Vegas!! Stacys b day

[RiverDave]

So Stacys b day was Monday and we didn’t have any plans so we decided to haul ass to vegas for a night.

Went to the NYNY and had dinner at Gallagher’s.. it was good.. I’d recommend if you are gonna eat like an asshole stay an extra day.. lol. I shoulda Just got a salad.

Of course my youngest had to have the lobster.. then ate a little and said “I don’t like it”.

I feel sorry for whomever dates my kids.. Daniel orders a shrimp cocktail as an app at every restaurant that has it.. summer prefers filet and French onion.. pricey little shits.

There’s a story behind that, the short version is when real estate was going nuts out here, the kids were with me all the time.

I don’t want to eat at McDonald’s all the time so I always took them to nicer restaurants and got them to try different things so they wouldn’t be stuck on happy meals forever.. it worked.. but also backfired because it’s expensive as shit taking them anywhere..

After dinner I told Stacy to go play slots and we would head to the arcade. This is where I learned those casino arcades are just about as expensive as the god damn gaming floors.. At this point what’s the difference? Just give them the god damn slot machines.. at least we would have some chance at winning. Lol.

After a couple hours in the arcade Stacy and Sierra went on the roller coaster. Another half hour or so at the arcade. Some of the games are carney style games where you get tickets.

The kids had around 3,000 tickets and decided to buy uncle preston a neon sign for his garage.

Lobster looks good!

I had the kids again and told Stacy to go have fun so we went to the Hersheys store.. should he noted there are two liquor stores by the arcade.. both only sell 24 oz Coors lights. I was six or eight walking in to the arcade and had four or five 24’s in said arcade..

I said get whatever ya want.

I haven’t even played a single game of black Jack yet..

Well the kids are outfitted with a bunch of candy themed clothing now anyways.

 

[RiverDave]

Stacy caught up with us at the Hershey store. Had one of their famous mixed drinks at the bar right outside the store.. we took the kids to bed.

 

[RiverDave]

While I’m a total degenerate gambler I’m hammered out of my ghord and decided due to budgetary concerns I’m only gonna play what I have in my pocket.. so I put 125.00 into a wheel of fortune and played awhile. Hit a winner for like 200 and ended up with 250.00. That I immediately returned to the machine. Lol. That was my sun total of gambling for the weekend.

I was so hammered I didn’t even film it right.

 

[RiverDave]

I lost Stacy in the casino.. I’m tired and wasted it’s way late..

I have pics of the late night snack.. lol.

They had Miller I guess.

 

[RiverDave]

Woke up in the am.. hit the hash house a go go and homeward. There’s 24 hrs in Vegas for ya.

I have discovered that it is more expensive to take your wife and kids to vegas for a night than to go with your drunk buddies and gamble. You can’t win at expensive dinners and arcades and shopping. Where as when you are gambling you go through series of ups and downs and end either up or down. Lol.

Should also note when my drunk ass friends and I go.. a nice meal might be a taco cart in the ghetto somewhere. The rest is all comp’d drinks etc.. as opposed to buying alcohol etc..

RD, looks like fun. Next time if you have more than one day, and it is not 110 outside, I can arrange for a Lambo ride. My favorite thing to do, make children smile.

Thats a great offer...my son would 100% choose a 10 minute Lambo ride then a few hours at the arcade...

I feel Dave's pain though on the food situation, my son loves sushi and good steaks (he wont even touch a sirloin)

Looks like a great 24hrs. Kids had fun Stacy had fun and you my friend had a Miller Lite... winning

My kids are the same way, especially my son.

 

[Mandelon]

I can't get over how quickly your kids are growing up.... sure doesn't seem that long ago that you were living it up in Parker.

Dave’s complaining about them being hooked on expensive food, I don’t think getting them hooked on exotic cars will help much

In all seriousness the best thing about having a cool car is seeing the kids faces.

Happy B-day AGAIN Stacy. LOL. Looks like a lot of fun. I hear you on the kid’s eating habbits. Our son got the taste of lobster on our Alaskan cruise. Now every time we are at a place for steak it has to be surf and turf. Maybe you should introduce your kids to that next outing. LOL

 

[Wedgy]

Good looking bunch Dave.. "You did good Frankie.." Happy Birthday Stacey!

 

[Tank]

Good farhering and husbanding Dave. Love reading your adventures.
And I can relate to kids and food we make our kids try everything. Had Thai last night. But they love sushi, lobster, filets. Shrimp cocktails, fish l, all that shit. Raised Taylor same way and look at her now! Lol

Buddy jokes around about the kids ordering at restaurants, “I’ll have the number 48”…. him “uhhh, that’s the price kid”

 

[MR HARLEY]

Very nice! Happy Birthday Stacy!

 

[Warparty36]

Looks like a good time! Happy Birthday

 

[TimeBandit]

It looks like a good time was had by all.

I used to have neighbors that ate out a lot and convinced their kids that grilled cheese sandwiches were always the way to go.

My brother and I loved steaks or pizza but we didn't get to go out very often.

 

[DaveC]

I really love RD’s style….getting totally sauced at the casino on his wife’s birthday……you sir are my hero. LOL

How in the hell do you consume 12plus 24oz beers and still eat and function? Without exploding??

Did you see The Sphere? The photos are pretty amazing.

Can my son and I sign up for this too. Is there a list somewhere? I'll buy lunch and gas!

Add my son to the list as well!

Good looking family. Vegas is always a good time. I haven't been since covid, has it changed much?

 

[boatpi]

This fall when it cools off we could have a few opportunities available for kids. Not at 112 degrees , I am in the Hellcat chillin in this heat.

 

[boatpi]

Vegas has cleaned up greatly now that Joe Biden‘s money is all pissed away on weed and old English 800’s, smoked up

Shit has doubled in price and more traffic, so not much.
