Back from Vegas

Brady and I traveled to Vegas so I could attend a conference on hearing aids (exciting, huh?). MeMe and Pops kept the kids most of the time. Mom was able to pick them up from school on Tuesday and stay until we got home. The kids had lots of fun with their grandparents!! We're not big Vegas fans, but we enjoyed getting away for a few days. What I love most about about being away is coming back!! Just look what our sweet girls had waiting on us when we arrived home last night! Of course all three children were asleep since it was midnight. They didn't know we were home, not even when I gave them all goodnight kisses. Didn't matter to me. It was just a warm, fuzzy feeling to be home. And speaking of warm and fuzzy...........see the cute elephants we brought home for the kids. :)

We stayed at the Flamingo. Our room came complete with a pink-lighted bathroom that sported a TV inside the mirror!! Brady and I thought the bathroom was so cool........the TV, not the pink lights!!! HA! We've sort of added that idea to our "list of things to consider" if we EVER build a house. I really enjoyed it while I was getting dressed for my meetings.

George Wallace, the comedian, walked right past us in our hotel! We were unsure if it was really him, when a hotel employee saw our faces and confirmed that it was him. He performs at the Flamingo and lives there, too. Actually we saw him twice as he was nonchalantly walking around the hotel. Sorry no pics. My camera was in our room and Brady wouldn't let me take one with my Blackberry.

Brady and I went to see Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian. The show was terrific! The show was packed full of awesome talent!!!

our hotel had a wildlife habitat that included flamingos, of course!

Thanks MeMe, Pops, and Nanny for helping with the kids!!! It's always a relief to know they are well taken care of when we are away! :)
