It started Friday morning at my parents house where my dad cooked us all omelettes and hash browns and eggs (my favorite). Then we got in the car and drove down to St. George. We were so happy we all fit in one car so we could all talk the whole time and talk the whole time we did. We all had stories and things to share. You would think for as often as we all talk and see each other that we wouldn't have so much to talk about but we always do.
When we got to St. George we shopped for a little while and I found a
great deal on a new pair of jeans. Everyone was jealous I found such a
good deal and I'm very happy with my purchase. Then we went to dinner
at Brick Oven...yum! We had our own little private room there and it
was so nice cuz we could all talk and hear each other and didn't have to
fight the loud restaurant.
Saturday morning we slept in. It was so strange to wake up to silence
and be able to just lay in bed snoozing off and on until 9am! I loved
it and in fact my first thought when I woke up was, I should get a hotel
room so Shane can do this sometime. He deserves it. Jennifer got up
and made us all french toast and then we slowly got ready and after
lunch headed down to Vegas. We walked around a few hotels, got a snack,
saw the Bellagio fountains (still love them) and then went to dinner at
PF Changs (man I ate good on this trip!)
Then the main purpose for our trip away was to go to the Donny and Marie show. Whitney's dad was nice enough to have some good connections and got us these great seats and VIP tickets to the Meet and Greet afterwards. We were so excited. The show was soo good. I LOVE Donny's voice and could hear him sing anything and it would be great. I was surprised how much I liked Marie's songs as well and it was such a good show. We were disappointed to find out after the show that they had cancelled the meet and greet. Marie had hurt herself during the show (she had this huge purple knot on her face from where her guitar hit her during one of her songs) and Donny had been sick earlier in the week. So we were sad not to get to meet them but the show was still so good. We decided to have our own meet and greet with the life size picture of Donny on the side of a wall in the hotel. Ok we were totally embarrassing but we didn't really care. Jennifer is obsessed with Donny!
After getting back to St. George really late, and the time change, we were exhausted the next morning. But we slept in again and then went to breakfast and drove home. I was soo excited to see the girls and had missed them so much. A HUGE shout out to Shane who handled the weekend with ease and never one complaint. I love him and knew the girls were well taken care of all weekend.
Thanks Mom and Dad, we had such a fun time!
