This year, Alex and I are both turning 30. We decided last year when we were still expecting Kaitlyn that we were going to go to Vegas with our best friends, Chad and Jenny to celebrate and leave Kaitlyn with my parents to babysit. It would probably be the first time that we had left her alone for any significant amount of time, and I had anticipated it being one of those "mom moments" where you realize that you need to be a wife first and a mom second.
I didn't know if I was going to want to go to Vegas now that Kaitlyn was gone, but it turned out to be a really great distraction from the August blues I had been experiencing. We stayed in a fancy hotel and ended up seeing a couple of shows.
Our birthday dinner ended up being at the "Top of the World" restaurant on the north end of the strip. It's one of those revolving restaurants that gives you a view of everything around Vegas, including all the houses that make you realize that people actually live in Vegas and don't just come there to visit.

We ended up going to see the Cirque du Soleil tribute to Michael Jackson, who is one of my favorite artists of all time. At the end, they had a hologram of Michael that the performers danced with, and it was pretty phenomenal that they could make it look like he was actually there with us.
