Today is my youngest sisters 26th birthday! A few months ago she invited whoever wanted to join her in celebration at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Vegas. Specifically floating around in the lazy river with a Pina Colada in hand. I thought it sounded fun, but new I would be "doing time" in Spokane. Then I thought about it again and booked a flight! Benny was able to get some time off to remember once again what it is I do with MY life everyday. He is always grateful and sympathetic for what I do after he gets a taste of it!
So, all in all we had a great time Saturday though Monday night just me, my mom, and Liz and her hubby Mark. Here are some highlights and the photos will come later....
~ Pushing each other through the waterfall with the gals (esp. trying to get me moms extensions to fall out..."Yuck, whats that big clump of hair floating around for?!")
~ The 3+ hours of walking my mom and I did through all the hotels & casinos (were we really just lost?)
~ Cirque's "KA" (watching my mom fall asleep too)
~ Watching Mark eat a lot o' Meat at the RUM JUNGLE rodizo style! (can you sneak me some of that bacon meat under the table??)
~ Shopping.
~Sleeping in (wait, that was only the morning that my mom the night before took a sleeping pill!)
~ reading lots of magazines and watching tons of CNN (hey, I am now UP on my current events... does knowing Clay Akin is Gay count as well?!)
~ Not having to be responsible for anyone other than me....and sometimes my mom!!
Hallelujah for Mommy breaks!!
It's back to work for me!!

Haley, it sounds like you had a delightful time. Shopping...eating...reading...perfect! Thank heavens for kind husbands who make time for their wives to escape.
Bronte and I are looking at a Friday night/ Saturday this month to come visit. I'll e-mail you when we figure out the constantly shifting soccer schedule!
