Super Bowl & Vegas

Wow...it's been a crazy week! The night before my Sales Conference in Vegas we watch the Super Bowl with Adam and Carissa.  Carissa now works with me at Remington so we were preparing for our trip to Vegas as we watched the game.  We also had Harper's 1 year pictures that day.  It was a very busy weekend...

My Sales Conference in Vegas was my first extended time away from Harper.  It was hard to say goodbye to my little princess.  I prepared Scott and left mini surprises throughout the house while I was away.  I think my hard work paid off and they were pleasantly surprised and happy while I was away.  My Sales Conference was LONG with meetings everyday from 8-5 and then events at night.  I'm still exhausted from the trip....
We stayed at the Venetian/Palazzo hotel.  It was beautiful.  We had awesome suites.  My room had 3 TV's. I managed to watch the TODAY show all 3 TV's in the morning :)

 Harper called me to FaceTime.  She was so cute and wanted to touch my face through the phone.  I missed her like crazy! 
 We went to a Country bar and I was feeling courageous and rode the mechanical bull (voluntarily).  Little did I know that the CEO and VP of Sales would be watching.  They dared 10 Remington girls to ride the bull after I did it.  We gathered a group of girls and they paid us $200 each to ride the bull.  That means I rode the bull TWICE! Not a bad dare and reward ;)

 My travels home were a little rough.  What do you expect in Wisconsin in the month of February? I had to drive home from Milwaukee in a snow storm.  I went 35 MPH the entire way home and unfortunately I was running on ONE hour of sleep.  Scott made me a LATE dinner and then I went to bed when I got home.  Sadly Harper wasn't able to stay awake for my arrival.  
Snuggling with my baby girl the next day.  I missed her!

Lesson learned - I'm not 21 anymore!
