That's right, Micah and I renewed our vows on our five year wedding anniversary. It is something we decided on doing when we first got married. We said we would like to renew every five years, whether good or bad, sick or well, whatever the season of life, every five years we are renewing.
So we just hit five and boy was it amazing. We were so happy to be able to stay at a resort called Loews Hotel. It is in Henderson, NV right on the lake. About 30 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip and it was a phenomenal place. A really dear friend of mine works there and gave us an incredible rate! She even reserved us a private Cabana poolside on Saturday, all day!
High rolla status yo'
We renewed our vows at the Graceland Chapel and of course, Elvis was our officiant. He serenaded us as as my dad walked me down the aisle. We exchanged rings and said our I do's, shed some tears then yelled some cheers!
Afterward for our faux reception we all headed out to celebrate at Carluccio's Tivoli Gardens (designed by Liberace himself) It was delish and oh so magical.
With full tummies we changed in the restaurant bathrooms (oh so classy I know) and headed straight for the Vegas strip to party it up a bit, and by party I mean we went to the M&M factory, the coca-cola store and went to the New York, New York Casino for a bit. I know we're animals!
Seriously though we had a blast keeping it low key and then playing craps into the wee hours in our hotel's Casino.

Then Sunday we took all the moms out for a Mother's day breakfast at good ol' IHOP and then Jace and Jan (Micah's parents) had to head out and catch their flight while the rest of us extended our stay at the hotel until 2:00 pm where we just played at the water park in our resort + played an aggressive game of water Volleyball until it was time to head home.
I couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable weekend with family and friends! Now to start planning our ten year...
