Birthdays...

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY 

BABY BROTHER!!!

I hit mine last year and now it is this

guy's turn to be part of the over 50 club:)

Interesting role being an older sibling:

Does the protectiveness come with being

human or does it come from the parents

always telling you to look out for the younger?

I spent many years looking after this

guy and getting into trouble with him too!

We had a pact as kids to not rat

each other out to the parents so 

there were a lot of "I don't know" 

answers when being questioned about how 

something went down:)

Siblings play a very important part

in who we become as adults.

Are we more caring and sharing or

the opposite?

That 'stick together' attitude was

very helpful at the time

and I like to believe made us loyal adults.

We may not talk all the time but 

I know if I needed him, my brother

would be here for me!!

I Love You Scott!!

October 2018 Part 2

Between all the other craziness of the month, my Amazing Daughters took me to Las Vegas for my birthday.  We had never been on a trip together just the 3 of us and it definitely needs to be done more!  I love being with these two!! A LOT of walking but also so much laughing and chatting!  There may have been some dancing too:)

I feel like maybe I saw part of the Grand Canyon while flying out but if not, this was still awe inspiring!

We stayed at the Famous Flamingo, one of the original landmarks of Old Vegas.  The room felt like it was straight out of a movie and our view was FANTASTIC!!  

 Caesars was directly in front of us and then we realized that we could see the Bellagio Fountain from our room!! It was great but LIVE was Phenomenal!  Our first live viewing was one of my favorite Sinatra songs too:)

The strip during the day... We walked into as many casinos as possible just to see the architecture and design of that particular property. Paris was pretty cool too!  We all enjoyed that one.

There is design Everywhere … molding in the mall and then in a clothing store where they used all old sewing machines in their window display- LOVE!

We took a walk through the Neon Sign Graveyard that was shown in the movie MARS ATTACKS and houses some of the original history of Old Vegas.  Very cool!

New York New York had an old photo booth and so the girlies indulged me:)  IT is unfortunate that I look like I have giant rabbit ears on but I love this one!

There is so much to do in Vegas and we feel a family trip would be great too but we now need another city to explore just us 3!
