We took the bus trip to Atlantic City today with Adam and Jen and couldn't have asked for a better day. We arrived at Trump Plaza around 11:30, played some blackjack, and then had lunch at Longhorn Steakhouse. After that, we gorged on some candy from 'It's Sugar' and then played a little more craps and blackjack. We had such a good time in AC and can't wait until our Vegas trip in May!

Ultrasound photo of the little fetus. The doctor said he/she was moving around quite a bit so it was amazing to see! 
We are so excited for this wonderful time in our life. We will keep you posted as we have additional updates!!

Birthday candle on top of bite size cheesecake, brownies, bananas, strawberries, marshmallows - you name it! Much better than a birthday cake!
On the first night, we went to our favorite buffet at Mandalay Bay. As you can tell from the pictures below, we definitely enjoyed ourselves! There were crab legs, shrimp and all the desserts you could ask for!

The next day, we went to the Bellagio for their breakfast buffet and I did a little shopping at the Caesar's forum shops while Dave bet on the football games.

Beautiful view of the Las Vegas strip from the Luxor
On the last night, we went to see David Copperfield at the MGM Grand. I saw him many times when I was younger so I was really looking forward to seeing his Las Vegas show. While we were waiting for the show to start, they asked if I would be willing to participate in the show. I couldn't believe it and of course I said "yes." I was soooo excited that I could barely contain myself. During the show, David Copperfield selected me from the audience and I got to go on stage with him. He placed a paper butterfly on my shoulder and made it turn into a real butterfly right before my eyes. It was amazing and a once in a lifetime experience that I will never forget. We weren't able to bring cameras into the theater, but here are some pictures outside of the theater.
Thank you to my husband for the best 30th birthday ever! I will never forget it!
My niece, Alice, and I - she is getting cuter and cuter by the day!!!

Since my family is so big, my grandma rents out a bed and breakfast to have our Christmas dinner at each year. It's so nice and the food is wonderful! 
OH MY - Look at that dessert table!! It sure is a good thing I ran that morning because I went in for the kill! 
My cousin's son, Bradley. He is the best baby ever. I don't think I heard him cry once the whole time we were at dinner.
My cousin, Megan, and I. It was so fun seeing her and her family. I miss her so much and wish we got to see each other more.
My Aunt Nancy and I. She got me the cutest Juicy Couture shoe charm. 
It was another wonderful Christmas with the family! The only missing links were my hubby and puppy. Dave had to work on Christmas, but I felt good knowing that he and the dog were keeping each other company. Dave even prepared a Christmas meal for himself and Sampson when he got home from work. They enjoyed ham, stuffing, and all the trimmings. That's right - the dog got an entire plate too!! Just like Thanksgiving, dogs need a Christmas dinner too. :-)
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!
