\u00a0We made it a reunion weekend since we all live in different parts of the country. \u00a0We went for some fun and to run the Rock &#8216;n&#8217; Roll half marathon on Sunday night. \u00a0The race had great energy. \u00a0The strip was closed down for the runners, and if you are going to run at night, Vegas is the place to be.<\/h3>\n<h3>I have been to Las Vegas a couple of times before this trip, and I always enjoy going to the Bellagio and seeing the gardens. \u00a0I am always impressed with their themes and what they come up with. \u00a0 \u00a0Come along as I show you their holiday decorations. \u00a0I have to let you know that I took these photos at night when it wasn&#8217;t filled with people. \u00a0In return, the quality is not the best. \u00a0You will still be able to get an idea of their Holiday Cheer!<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a
