Viva Las Vegas

A few months back, I was feeling very sad that I hadn't seen my sisters and my mom for some time. As I was talking on the phone with one of my sisters, I mentioned we should take a girls trip. Just my mom and sisters, no kids. After talking and doing a little planning we were able to sell all the husbands on the deal. So early November we all boarded planes except for Mom who drove from St. George and headed to Las Vegas. For a long weekend together.
Here we are in the airport parking garage. Tami is the oldest, then myself, the youngest and my middle sister Michelle. It was EXCITING to see them.
Our first stop was to get some lunch. We spent the rest of the afternoon doing a lot of shopping! Which was a lot of fun for me, since my boys hate to shop. (They are typical boys.)

That night we went to see Phantom of the Opera. We had the best seats, front row center. I have never sat that close in a show before. It was amazing to see every little detail of the actors and actresses! Little side note: On my flight from Denver to Vegas, I sat next to the Aunt of the actor who played Roule. It was fun visiting with her and learning more about the actor. We actually ended up seeing her at the show along with her sister and mother.
We laughed so hard the whole weekend and had a great time together!
Our last night in Vegas, we went and saw the show Mamma Mia. Fantastic performance very different from Phantom. I had a wonderful time with my mom and sisters. It was fun to spend a few days together bonding.

What a fun post! I'm so glad you posted this. It was fun to see you with your sisters and Mom. I always thought you and your Mom looked just alike, but Tami really looks a lot like your Mom. Looks like fun!
