the crawl.

Santa Crawl 2011!

This is probably one of my new favorite traditions that come with December. You might remember this post from last year when we attended. It's an absolute awesome night. 

This year I decided to wear an Ugly Sweater because I found a pretty awful one at a yard sale. Also, I'm wearing black leggings with red tights over them.... just so you know I wasn't walking around with my butt out. =) If you live close to Reno, NV or even if you don't... I say you should try going sometime. It really is an awesome time. Plus Reno has the cheapest hotel rooms ever.

Getting ready shot! 

The Cups turned Green this year. Last year they were red! On the back of the cup you could fill it out with your name and check either Naughty, Nice, or Undecided. I marked undecided! =) I ended up being pretty nice that night though. 

 

Ran into a group of our guy friends that were all dressed up as Candy Canes. Great idea! 

The Girls of the Night! Brit, Heather, Kim, Kyla, and myself. 

I ended up not getting very many pictures once again. I wasn't carrying a purse. My sister was holding onto my camera in her purse and we got separated at one point and then she ended up ditching out a little bit earlier then everyone else.

Some highlights of the night:

-Starting really early at 5pm and going until 2am.

-Walking around with a huge group of us... around 15 people. (Not pictured.)

-Singing Jingle Bells while walking around outside and having lots of people join in. AWESOME!

-Hanging out underneath the famous Reno Arch and having people throw marshmallows all over the place. Having them get stuck to your shoes is another story....eww.

-Seeing some really creative costume ideas. It's not all about the santas! And planning a group costume idea for next year!

-Having an awesome late night snack at a restaurant called Hash House a go go. Yummy food. And that's not the alcohol talking!

-Having a nice little buzz the entire night and not waking up with the slights bit of a hangover. SCORE!


And that concludes Santa Crawl 2011. Can't wait for 2012! woot!

Santa Crawl

This last weekend my friends and I went up to the Santa Crawl in Reno, NV. We drove up Saturday afternoon and got into our hotel room @ the Circus Circus. It was pretty nice for the price (only $67 a night!). We got ready and hit the town.

The special cups! They are white but then turned reddish pink when you put a cold drink into it! They were $5 dollars but you got drink discounts at all the bars with it. Great deal! Plus a fun souvenir

Sugar Plum Fairy (twin cousin, Heather) and Me...Rudolph, I guess... lol

Ice Queen (my other twin cousin, Kyla) and me..duh.

Me and my cousin Trevor!

Inside Divine, one of the many bars!

There were so many people! They were saying more than 5000 people attended! Craziness! Some people go all out with their costumes. It was fun to see all the different ideas! This was my first year so maybe next year I will dress up more. I was really comfortable though plus I love my red vest! =)

The next morning we got up early, had breakfast, and drove back home...then I napped! =) I hope everyone else had a great weekend. ♥
