vegas







My brother, sister & I surprised my mom with a quick jaunt to Vegas. We ate lots of great food, walked The Strip, shopped and people watched. It definitely is a uniquely surreal place! The weather was absolutely gorgeous and the company excellent. I even managed to fit in a little bit of pool-side sock knitting:


I was quite surprised by how enjoyable the trip was since my ideal vacation usually involves lazing around the beach, preferably with an endless supply of fresh squeezed lemonade and knitting at the ready. Now it's onwards to finishing up the school year. Just one more week and our summer vacation will officially start. Can't wait for the more relaxed pace of summer. Looking forward to sleeping in, soft ice cream cones at our favorite stand and beach knitting :)

    How fun to take a surprise jaunt to a city that never sleeps. That Game Over photo made me laugh. We have tomorrow to get through. Will be leaving to get the dames soon.

  4. I love that you took your Mom to Vegas. My sister and I have accompanied my Mom and her BFF once. We need to do that again. Those ladies are much bigger gamblers than us, but we hang out with them and then we go see a show or meet up for dinner and walk around the bright lights.

    Sock knitting is magical and good everywhere, non?

    Soft serve and lemonade at the beach?!? sign me up!
