So this past weekend, we headed out to Las Vegas with Steven and Stephanie for a mini vacay at their timeshare...(beautiful place) I know you are thinking 'Who drives to Vegas on a FRIDAY of a holiday weekend,,,,Tommy, Malina and I do....(Steven and Stephanie left the night before...smart people)
I packed healthy snacks for the ride.....and off we went....the drive was not too too bad.

| Steven, Malina and Stephanie...Our Hosts |

| Malina LOVES her Uncle Tommy |
When we finally arrived , they were waiting for you to go to dinner. We headed to "Dick's The Last Resort"...now its a little hard when there is not a lighter side on the menu, so that when you know you have to be smart and make good choices...plus if you eat lite all day and still majority of points left for dinner, than it's all good....
 |
| Grilled Turkey Wrap with French Fries |
 |
| BBQ Pork Ribs, Baked Beans and Mac & Cheese |
Now french fries, as we know are not point friendly...but only having a few (and giving the rest to Malina) is okay and will satisfy that taste you have for them. These were my first fries in 6 months. Oh how I missed them...but my taste had been satisfied...so I am good for at least another 6 months...LOL
We actually had a very full and FUN weekend; did a little bit of everything...we walked down The Fremont Experience, we watched Steven and Crystal do the ZIPLINE, we watched softball games, we ate sushi, we waked some more, we had dinner at PF CHANGS, took Malina to Circus Circus, we shopped, we did some sight seeing (there is more to Vegas than gambling), we relaxed b the pool, and so much more....all and all is was a good get away. We love going on vacays with the OTHER Mr & Mrs Fraijo and family....

On Sunday morning Tommy and I had a little alone time and did some fun stuff. W had an amazing breakfast at Harrah's Flavors Buffet....did some walking, shopping, gambling, picture taking (of course)...
 |
| Turkey bacon and sausage, egg white spinach frittata, mini croissant |
 |
| fat free yogurt with granola, fresh fruits, and sugar free coffee cake |
 |
| Tommy and I @ The Venetian |
.We headed home on Monday morning to beat the traffic, its was bad in posts but it wasn't TOO bad....we even stopped at stateline to grab a quick bite, let Tommy check the crap tables and for me to get another chance to shop...Tommy was not so lucky but I was...I found a pair of jean capris...for $9.00...and that's not even the best part.....they were a size SMALLER.....how excited was I....
See you can go on a vacation, still have fun, eat at a buffet or some other restaurant, and still manage to stay within your points (you even have the extra 49 that WW gives you a week IF you have to go over)..remember more fruits and veggies, lots of water, granola bars or yogurt for a quick snack.....and the best part have some FUN!!!
We did.....
