Some of you may know that Jeff has been working in Las Vegas for the past month or so. My mom had some construction projects that she hired Jeff for, and while he's been there, others have offered him work also. This has been such a blessing! With the economy the way that it is, we are so grateful for any work that he gets!
Anyway, I've been saving up some money for a little getaway for Jeff and I, in honor of our birthdays and our 18th anniversary. And with Jeff staying at my mom's, this presented a great opportunity for me to surprise him. Our niece, Jordan, came and stayed with the kids, and I went to Las Vegas and had a great weekend with Jeff!
Mostly we just hung out and wandered around. I was even able to sneak away with my mom for a bit for some shopping and lunch, too!
This is Jeff reclining in, and I quote:
"Only the most luxurious fishing pontoon boat ever!"

But the big event was Saturday night...
I saw Phantom when I was 17, and "All I Ask of You" was our wedding song. Ever since then, I had always wanted Jeff to be able to see it. So, when I was able to get really good tickets for a great price, I jumped at the chance! Really, I have my dad to thank...it was the Christmas money he gave to Jeff and I!!! It was really fun to finally share this with Jeff and it was every bit as good, if not better, than I remembered it!
We were also able to meet up with my bestest friend Julie, who was also in Vegas celebrating her mom's birthday! We went to breakfast at this restaurant called the Hash House, where every portion is the size of Montana
and they make the most ginormous pancakes that you have ever seen!
