A Very Vegas Christmas

Hey Everyone! 

It is New Year's Eve day, so there is still time for me to squeeze in one last blog post for 2024. I'm feeling lazy, so this will be more photos than narrative. Enjoy at your leisure.

First - here are some pics from our Thanksgiving visit.

What a handsome group! 

And a rare Callihan family photo...

The Nightmare before Christmas

Burrito the alien cat

Hanging at Matty's place

And Dave and Jenn Beer stopped by to visit!

Once we got back home, we decorated for Christmas and, I must mention for posterity, again won the neighborhood golf cart parade.

Boo got an outfit

This is the little craft project I was telling Mom and Dad about.

GOLF CART TIME!

Glenn also decorated the cul-de-sac island for our Christmas party.

Other notable neighborhood decorations include the Christmas crabs...

And a Rudolph as big as a house...

Ok...so, on to Vegas. As mentioned previously, Glenn's stupid Android phone died like two days in and we lost a lot of our pictures, so this is the best we can do.

Aria's lobby

We got upgraded to an amazing corner suite with an awesome view.

Not bad, eh?

Ok - so the second night, we went out with Matty and Julie to Casa Playa in the Wynn Resort - a delicious and beautiful Mexican restaurant.

We shared an amazing Choco Taco for dessert, which was gluten free! 

I think it was Day 3 that we walked over to the Bellagio to see their Christmas decorations, which did not disappoint.

And now, for some whimsical pics from Pat and Lori's house, where we had a fun little Christmas party.

And well, that's about it. I mean. We did a lot more things, but they don't let you take pics at the gambling tables.

Here's a quick rundown of some other new/cute/miscellaneous things.

I got a new decal for my car.

We got new sliding glass doors while we were away...

We found and rescued a perfectly healthy possum.

Glenn got me this beautiful necklace in Canmore and smuggled it home to give to me for Christmas. 

And Eddie got socks which he immediately destroyed after this picture.

So, I guess that's about it. Love you guys and Happy New Year!
