VEGAS BABY!

This post is really late but I knew I couldn’t skip a post about my awesome trip to Vegas with my mom! To see ALL of my Vegas pictures click right HERE!

We did so much exploring and probably didn’t see all of our hotel, let alone Las Vegas. We stayed at the Mirage Hotel and Casino…I think we counted around 10 restaurants alone in the Mirage. We relaxed by the pool, walked around, and did some slots. But of course I will never forget the time I spent with my mom, how much fun we had, how we talked about life, and of course laughed, laughed, and laughed. We laughed so much people probably thought I had been drinking. Speaking of drinking, ALL I wanted was a yummy virgin strawberry daiquiri…believe it or not, they DIDN’T have any virgin drinks at our hotel. So I had to stick with Dr. Pepper.

As you all can tell from my pictures, I LOVED to see the animals at the Mirage! The huge Lion was probably my favorite…he looked just like Aslan from Narnia! I also loved to see all of the dolphins, and there is a story that comes with them. The morning after we saw the dolphins, mom and I were getting ready in the room with the news on…the reporter lady said, “Another dolphin at the Mirage Hotel has died from a lung infection.” We almost started to cry and if you didn’t notice she said ‘ANOTHER dolphin…’! Other than that the animals just made me so happy!

SHOWS SHOWS SHOWS! Every 2 feet in Vegas there is another sign advertising one of the amazing shows. Mom and I went to 2: Phantom of the Opera & Cirque Du Soleil – LOVE (Beatles style)! Phantom was fun…and kinda scary. My mom and I were total dorks and would sing the scary piano music, stop and feel stupid, and then laugh really hard! The next night we saw LOVE and it was by far our favorite! If I could ONLY express to you how amazing it was. People flying all around you, dropping (nose first) from the ceiling of the auditorium and then stopping an inch from the stage, and about 20 people at once dancing all around you (overwhelming). There were even parts when my mom refused to watch because she thought the guy was going to fall. If you click HERE you can get a feel of how it was…but it doesn’t even compare!

I hope yall enjoyed my LONG post :)
