The Strip
We have finally returned from all of our travels. Laundry is calling my name. But, the vacay was GREAT!
We spent the 4th of July with my grandparents in Ft. Worth. My parents, Analee, cousins, and my uncle and aunt also came. I heart Grammy's. The homemade chocolate ice cream is soooo yummy!
Over the weekend we went down to Houston to see more family and friends. Oh yeah, we ate too! Lupe Tortilla is heavenly!!!! Gosh, I miss good Mexican food.We returned for 2 days so Michael could work and be at meetings and such.
Then we drove back to Ft. Worth to catch our flight to Vegas. I was surprised by how much fun I had!!!
*The highlights*
*the pool at our hotel-We stayed at the MGM grand. The "grand pool" as they call it consist of 6.6 acres of pools! It was so much fun. I wish I had more time to enjoy it.
*the food-When you live in Abilene, great food is hard to come by. So vacation always means good eats. We ended up eating at a lot of Wolfgang Puck's establishments. Hmmm...my favorite was the Chinese fusion place. I heart Chinese food!
*the shopping-I love the Forum Shops at Caesar's. Kate Spade decided she wanted to be part of my purse collection. :) (For those of you that don't know, I have a purse collection. It is one of my favorite things to buy. It is right up there with my shoe collection.)
*star sightings- I saw Dillon from General Hospital. Michael saw Carrot Top
***the entertainment-We went and saw Mamma Mia (very cute), a magic show, and the Beatles' LOVE cirque du soleil!!! Incredible! It was the best show I have ever seen! I have never seen anything like it. It was in a theatre in the round and you felt like you were part of the show. It was very interactive. The music was great. I loved all the artistic representation. Just, WOW!
@ the Beatles LOVE theatreI loved it!Back to the world of West Texas. A couple more weeks to enjoy my summer.
