1. Surprise, surprise. Our little world that week revolved around hunting down the very best food we could find. We found out we are excellent hunters.
2. That ... and I found out I never knew half the stuff you're supposed to know when it comes to being sophisticated at fancy restaurants. Like, to stop wiping the table with my steamed towel -- it's for my hands.
3. They really do ask you to cut off your arm and hand it to them at the end of a taxi ride. Oh yes. Your arm and a large tip.4. The replica was not nearly as impressive after seeing the real thing. But bless its heart, the poor thing sure tried.
5. Breakfast in bed might be the best thing that's ever happened to me. I would also like to call attention to my dark eyeballs here. Somebody told me that if you left your eye makeup on at night after cleaning your face, you'd wake up looking like a rockstar.
I'd say zombie is slightly more accurate.
6. Couples hot stone massages are .... *slow drool*
7. Another surprise. No one knows how to work our camera. - so this is the only picture we got of us together the whole time.
8.Waiters who wear black and white have spoiled me. Sorry Applebee's. We're over.
9. And this little bitty salad sent me to the bathroom for a whole half hour. Pepper poisoning is real my friends. My body just invented it.
10. I made husband pose in front of Armani with his Armani. Also, I'm married to Zoolander.

yay for The Vegas.
You Had To Be There
Oh I miss Vegas! We used to live an hour and a half away...and obviously didn't take enough advantage of that!
Haha your hubs is so cute! Mine pulls that face all the time, THEN comments making sure EVERYONE knows he's trying to pull Blue Steel haha! (is Blue Steel even right? I don't love Zoolander so I didn't pay much attention ha)
LOL! You crack me up. Is that his "blue steel" look? :-D Sure looks that way!
Oh and I totally know what you mean... I never knew I was that clumsy at a dinner table until I was at the mother of all fancy restaurants. Twice. Dinner: So breathtaking. My demeanor: Made me want to go to charm school! Ugh.
Relatable Style
Brilliant! It looks like you had a fantastic time, and I can't wait to see what else you did while you were in Vegas :)
Aww, you guys are so cute! It looks like you had a great vacay! Happy three years! :)
LOVE Zoolander. looking beautiful as alway Sydney :) Glad you had a good trip!

That last shot and caption cracked me up. Looks like you had a great time! Weirdly, I got the best picture from my London trip when I let a waitress take a picture of my brother and me. She must have been a fancy photographer in her spare time because that picture rocked!
Haha sounds like a fun learning experience, and nothing could ever beat the Eiffel Tower after you've seen it! Looks like so much fun, enjoy the rest of your trip!

Love the recap.
I have the same problem when I ask people to use my camera. It really seems to confuse them that they have to look through the view finder.

A much deserved break, my friend.... much deserved break. Now back to the bat-cave! :D

great photos
Sydney it looked like you guys had such a blast! Isn't it nice just to get away and forget about school and work and all the craziness? When I went to Vegas for the first time I was puzzled why the waitresses in the casinos kept asking me if I wanted "diet pills" OH! They're saying "cocktails" hahahaha I was like "what kind of place is this???"
OK let's just take a moment and drool over those blue eyes. But seriously! That blue is intense!
Great Post! I love Vegas! I was just there and the weather was awful.:(

Adorable~! Missed you and so glad y'all had fun! :)
Awesome! I love Las Vegas! I really want to go for my next birthday!
That's weird that no one knew how to use your camera... Is it really that difficult? hehe
Looks like yall had fun! :)

What's better than having breakfast in bed! Great pictures. xo
The two of you are to adorable! So glad you enjoyed your vacation!
awesome pics, pretty lady!!!!
and that happens to me and ryan too - we hardly ever get pics of us when we're together cuz no one knows how to work my cam - so we have to get creative like you two!
i'm loving you without bangs, especially with that cutie braid.
Uuuuugh...Sydney. #3 is sooo true! I took my first taxi ride only a few weeks ago and I got sick sitting there, watching the meter. Absolutely ridiculous.
I love the picture of you getting room service. And you and your husband make a beautiful couple!
looks like a fun time! i loved vegas! and btw- my hubs and i have the same issue with our camera. it's takes so much time to explain to someone that you simply look through the hole, make sure we're in there, and then press the button! so hard, no? no.
Loving the pictures! And I'm especially loving your hair in the pepper poisoning picture. So cute!!
So fun! Vegas is one of my favorite places to visit. =) Glad you had a nice trip!
Love the photos! Looks like you had the most amazing time!!!!
http://thekeypieces.blogspot.com
Ugh pepper poising! But you look absolutely gorgeous with the braid of yours! Glad you're back!
xo L.
wow! that looks like such an awesome trip!!!
Love the pictures!!
Peppers can be dangerous!! My husband finds himself in predictaments all the time when he eats too many and then has PT at 6 the next morning (he's in the army) :P
love the post! i went to vegas for my senior trip, and really want to go back!!
you two are so cute! looks like a great trip! i hate how nobody can use my camera either!

