I have never been on a kid-free vacation and am so looking forward to going to Vegas with my boyfriend in February for my 30th birthday! We already paid for two nights at a hotel there, but I figure we will need about $1375 for airfare, entertainment/spending money, transportation to/from airport, tipping and taxes. I have a loose change deposit to make to the fund in the amount of $13.37 which brings the balance to $1361.63. Worried I will not make my goal, so I am hoping posting it here will make me more accountable.

Held a yard sale today and was able to add an additional $121.95 which puts me over my goal by $12.32! I am going to continue to add to the fund (if I can) so that we can do even more things while we are there. I am getting so excited. I really didn't think I would meet my goal let alone so soon! Thank you all for keeping me accountable.
