Wow! How in the world is it December 20th already?? The speed at which time flies never ceases to amaze me. Have a wrapped any gifts yet? No. Have I finished my holiday treat plates? Also no. I still have 5 whole days though people!
The number one reason I am behind? We went to the NFR, and I do not regret it for one second. I hadn't been to Vegas for a solid 10+ years nor had I gone to the NFR in that long. Wow! What have I been waiting for? In my opinion, it is 100% the best time to go to Vegas. There is Cowboy Christmas, the rodeo, watch parties, free country concerts and so much more happening along with the normal Vegas activities.
Surprisingly, we hit up every single shopping area associated with the NFR. We went to Horseshoe (where my favorite artist, Alexa Marie was located), Cowboy Christmas at the convention center, Country Christmas at the Rio and ventured to South Point on Sunday. I think we all could have done without the Rio. The booths weren't very unique and seemed to be repeats of what we had already seen. Cowboy Christmas was the biggest and the best to go to. South Point and the Horseshoe were about equal and I enjoyed both of those as well.
We snuck in a night at the rodeo, amazing dinners with family and friends as well as seeing Cirque de Soleil's, 'KA". I couldn't have planned a better trip and don't regret leaving the holiday craze behind for a few days in Vegas. Now to get myself in gear and finish my gift wrapping/holiday baking in time for Christmas! Are you ready for the holiday or are you a tad behind like myself?
