Chapter 1: The Plan

It's July! Warren and I were sitting outside enjoying the beautiful summer that Alaska was presenting to us, when he turns to me and tells me how exciting it'd be to go to Vegas around his birthday in mid-august. 

Now, me being me and having stuff pre-planned so far ahead of time, I already had August packed full with the OAR concert, working at the Fair with KTUU(the news station is work at), our first trip to Valdez, and camping trip and a fishing trip and praying we'd be able to go shrimp fishing out in Prince William Sound. Thinking about the Vegas trip put my mind into overdrive.

 I knew if I was going to give up the gorgeous, warm summer that everyone, but me was bitching about how hot it was, I was going to be heading home to show him the Minnesota State fair... And how you can truly get everything you could want... On a stick! Needless to say, moving our date to September wasn't as hard as I had thought it was going to be. 

See all I had to do was put a little bug in some ears. My coworker/friends birthday is September 20, my mom wants to see Vegas, Me and My middle sister spend most mornings g-mail chatting at work... Three whispers later we were booked for Vegas. 

Tickets, check! Hotels,(four of them to be exact) check! Now to sit on Groupon, or Poop-on as I call them since they are literally my biggest competition being that my major job at KTUU is to build deals that are in the similar format as Groupon. I felt guilty everything I hit buy.... But complete tours, including the bus ride to see the Hoover dam for $40 a person seemed on real. Being able to throw confetti off the top and watch it flutter down is just the icing on the cake! 

Next to come is the pack...
