It was a fun fast trip! Getting there was a little rough because my flight was cancelled, not delayed, cancelled and I was told at 2pm on Tuesday the earliest guaranteed flight i could get to vegas would be on WEDNESDAY at 6PM! I was so bummed, but fortunately I got on the first standby flight out to vegas only arriving about four hours late, not a day and a half late.
Traveling alone was great. I meandered through all the bookstores and magazine stands. Drank my first of about three million cups of starbucks guilt free, ate at TGIF's without deliberating over the decision, and listened to my ipod until i was sick of all my songs. It was heavenly!
We really didn't do a whole lot in vegas. I mean, we did, but when I sit down to write about it, I can't really pinpoint what all we did.
We lazed around the pool.
we gambled a bit, (I lost on slots but troy won in poker).
we saw Shannon Elizabeth playing in the World Series of Poker.
we went to Studio 54 one night and I, well, let's just say, Jenny loosened up a bit. ; )
And we went to see a cirque de soleil(i don't want to look up that spelling so don't correct me..i know it's wrong) show, the one called O. It was beyond amazing. Probably one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Ever. I would love to see more of those shows.
We shopped, and by we, i mean the girls and I shopped.
I marvelled at all the different colored m and m's at M and M world.
We saw the Sirens show at Treasure Island and the fountains at the bellagio.
I walked until my feet ached several times.
And I stayed up till daylight on my last day there.
And I seriously drank more starbucks coffee than I ever had in my life.
It was fun. Exhausting, but fun. When I got home on Friday, I was dead tired so I stayed home instead of driving to MF to get the boys. On saturday morning I drove from San Angelo to San Antonio for a Family Reunion Photo shoot. I stayed there until about 7:30, then drove to Leander to my own family reunion where I was reunited with my boys. I cannot even tell you how tired i was by this point. I called almost everyone I knew on my drives to keep me awake. Then Sunday was spent hanging out with family which was great fun and then monday was a drive to mom's in MF and then finally today, was my final drive back here where I will stay for a while. I don't want to get in the car ever again...or pack ever again. Or unpack for that matter.
But I'm home. I have no good pictures. well, I have one of me in front of the Studio 54 sign. But that's it. My camera is just too big to take places all the time. I need to invest in a small lightweight alternative one for trips and stuff.
So, I'm back. My tan is fading and I am sad. I need to go to the pool, so don't leave me out of any playdates!
