One of the things I have chosen to do this year is, each month I will pick something that I have never done before (Ei: going somewhere, cooking something, or making something) and I will then document what I experienced!
Since last month just about flew by without me finding anything new to do. I thought that I would have to just skip it and start with the month of February. But thank goodness for BFFs! On the 31st of January, my best friend, Amanda, informed me that she was going to be staying at a local casino because she received a free night there. I was pretty happy for her and I knew that her boyfriend would be enjoying this stay too. She then suggested that I come along because her boyfriend wasn't getting off work until later. I am not one to really go and gamble... but Amanda (this is why she is my BFF) knew just what to say to get me to come along. "They have a pool there! we could go swimming!" Those were the words that hooked me. I was in! And the more I thought about it the more I realized that 1. I had never honestly gone to a casino hotel just for swimming. 2. Since I am somewhat new to SD (I just moved here this last year) I had never gone to this casino! It was a win win! I got my "new" thing in just in time.
I didn't however think about taking photos for when I blogged later. But I can tell you that the hotel attached to the casino was super nice and they had a hot tub shaped like a lazy river, which connected to the outside. If any of you reading this are from the Midwest, then you know in Jan. it is snowy and cold! I begged Amanda to come in to the hot tub and venture outside... it was amazing! Just like I new it would be! Also! Amanda had a new first too! Seems she had never been in a hot tub while it snowed. At first we both kind of freaked out as the wind and snow swirled around us. But slowly we both took in the awesomeness. Amanda's dark hair was incased with pretty white sparkling snow by the time we both thought we should go back inside.
Here is a very POOR drawing of Amanda and I.... I am the one with the pink in the hair... I attempted to add bathing suits but.. Gosh! I forgot how much I suck at using the paint app! Please don't judge!
See! we are in the water! :-)
Whenever I go anywhere with Amanda we always have some type of Adventure! Before we left the hotel room to head to the lovely pool... we saw two people leaving through double doors right next to Amanda's room. We both thought to ourselves that it must be another way to get to that level. so of course as we exited her room and turn to the doors... I start to shake the handle and go "that's weird! its locked!" We BOTH see that there was a card key slot. "OH!" we say and Amanda puts her key in.. it didn't work... I happen to look up at the door to see what the heck we were doing wrong only to figure out... it was a suite! oops! So happy the couple had left before! HAHAHAHAha! Both of us got out of there fast. Honestly officer! we thought it took us to a staircase! ;-)
So that was my last day of the first month in the year 2015! On a side note, Amanda and I had some time to check out the casino floor and I did happen to win an extra $20! I would say that overall I am very excited to see what is in store for me the rest of this year. Love and Sunshine!