Sydney, #7 made me smile. I shoot with an old pentaxk1000 - and it's crazy - on vacation I don't have a single picture with me in it! what did people do before point and shoot? Sounds like your vacation was lovely.
your vacation sounded awesome. travel tip: bring a tripod! haha :)
lovely pictures :) Vegas is such a cool place! love the last picture of your husband, he's so funny ^^ x
I'm glad you had fun in Vegas. We went there this weekend and had an entirely different experience. Ours was more backpacking through Vegas, slight homelessness and scaling freeway walls. I must agree on the taxi fares! One way to our hotel was $30! NUTS!
i love the pose of your husband in the last photo. definitely zoolander in-the-making!
cute & little
Looks like you guys had such a fun and relaxing get-away! I'm sooo beyond jealous of that message...not so much about that pepper poisoning though.
Lidi @ Eclectic Flair
looks like your trip was amazing! my husband & i always seek out great food on our vacations as well. xox
beautiful pictures!!
xoxo
I am going to Vegas in a few weeks, where are some of the places you ate?
I love all of these pictures! And I love how 7/10 were food related haha.. a girl after my own heart! And I hate not having anyone to take our pictures when we're on vacation..thats the only downside :(
What a great trip!! The photo of the two of you is priceless!! Where did you eat!?!?

Looks like an awesome trip! Totally relate to people not able to use your camera - it drives me crazy! And makes me sad I can barely ever get a great picture of me and my hubby together!
haha love the zoolander. looks like a fun trip and that food looks craaaaaaaazy good!!!
hahah. love this. <3
Ooohh i would LOVE a stone massage! Where I get my pedi's done here in Utah they do a hot stone massage to your calf! But wow, the whole body? Droolll...I can't even imagine :)

So glad you had a great vacay! love your pics.
So happy to have you back! You definitely had a blast I can tell, breakfast in bed is the best thing ever I feel you, and seems like food you had was delish!

Great pics, all that food looks so yummy! I really want to go back to Vegas now... :)
Haha! I always get frustrated when we have people take our picture, they're always blurry! You look amazing, by the way! Are you growing your bangs out? I'd love to see a tutorial for the way you have your hair in these pictures. I love it and I'm sure I'm not the only one! Glad you had so much fun!
amy day to day
Adorable!! Looks like you had a great trip - minus the pepper poisoning. What a pain. I LOVE breakfast in bed - so amazing and is WAY better than sitting at a table. Cute photo of you two, even though it was the only one hehe. You are so beautiful! Glad to see you're back! xo
Love this! You tell such great stories with your pictures! None of my vegas photos have ever looked this good!
Loved your post. It was funny. Love the photos! I had no idea you went to Vegas! Awesome.
Your hubby is funny.
Glad you guys had a great time!!
I live here in Vegas, and I do have to say that it is the greatest city to live in. I love it here! So glad you came down to visit and had an enjoyable time.
Looks like such an amazing time! Stone crab, massages, breakfast in bed! Take me away now, but minus the pepper poisoning :)
I always love a good trip to Vegas! Problem is that it's only a 4 1/2 hour drive, so my hubs and I probably go at least 2-3 times a year!
looks like a great trip! i love your zoolander comment, so funny!
You were in vegas? I live in vegas! I love it here.
though confession, when you live here going down to the strip is not nearly as cool or fun.
glad you had a good time in my lovely city!
Isn't Vegas crazy? The first time we took a taxi ride there was DEFINITELY our last. The short ride was so expensive. Plus, due to traffic, we could have walked to our destination and arrived in a more timely manner than that cab! The Vegas Eiffel Tower sure is a trooper. I like to call it "Mini Me." Any ways. I hope you had fun!
You ARE married to Zoolander! I knew it.
Vegas is definitely supposed to have amazing food! Really really good! I'm dying to go :)
Love! Looks like so much fun. I'm glad you're back, no one can blog on your blog like you can.

