Las Vegas: The down low

My trip to Vegas with the fam for Christmas was a lot of fun.  It was great visiting a place that gets so much hype.  I don't think I'll put it on my radar for future vacations, but I am glad I got to experience it.  And the family time and bonding were priceless...that is what truly made the trip!

In general, the food rocked.  Hofbrauhaus, Lindo Michoacan, and the Bacchanal Buffet at Caesar’s Palace all get an A+.  Great food and atmosphere at all three places.  I am not a huge fan of the old fashion dine in casino’s.  We hit up one of those the first night and after that, we sought out places off of the strip, with the exception of the buffet.

I tried to get in a workout everyday, whether by hiking or hitting up the gym at the Time share. I made sure to hit up the hot tub, and get some good relaxation time.  

Here's a few pics from our trip:

Planking away...

In an effort to sway those holiday pounds to join somebody else's behind, I have been planking away this past week!

I love posting my pics to Instagram and hash-tagging the online communities participating in this challenge.  It adds a flare of motivation and seeing everyone else's numbers encourages me to push harder and hold my plank longer!  If you haven't been planking, join in!  It's never too late to join the party!
