disney Store and bought some shirts and presents for the boys while we tried not to buy everything in sight. Then we also took a trip to Target and did some shopping for Easter before we had lunch back at Eataly. 

I spent the afternoon at the Salon and Spa for a little pampering. I got a massage which felt so good and I also got a haircut. It was awesome and my stylist was the best! I didn't want my time there to end!

After my pampering we watched one of our favorite movies- Alexander and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day and then we went to Cheesecake Factory for dinner. It was so yummy. I had a chicken parmesan sandwich that was perfect and mike got the trio of pasta which he said was great! We also got cheesecake for dessert to eat back at the hotel. 



Another awesome day spent with Mike! We're chained together birds! (watch Rio if you want to get the reference :)

Anniversary Staycation 4

 Saturday was our last day out of the house. It was an awesome day! We crossed somethings off our bucket lists :) We even wore our new Disney shirts!


We woke up late again and lounged around in bed like we never get to do and then we checked out and went to Speed Vegas to drive sports cars!



Mike went first with the instructor Todd in the Supra. He did 3 laps and his top speed was 120mph!











I did 3 laps in the Lamborghini. I did 1 with my instructor Todd driving and I drove 2. We got up to 148 mph! It was so much fun! The Lamborghini is my favorite sports car and I've wanted to drive one for a long time! Bucket list- check!











We ended our staycation with a hike in Sloane Canyon. 





It was a perfect vacation! We had so much fun and it was so nice to be able to relax!
