So I know this is a little late, but being on the road and working hard, I've been a little behind. For Easter weekend, I escaped the bus and hopped a flight to Vegas to spend the holiday with Dad and Carey. The sun was shining and the Blackjack tables were calling.

After a day of relaxing and winning $300 from a single $25 chip (thanks Red Rock Casino!), D & C surprised me on Easter Eve with tickets to the Criss Angel Cirque du Soleil. If you know me, you know I love magic as much as I love snowboarding, popcorn, and possibly my cat Jyme, so it's obvious i would be excited about seeing this fast-paced, goth inspired celebrity magic show. I ignored the disapproving quips of my bus-mates and skipped over the section of the wikipedia article that reads "The show opened to equally harsh reviews, citing a lack of the magic Angel is known for as well as a confusing and uninteresting theme." Oops. Maybe if i had been more willing to BELIEVE I'd have those 1.5 hours of my life back.

Since it was Rabbit themed, it seemed extra poignant.

These are our post-Believe faces. Sarcasm.

After the show we all agreed that it was the biggest waste of time in the History of Time. I was not excited by his tricks, nor amused by his lack of a 6-pack (aside from the 2 he drank before the 7:00 show). Boo Criss. You are stupid. At least I got to spend some quality MST3K commentary with the fam.

The next day Denny and I did what we love to do best since his move to Vegas last year: Play Tourist!

Went bowling (and scored free socks!)

The score was fun to fun.

We went to Paris!!!

Experience Freemont.

And last but not least, we got our picture taken with a MILLION DOLLARS! Then we won $20 of that Casino's million dollars and spent it on the stupidest movie ever.

Thanks for the great weekend guys! (...Believe)
