Six years and counting...

This year our anniversary happened to be on the same day that John was moving our stuff across the country so he decided to surprise me a week early with an awesome anniversary celebration! He arranged plans for his parents to watch Bentley and then we headed to the strip for an overnight stay at the Paris hotel! As soon as we got checked into the hotel we headed over to the Eiffel Tower for one of the most amazing dinners that I've ever had. I think we had a true frenchman as our waiter and the service was incredible. We really needed a translator for most of the items on the menu, but we managed to choose some incredible dishes just by picking up on a few keywords. We had so much fun enjoying our fancy dinner!


(yes, that's written in chocolate)

After dinner we headed back to the hotel to change and I decided I needed a belly shot for this pregnancy (hence, the 14 week belly photo thrown into this post). Then we headed out to the strip to walk around and watch the Bellagio Fountains one last time. We topped the night off with an enormous dessert crepe that left both of us feeling a little sick from all of the food that we had stuffed ourselves with that evening. Totally worth it though!




During our duration here in Las Vegas we really haven't spent a whole lot of time down on the strip. While I won't miss too many things about the strip, there are some really neat attractions at the various hotels and there are certainly a select few people that I will miss bumping into. We ran into all of these celebrities on our way to watch the water show:

Also, a big shout out to John's best friend (and his family) who made this night possible for us. They generously sponsored this night as a graduation gift to John. We will really miss them and are so grateful for all that they have done for us throughout our marriage!

That sounds like a great anniversary! I'm still sad we never got to visit you in Vegas...maybe New Orleans.
