On September 22nd, I flew to Vegas for a weekend of shopping, scrapbooking and eating with my mom and Tomi. They picked me up from the airport and we went to the Burger Bar for lunch, then we went to the Vegas outlets for some shopping. Then we drove to State Line so we could explore the Williams-Sonoma outlet. We went to a few other outlets before heading to the hotel to check in. All the shopping was exchausting and we couldn't help but laugh at the jam-packed car. We checked into the hotel, grabbed some dinner, then went to bed.
The next day, we had our first day of classes. We got SO much done and learned a lot too. That night we went to the steak house for dinner before heading back for the evening crop. On Saturday, we had another full day of classes. That night we grabbed dinner at the sushi restaurant before going to the closing presentation. They had an inspirational speaker, she was a young girl who had gastric bypass surgery because she was overweight and spent years suffering (and almost died) because her surgery had been done incorrectly. She was on Opera numerous times and was even on her final season as one of Oprah's most memorable guests) and gave out prizes. The whole experience was really fun. We definitely left feeling inspired. We met a lot of wonderful people, learned a ton, and had a fabulous time.
On Sunday, we had breakfast at the Pancake House, then spent the morning at the spa before heading back home. It was a great end to a wonderful weekend. We can't wait to come back next year. :)
