Hello! I started my weekend off at my cousin’s birthday party at Skymania, an indoor trampoline!
My cousin invited a few of his friends and my sister, friend, and I decided to come along. Aren’t they the cutest!?!
We decided to jump since we were there and all. 
Check out the snazzy shoes we had to wear.
My sister and I ready to get our jump on!
We decided to do 30 minutes of jumping, and boy, was it a workout! The woman at the counter says you can burn around 500 calories in a half hour. We actually found that they offer exercise classes. We are going to check one out!!
I got some serious air on a few jumps!
After jumping, we really worked up an appetite for lunch.
My cousin turned 11! Happy Birthday Brandon!
I felt like I earned a little cake and ice cream. It was delicious! My aunt made a pudding and banana center. Yum!
Later in the evening, my sister joined my friend and I for dinner at Bahama Breeze. We had planned on a different restaurant, but they didn’t take reservations and the wait was over an over. 
I started with a Pineapple Coconut Martini and we had an order of Tostones with Chicken (Thick slices of home-fried plantains layered with chicken, sweet peppers, mushrooms, onions and cheese, topped with fresh tomato salsa).
For dinner, I ordered a bowl of black bean soup and a side salad. Really delicious…but too much food!
After dinner we decided to head over the new hotel, The Cosmopolitan. Let me just say, this place is beautiful!
We had a drink at the Bond bar. As the site states, “A rhythmic and vibrant hotspot providing a mix of dynamic LED art, live performance and music.”
I had a vodka tonic and it was REALLY strong!

We got a little silly..as usual.
It was such a fun night! Although I don’t frequent the strip that often, I was wondering what you guys thought of me maybe doing a “Vegas” tab. I can mention restaurants or other spots I go to on the strip. I’d love your feedback.
My friend is leaving today and we are going to head out to breakfast here in a bit. How was your weekend? What did you do?

Skymania looks great! We have a couple of those places here but I never thought to ask if they do “big-kid” classes or parties. Great fun – Thanks for sharing Kristen.
What a fun weekend! Skymania looks like fun!
And The Cosmopolitan looks like a very cool hotel. I haven’t been to Vegas in years… I miss it…
LOL how fun jumping! Sounds like you had a great weekend. Love to read about all the fun, interesting bars and restaurants you have!
The trampoline place looks like SO much fun! And exercise classes?! What a fun way to burn some calories! I’m going to see if there is anything like that around me asap.
The trampoline gym looks awesome! I would love to have a b’day there
Or just do a workout class…
I think a Vegas tab is an awesome idea! I have only been there once, but I had a blast and I often think of when I can go back!
Looks like you had lots of fun! That indoor trampoline looks like it was a lot of fun and such a wonderful workout. I have never heard of Tostones with Chicken but it looks absolutely wonderful!
xo
I want to jump on a trampoline like that! What a blast! I could totally see that as a great workout.
When I have kids I want to get a trampoline… I’ll say it’s for them but I secretly want to jump
I’ve heard of that place and have been wanting to try it – looks so fun!
this post makes me want to jump on a trampoline AND eat mexican food
I also had a volka tonic this weekend. It had been awhile and I missed it!
That looks like so much fun! Going to have to check those places out
You should try gin and tonic, pretty good and not quite as strong although I haven’t had one since this one time . . .
Oh how I miss Vegas! Looks like a fun weekend. Happy B-day to your cousin. I never new there was a trampoline place. Is that new? Next time I am in Vegas I may need to check that out. I love the trampoline. I used to do gymnastics and I loved to play on the big trampolines.
the Cosmopolitan hotel is just gorgeous, looks like you had a great weekend! ours wasn’t too shabby either, Saturday we went to a wine tasting event. (over 2000 wines to sample. hey, i can’t complain.
)
The look on your face of PURE joy…the jumping AND the new bar. Okay, does it feel like sometimes that your life is a FAIRY TALE? Seriously!
You are too sweet! I really am not all that exciting, I promise.
Looks like a great weekend! Jumping around on trampolines would be so fun and such a great workout like you mentioned! Your pictures are great.
whoa – that indoor trampoline is amazing! Never heard of such a thing!!
How did I miss this post? This was awesome!
I *love* living vicariously through your Vegas posts! Bond looks fab!