Looks like ya'll had a blast! Minus the pepper poisoning!?!?! Such a rad couple you too make.
Blue Steel! I love it!
Awesome shots!! Looks like you had a lot of fun :)

Love Vegas! -Just not having to avert our eyes all of the time:) Guess the taxi would help with that -too bad they charge a butt and a leg
Vegas fooooooood. Yummmmmmmm. Breakfast in Paris -the.best.

you are so adorable! the breakfast in bed picture is my fav. seriously.
Aw so sorry to hear that no one was able to take pictures of the two of you. At least you guys have some great memories! :]
Just Better Together
Vegas sounds so fun, but I've never been. Also, I love your red pants! Where are they from?
http://ofseedsandthorns.blogspot.com/
Vegas has some A+ mazing food. My husband also likes to impersonate Zoolander when he catches me taking his photo. Next time it's going on the blog...
Vegas is so fun! I loved growing up there and now I love going back to visit!
Aww... Sad that was the only pic of you and the husband! :( it's so hard having a stranger try to take a pic with a dslr. It never comes out well! Hahaha. You crack me up...with the steamed towel.
Breakfast in bed!!! I love hotels for that reason alone. So frustrating about the camera- I always hate not getting decent pics of me and my young man. even if we can find someone to take a picture for us, it is normally too awkward to be nice!
I hope you've had a great time and don't get the post-holiday blues

how fun! I'll be there tomorrow :)
Great things you learned! Thanks for sharing! Love the photos as well.

Wow you make me want to go on vacation to Vegas... and see CELINE!!! Glad you're back! -Kate
I am muy jealous! Vegas sounds like fun, and the foodpictures look amazing. Also, you need to tell your husband to stop being so precious because he's quite distracting.
what a great way to spend your anniversary with one another! We are celebrating our 3 years in June, so these are great ideas!!!
even if that salad made you feel sick you sure look pretty eating it.
Your make up is banging girl! This post makes me hungry!
Those pictures are great! So is Vegas! Looks like you two had an amazing time!

Sooo I'm totally late to the comment game on this one, but I have to ask...so I hope you scroll down this far to read this quest-chee-ano.
What restaurants did you eat at in Vegas?! I'm going in a few weeks and the club scene there is not my thing but BOMB meals are. So let me know what you recommend please and thanks!
And I think the Zoolander pose is like engrained in every man's brain. My boyfriend does this often. Far. To. Often. Sheesh. xo pretty lady!
that breakfast in bed looks like heaven. the whole trip does actually. lucky you.
I can't tell if those stairs are at the Mirage or the Luxor or Treasure Island... lived in Vegas for 21 years, you'd think I knew!
Thanks for gracing our crazy town with your classy self.
You know you could have called me to be your personal photographer...lol..just kidding! but the pictures are wonderful...oh Vegas! hehehee
You don't know my number, but you could have called me to drive you around Vegas! Then you would still have 2 arms! I live in Vegas, but I stalk your blog on a daily basis. Love it!!!
Awh it sounds like y'all had a good time! So jealous! I cannot wait to visit Vegas one day!
I need to vacation to Vegas very soon! Y'all looked like you had a great time! I'm super jealous. Cute pictures!

Love the necklaces
I just saw the Ruche FB album...congrats on reaching 5000 followers and for getting to do a special photoshoot with Ruche!! How awesome!
Ha ha!!!!!! Blue Steele! Atta boy Tys. That seriously made me laugh.
Those pictures are amazing! The food looks great :) <3
YOU are DARLING!! I can't believe I have never seen your blog? Seriously, what is the matter with me ?? I found you on Ruche and boy am I happy I did :)
great photos! im going to vegas next weekend and i can't wait!!
Every time I go to Vegas I gain at least 5 lbs, and every time I say "NEVER AGAIN" but everything is soooooo good!

So happy you guys had a great time!
I live in Vegas, it's awesome.
Even though I've actually never had to stay in a hotel..
LOVE that pic of the two of you in the mirror. I always set my camera up and tell the people to stand right where I am standing and don't tough anything else but the shutter button and it seems to work out for me;)
i went there in october for my honeymoon and hunted food also. tell me you had the burger at bradley ogden. the best burger of my life. still dreaming about it and the brown sugar banana pancake at hash house a go go! glad you had fun.
great photos so adorable love what you wore!

Weird coincidence... I just got back from Vegas today (I'm catching up on all my favourite blogs right now). I see you liked Joe's too. It was the only restaurant there that I really liked; I think you guys were much better at finding good food than I was. The Bellagio fountains were one of my favourite parts of the trip... in a word, magical.
That looks so great! That's definitely something I want to look into doing. :) mobile makeup artist Sydney
