I hope you are having a fabulous Sunday! Here are 9 pictures from our Vegas extravaganza.
-We stayed in St. George with some of his family and we picked up breakfast on our way to Vegas. This particular bakery gave COOKIES with their breakfast egg sandwich meals?!? I’m not going to complain.
-We hung out at the tailgating party for a bit.
-The weather for the game was perfection.
-You know someone is kind of the best if they will wear twinner hats with you.
-We hit up a roller coaster.
-And then the best Las Vegas buffet in my opinion.
-The gelato at the dessert station was heavenly.
-We finished off the night by walking around and watching the Bellagio water show before heading back to St. George.
-And now we are on our way back because I’ve got a Frozen boot wearing, pretzel bite loving, three year old that I miss like crazy!
What are you up to today?

So much fun and the weather looks perfect! Favorite Vegas restaurant would be the little French cafe in Paris!
Sara @ LovingOnTheRun
I haven’t been to Vegas since I was about 10 years old, it’s quite the trip for us but I’d love to go back! I’ve got a short easy run today and then cleaning, laundry and lots of wrapping are on my to do list!
Sarah @ SarahRuns26
I’m not a fan of buffets but the ones in Vegas are pretty incredible!
Today I’m running then have to work again. I’m not supposed to work weekends but I’m covering for someone who is sick!

Spending time with family today, it’s the best kind of day :)
Michele @ paleorunningmomma
Ha! Cookie with an egg sandwich is the perfect breakfast. Looks like a ton of fun.

I’ve been to Vegas once before and LOVED the fountain show at the Bellagio! So neat! Sounds like an amazing Christmas-gift-date, sounds like a keeper :) so happy for you Janae.
Jill
Sounds like an awesome vacation! :)
10k run this morning with my run group.
I bought that training journal you recommended for a running friend (and one for myself) and she (and I) LOVE it. Thank you! I’m excited for next year ;)
Merry Christmas

Looks like a fun trip! I’ve never been to Vegas and haven’t really ever wanted to go, but your adventure made it seem like a good time!
Busy Sunday today, including some bowling team practice. And froyo, of course.
Laura @ This Runner's Recipes

So much fun! I haven’t been to Vegas yet but it looks like you went during a great time of year. Have a great Sunday!
Arthi
Looks like such a fun date! Good work, mystery man :)
Sunday plans – MAYBE going on an easy shakeout run (got in a 14-miler yesterday!), baking up some sugar cookies and then attending a mom/daughter secret santa/cookie party this afternoon!
Happy Sunday!
Margaret @ youngandrungry
I’ve never been to Vegas but you two make it look FUN! He seems so great I’m so happy for you!
I’d take a cookie with breakfast any day. In fact I would take any of those meals especially the dessert.
I’m going to church today then hopefully going for a trail run and relaxing a little!

Still remember the Bellagio fountains show with Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds!! Was awesome…
Las Vegas has a lot of amazing restaurants, but my favorite is the Peppermill … the decor is unique!
Michelle
The picture of you two in hats is absolutely adorable:). You look so happy. You deserve all of it! :))
Kimberly
Happy Sunday Janae. I appreciate the timing of your Vegas post. I will actually be tbere in 6 days on a trip celebrating 24 years with my wonderful hubby and his 50th birthday. (These 2 events are one week apart.)
Maybe we will try The Wicked Spoon buffet, never been there. We are definitely doing tbe New York roller coaster and going running in Red Rock Canyon. I still have miles to accomplish before my marathon in January.
Thanks for sharing your postive and precious posts. Running , fitness and just good ol everyday life… I truly enjoy your blog. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas to you , Brooke and your entire Family

Sounds like a blast! I totally totally totally get why you’re not saying a lot on the blog about the guy. And I totally respect it. And I would probably do the exact same thing! But I’m also kind of dying to hear more about him! In a non-creepy because we’re basically Internet bffs kind of way of course ?? For real though. I hope he’s great. You deserve it!
Becky @ TheBexFactor.
This sounds like so fun! I’m happy that things are going well with this gent. I’m so curious to hear more about your mystery man. I get why you’re not saying anything, but I’m still curious.

