We were SPOILED by Brandon's work this week. We were able to stay in a hotel that I just love but will never EVER be able to afford, so thank goodness for business trips!! Brandon had to go to a construction expo and I was able to join him. We stayed at Caesar's Palace, it was awesome! The night we got there we were able to go to a event which was centered around NASCAR, Brandon lives for NASCAR. It was really fun in there. The next day Brandon went to the expo and I played at the pool and studied for a test. That night we went to to dinner at Ruth's Chris which I LOVE more than anything. Brandon was given tickets to Foreigner that night which is a band that my mother listened to, but they were incredible!! For those of you that need a reminder who they are (I needed one) they sing: Your as cold as ice...We woke up early Thursday morning and headed back to stormy Utah, it was really so much fun, I love going on adventures!!
I love the moments in life where you feel like you are in a movie (sounds silly, I know) and I got to experience it in the SLC airport. We left on Tuesday, it was 1:00 our flight was at 1:50 everything was great we were so excited just as the shuttle dropped us off at the terminal my wonderful husband realized he forgot his laptop at home which had every ticket we needed to get into events in Vegas (lovely) well he left me at the terminal and ran about a mile to the car. We live by the airport so it was possible for this all to work out...well I am sitting in the terminal waiting for what felt like days. I went and talked to the flight person and she told me they hand out stand by tickets at 1:40, well at this time it was 1:25. I called Brandon and he was on his way back...it is now 1:33 and Brandon comes in EXHAUSTED from his work out, we run check in our luggage (which had a huge LATE check in and was probably not going to make the flight) get our boarding pass and the lady says "It is the farthest gate, about a 8 min walk (we still had to go through security) officially the race was on. We booked it through the airport, through security, up the escalators, all the way to the farthest gate in the airport. We got to the gate boarded, right when we sat down the flight left...it was crazy and I never want to do that again. On top of it we flew Southwest so I sat in the middle of two men, one who was overlapping the seat and the other had his legs so spread out...The awesome thing, our luggage made it as well, Vegas was already lucky:)

Looks fun Meghan, you are lucky you went with him. I hated that buisness trip eric went on, i was alone for 4 days, i so wished i would have gone.
Geeze lucky you! Maybe I should talk Corey into getting a job with great perks like that!! Hope you guys are doing well! We'll have to get together sometime! (And we'll actually do something fun - not just have you guys drive us to provo!! Which once again thank you!)
That would be so fun just to have it paid for! I love it.
