Gotta Love Those "Firsts"

It's no secret to anybody that I usually have incredible first time experiences..."hint hint, wink wink". Well in true Ashley fashion, I recently had a few others. This is going to be about my first flying experience!
As most of you know, I was asked to be a bridesmaid in my friend Kiera's wedding. I'm not new to the bridesmaid experience...not at all. However, this wedding was different from the other 3 that I've been in. For one, the bachelorette party was in VEGAS!

I was so cool with this, up until shit started to get real. Buying the plane ticket and actually having to get on a plane. I was soooo nervous. Thursday, November 9, 2017, that was the day. Miracle picked me up at some ungodly hour and we headed to Cincinnati. When we got there, we ate and I was so shocked at what types of shit you can buy at airport lol It looked like a whole mall that has planes.

So we get on the plane and I'm super nervcited. I was in a middle seat and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I was sitting next to this elderly woman and I explained to her that I was nervous because this was my first plane ride. Yes, I was that person. Her name was Barb and she told me what to expect as the plane was taking off, and that everything that was happening was normal. I watched Black-ish and Trolls, and I listened to like 14 songs off Chris Brown's new album. I also fell asleep for like an hour and was arm wrestling with the guy on the other side of me. As we were waiting to get off the plane, somehow, Barb informed me that she was.....A RETIRED TEACHER!!!!! It was like the greatest thing ever. We had a lot to talk about at that point. She gave me some old school pointers. We hugged and parted ways.
Here is a picture from my first flight...not that great but very sentimental so you have to see it anyway.

We landed at the Salt Lake City Airport which was cool as hell!! It was freaking huge, looked pretty clean, and had tons of food options that seemed to be miles apart. We got on a smaller plane and I felt like the wind was just throwing the plane everywhere. I sat next to whatshername. She was also very nice and let me take pictures out of the window. Funny thing about whatshername, she was going to go visit her friend who is a....TEACHER!!! WOOHOO!!
The flight attendant on this flight...was cool af. Here's why: The liquor in that photo was free! She gave Miracle two mini bottles of vodka and Miracle gave me one. The flight attendant offered me my own two bottles, and I turned down her offer because I was scared to be drunk on the plane *insert face palm* I didn't know what it would feel like. Next time I'm offered free airplane liquor, I'm getting wasted. 

We met Jalisa at the airport, rented the car and the party started...Here are a few Gems from the Lit Vegas snap story and the flight home:
