This and That......

Hello !!! We're back from Las Vegas and let me tell you..... what a trip ! It was a trip of memories that's for sure. I'm not big on gambling so that wasn't much of a pull for me but the glitz !!!! Now, that got me ! I loved seeing the casino's. The fountains, waterfalls, architecture, statues... oh my ! Beautiful !!!

We saw the white tigers in The Secret Garden, the lion habitat, and the large aquariums. We ate at Roxy's in Circus Circus. I could have sat there all day. The staff took turns singing all the old time rock and roll songs. It was fabulous and the food was good.

We stayed at the Terribles Hotel and Casino. It was a smaller place but the buffet was great and the rooms were clean, comfortable, and the staff was great.

We visited with our mom and I got to meet more of the family. My half sister came over from Ca. and we got to meet. It was wonderful. You can definitely tell we are sisters. We look like our grandmother when she was younger.

Our family was like the Brady Bunch.... moms 2 girls and her husbands 4 kids. Mom lives with Deb, one of his girls. She was wonderful and I feel like she is a sister to me now too. Remember... I was adopted out, so I wasn't raised with the family.

I took lots of pictures and I'll be putting them here as time goes on. I just wanted to let you know I was home and I missed all you all. (((HUGS)))
