My Best Friend!

Well of course Wayne is my best friend! After him comes my sister!! I just love my sister! No offence to my brothers but Samantha and I can talk for hours about anything and or nothing. Last week Wayne had a business trip in Vegas. He is such a sweetheart! He took Apri and I along so we could spend a week with my sister and her family. Apri loved the airplane ride!! She was so dang cute!! Before the plane took off she sat down and said "I READY!!" Then as we took off she said "A REALLY REALLY LOUD!!"as she covered her ears. She was so excited and curious about the entire experience. The funniest is when we landed she asked very seriously "A one more time". She just loved the airplane ride!! The first night Apri and I stayed with Wayne at the Flamingo. When we woke up Apri and I ate breakfast while we watched the Flamingos they have at the hotel. Apri loved the Flamingos!!


Wayne was busy with work, so we just walked around and explored while we waited for Samantha to come pick us up. We went to the MGM and the M&M factory. We also went to my favorite, the Bilagio Gardens. They had it decorated for fall it was beautiful.




Samantha came and picked us up and we spent the rest of the week at her house. The highlights of the week were first her NEW POOL!! It turned out great!! I wanted to take some pictures of her pool but I was just too busy relaxing in the hot tub!!!

Next was Shopping! Shopping is always fun, but we had a really successful day! We both needed a new dress, so that was our goal. To our surprise we both found a new dress! We also found some great high heels for me and some cute shirts for Samantha. We were very pleased with our spoils!

The last highlight was just spending time with her family!! I got to watch Erika play volleyball at the high school. I played video games with the boys. Matt and I rocked out to Guitar Hero. We watched some movies. Most of all I loved the heart to heart talks me and my sister had. She is such a great example to me and I just think the world of her!! Thanks for the great visit Samantha!!

I was so jealous that Josh saw you guys in Vegas. I was thinking of going, but prices of tickets to the west are a little on the expensive side. Oh well, I guess we'll have to see you when we come out next month.

I feel the same way about my sister! She & I can also talk for hours like that. Sisters definitely are special and I'm glad you had the opportunity to have a good visit with yours. Beautiful pictures!
