Running Away to Reno!

Michelle Cole and I got convinced by our men to drive from Utah and Idaho to the Northwest corner of Nevada. We left around 11am on Friday July 8th from Pocatello to Reno and got to learn a lot about each other and build a friendship. It was nice to finely meet someone that had their significant other in Reno. On the drive to Reno, we were stopped for nearly an hour and a half for three different reasons (2 construction stops and a freak helicopter landing on the highway). We finally got to Reno and still had to wait nearly five hours to see our guys. We made them dinner of artichoke, chicken, Alfredo pasta with some corn. I think the boys like because we had no leftovers. We just went to bed after that because the boys were exhausted.

Saturday, everyone woke up at 8:30am to get the boys out the door for work and then Michelle and I went back to bed til 11:30am. After that her and I got ready for the day and went out to go shopping ish. I got to spend some money from the wedding presents at Target to get things from around the house such as a skillet, glasses, bowls and containers. Then we were off to Ulta for eyebrow pencils and DSW for none other than shoes :). Finally we ended our time by going to get pedicures at a place called HongKong Nail. Well lets just say when its called that it means run from the creepy man. And lets just say the pedicure was not the greatest either.

After that we finally got back to the apartment at about 7pm and waited around to see the boys. Finally got bored of just sitting around and watched Grown Ups. Around 9pm the boys come home and we convince them to get dressed and go out with us. We went to Mexican Restaurant and to the Atlantis Casino for the night. And guess what the Casino was good for everyone, Andrew and I did well and also watched a couple of people make thousands of dollars on the craps table.


All the food we had at the Mexican place for 4 people!



Sunday was a fun adventure but a sad one at that. The boys found out that they had to leave today and were not able to stay the  night. So in order to enjoy our last day with the boys we went to the water park. The boys left for Eureka later that evening about 9pm and got in to California that morning at 5am. Michelle and I left for home Monday at 10am.

It was a good weekend but one I bet all of us wished was longer!
