Vegas, baby!

After checking out the forecast for Kansas City (only in the 50s, maybe low 60s for the near future) I decided that it didn't qualify as warm or sunny enough to get me out of here. So after finding a great deal ($308 per person for airfare from Des Moines and 3 nights, 3-star hotel) I was able to talk D into going to Vegas, baby. It's really the cheapest sunny place we can get to from here. Really I don't mind if we hardly see any attractions, I could be happy just sitting by the pool and soaking up some sun. Of course, we may have to check on discounted tickets to shows, especially being there during the week and (hopefully) somewhat off-peak since our break is really late this year. Regardless, it will be nice to be in a place where I don't have to have long underwear under my pants every day to keep warm. Seriously, people, enough is enough.

The thought of 80 degrees and sunshine is the only thing getting me through this week of school. We are going to have more rain/snow and 40 degree weather this week. No matter when break is, the kids are squirrely the week before.
