this past weekend kevin's parents flew kevin and i down to vegas to spend a couple days with them to celebrate my birthday. it was a lot of fun. the perfect mix of partying and relaxation. they always spoil us whenever we visit. on Friday night (my birthday), they took us out to via brasil. the restaurant is unique in that it brings 18 different kinds of meats to you at your table, one by one, and allows you to have a slice or two of whichever you'd like! definitely a dining experience... it was delicious. even better than i remember it from the first time we went. after dinner, we went back to their place and had homemade carrot cake--it was delicous! i really really need to learn how to cook!
for my birthday, karen and tim gave me a beautiful framed photo of me on our wedding day. it was such a special and thoughtful gift. as of yesterday, it now hangs in our hallway! it's the perfect addition to our home!
saturday we watched the osu game and hung out at home. kevin and i hit up the strip that night. we just like to watch all the crazies and spend time in the chaos of the city. we don't really gamble and we weren't really drinking. just enjoying the nice warm weather! we also hit up in-n-out. that place always attracts weird people, too. we bought a double-double meal for a bum, complete with animal style fries! he LOVED it. ahhh, the joys of in-n-out!
i think it was on sunday that kevin and i went to see The Invention of Lying. it was a pretty good movie. pretty much all the funny parts were already shown in the previews. the humor was very dry. overall, the movie had a good moral. it's definitely only worth a rental. after the movie, we went out to sushi with karen and tim. vegas always has the best sushi. i hadn't had any in a while so it was great! it was a really fun dinner full of laughs and great food.
overall, i'd say our trip to vegas was a success. we're so lucky and spoiled to get to go again over thanksgiving! gobble, gobble...
