I am back (finally)

Vegas was awesome!  Our flight home on Sunday was canceled.  At first, I was super worried and anxious but then mr. eagles texted me and said "you need to stop worrying and have more drinks".  So then I just relaxed and went with it - I mean, there are certainly worse places to be stuck

We got a room for Sunday night and flights for Monday.  Except we had to fly from LV to DFW to Charlotte to Allentown.  We were completely dreading it, but it actually turned out ok.  The most annoying thing was listening to everyone biitch, as if the airlines were just trying to eff with them.  Um hello knuckleheads, thousands of flights on the east coast were canceled

So we finally got home late Monday night and we have no power.  It just came back on last night.  I am going through my fridge/freezer tossing just about everything and scrubbing it :(

Mr. eagles was amazing.  He said even with all the issues (storm, no power etc) he had such a great time with the kids.  He actually encouraged me to do it again.  He said "I know it's not the same as what you do, because you do all the household stuff, so I don't want you to think that I think what you do is easy".  I love that man

Our trip was amazeballs.  Lots of lounging by the pool, nice dinners, lots of drinks and laughs with awesome friends.  I did a zipline across Fremont St on the old strip that was so fun.  Everyone on my FB hates me because while they were dealing with Irene, I was posting pics of us drinking at the pool

Re: I am back (finally)

  • Glad you had a good time.

    K is so sweet.  You're lucky to have him.

    I was keeping up with your airport adventures on fb.  When I saw LV, I was like what!!!

  • Excellent!  Glad you had a great time and it sounds like you had a pretty great attitude about the flights home (which makes a huge diff!).  Your hubs sounds like a rockstar.
  • so jealous! looks like you had a great time.

    I appreciated the diversion from the hurricane updates (to which I was also guilty of contributing).

    LOL Mr. Eagles is like husband/dad of the year. Whenever I see him with Charlie & Sam he is so awesome. Even when we had a gtg at the Eagles household, he was upstairs in the playroom with all the little ones while us ladies stuffed our faces :o) If I wasn't already married, I'd be asking if he had a brother. haha

    Glad you had a great time! I was also super jealous of your updates.I wished I was there!
