Day 21: Steven's Birthday!

This is posted a day and 5 minutes late because, well, we had a 21st birthday party to attend last night!  Eric's cousin and BEST friend turned 21 on Thursday and we celebrated by spending the night at the Argosy casino.  We spent Friday night at Steven & Leslie's apartment, and had a great day leading up to the gambling.  We had Taco Bueno for breakfast/lunch, along with running errands to the post office, the bank, Best Buy, and CVS.  Then we went to Nebraska Furniture Mart to look at TV's, mattresses, dressers, and other furniture.

Very happy about my quesadilla

Steven is mildly happy about his nachos

This is where the GPS told us Nebraska Furniture Mart was.  Something tells me I'm not going to find hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of furniture and electronics in this place!

Eric found a happy macaroni vase, Steven found a mildly entertained water cup.

This is Eric's future home, the La-Z Boy

We finally headed out to the casino and spent around 5 hours out on the floor, mostly spending our money at slots and video poker.  I think Steven was the only one who ended up ahead.  I think Phillip, Pete, and Paul all ended up with vouchers for $.04 cents.

I think this is Pete and Phillip with their $.04 vouchers, and Edie with her $100.09 voucher!