Today’s highlights are last minute Christmas shopping before seeing the new Star Wars movie. Can’t wait!

I’ve never been to Vegas but it looks like a lot of fun! Love your twinning hat pic…really cute :)
Leanne
The only time I went to Vegas was about 14 years ago for work. I ate at a fantastic restaurant in MGM, but cannot remember the name.
I am currently sitting in the theater with my family waiting for Star Wats to start!
Happy Sunday!
Suzy
I’m turning 38 and I’ve never been to Vegas, and I’m okay with it. It looks like fun though! I certainly wouldn’t turn down the trip!
Margaret @ Simple Fit Foodie
is that a dessert buffet???? ooooo gimmie! looks like fabulous weather in vegas, send some to wisconsin :)
Nina
I loved that there was gelato every where you went in Vegas. Patsy’s in old Vegas is one of my favorite places to eat.
Amanda B @ Cupcakes & Miles
Ooh! That looks like so much fun! Your twin hats are very cute!
I really like Serendipity and the Harley Davidson restaurant (for breakfast). I’m considering doing Rock N Roll Vegas 2016 and would definitely plan a weeklong vacay around it if I do.
Tedi @ Running With Infertility
It’s too bad BYU lost! :(
It’s an extra lazy day for me after my 20 miler yesterday and a 3/4 Dopey Challenge for the week.
I have a favorite restaurant and they don’t have it in Utah. It’s called Panera Bread. So so good, but they do have one in Vegas. So does that count? ;)
Sam @ See Sam Run
Looks like you had a great trip to Vegas! I’ve been a couple of times when I was younger. My family loved Margaritaville! We’re huge Jimmy Buffet fans so whenever we can find one of his restaurants we have to go.
Lorraine
Love reading your blog, a great inspiration for those of us how are not as fast as you. So excited to be heading to Vages November 2016 for the Rock n Roll marathon. Travelling all the way from London! A group of us from our running club are doing the 5k Saturday and full next day. So excited. Keep posting. ?
Catie B
What a fun trip!!! I really do love Las Vegas. Great people watching!!!
Today I have to finish up some Christmas shopping and just relax and hangout with my family. :)
Melissa @ See Dav Run
What a fun trip! We loved Serendipity at Caesar’s Palace – amazing tuna, ribs, and of course, frozen hot chocolate.
Still working on Christmas shopping (I love the last minute) and hanging out with my dog and BF. Lazy Sunday. :)
Taylor
The buffets in Vegas are the best!!! And the Bellagio water show is amazing! What a fun little getaway!
Marissa @ Run Riss Run
We are in Santa Clara for a football game today! I miss my littles like crazy too but I’m thankful for a weekend with my sweetie.
Julia @ Lord Still Loves Me
I love how happy you are Janae. I’m glad you have found someone that deserves you. He must be incredible!
Deb
Your dude bears a striking resemblance to Wilson from that old “Home Improvement” show. :) #MysteryMan
Grant
Looks like you had a great time! That panorama of the stadium is a great picture.
Today marks the official beginning of my first-ever marathon taper! All the excitement and self-doubt is already swirling in my head…
Runner
Next time you are there try running in Red Rock Canyon. You would love it!
Sarah @ Smile & Conquer
How fun that you could make a quick trip to Vegas! I love the idea of exchanging experiences instead of gifts, it’s always a challenge to pick something unique for my bf after being together for 10+ years. Today is a lazy day for me, we did Christmas w/ my family yesterday since we’ll be away over real Christmas.
Becky @ Ok, so here's the plan
What a fun weekend!
I went to my first yoga class in forever today and made pistachio fudge! :)
Daisy @ Fit Wanderlust Runner
Sounds like such a great weekend!
Kay
The Vegas buffets are amazing!! Looks like a great day!
Mia

Kristin
Breakfast at the restaurant in the Paris Hotel tops my list of favorites! Although, the view from the Rio is pretty amazing!
Katie
Can’t wait to hear more about this guy :) So happy for you! On a another note… any recommendations on “healing” books.. I’m going through what you did a few years ago.
zolar
