Computer FIXED!!


I am happy to say that my computer is up and running, running slowly but never the less running! This is just in time to post a few pictures of my recent trip to Vegas. Ben had a Boat convention in Vegas and I decided to tag along and bring my sister and brother in-law Holly & Rusty. This was there first real vacation and Hollys very first time away from Easten. We went for 4 days we drove and left on Wed. morning and got back home Saturday afternoon. This was plenty of time in Vegas. I used to love Vegas, Everything about Vegas the Casinos, the smokey atmosphere, the noise of the coins dropping in the machines but, this time all I could see was filth. This place is so dirty. Everywhere you go millions of people touch the doors, touching the poker chips, touching the Bathrooms. I was very lost in Vegas without my bottle of hand sanitizer.
We had a Great time but come saturday I was ready to head home and see my Kids.
I lost $20.00 gambling and so did Ben (we are so unlucky) Rusty didn't gamble for fear of losing and Holly became addicted to roulette and won $130.00.
Thanks Holly and Rusty for going with us, it was FUN!!

The BLUE MEN!!!

This is at the Vientian Hotel. It is Beautiful. I wish we were made of money and could have taken advantage of the gondala rides.

The trip would not have been complete without a stop at the M&M factory. This store is huge and I mean huge in the sense that it is 4 floors. I know what your thinking how could there be that big of a store for M&M's. This is where I dropped $20.00 on 2tiny bags of M&M's. At this store there is a place where you can get your own M&M's, the canisters are lined up at the back and there is every color of M&M you can think of. I went a little over board and didn't realize that they were $11.99 a pound. On the positive side my kids loved the M&M's

Tournament of Kings Dinner Show at the Excalibur. We couldn't take any pictures inside once the show started but, this is Ben & I right before the show started. The food was good but, the bad thing was that you had to eat all your food with your hands. (Not good for someone that is a germaphobic)
