More Las Vegas Adventures!






So behind on posting!! Hard to believe that my parents were actually here for a visit since it flew by so fast!

I took Mom and Dad on a surprise adventure to Las Vegas while they were here. Mom had been 15 years ago with her parents, but so much has changed since then! And Dad had never been, and was about as excited as I've ever seen him, which made it all even more fun! We made sure to see a Cirque Du Soleil show and of course a live country music show, just for dad. Much to our delight, we had front row seats at the concert, and I didn't realize it was an impersonation show, so that was quite a hoot! I couldn't believe how much looked and sounded like the real people! (We were supposed to get free t-shirts at the show, but since they were out, the let us have a free group photo with the "stars". So here we are with Reba, Tim McGraw, Ronnie Dunn, and Big and Rich!!! Hilarious!)

We visited the Shark Reef Aquarium while we were there, my favorite is Dad finding the guitar fish - priceless!

The evening we got back to our room the first night - we were exhausted. While dad was in the bathroom, mom and I yelled into him that he'd better hurry because someone else was taking his spot in the nice soft bed. We put pillows under the covers and placed his boots and prized cowby hat in perfect position, and then proceeded to get the giggles so bad we could hardly sleep. Nothing particularly hilarious about the little prank, but I don't think I've ever laughed quite so hard!!!

Such special memories that I'll cherish forever!! I love you, Mom and Dad!
