Oh my goodness..long time no post! I'm way behind with blogging as of late but had to post about one of the highlights of my summer. Last month I went with two of my sisters, Kyleigh and two nieces to Vegas to see IL DIVO in concert at the Mandalay Bay. We had the BEST time together. Here are some things that made our Happy List...
*decorating our car for the drive down...we had writing ALL over it..."What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas"...Sebastien is our passion...that sorta thing
*the cars that would drive up close on the highway just to read what was written on our car...the car full of guys whooping and hollering at us was the most memorable..I think they thought we were heading to see Chip and Dale or Thunder Down Under..lol
*"This is my favorite!"
*In 'n Out (our North Star in Vegas )
*"Who's idea was this?"
*117 degree weather
*"It's from Walmart"...by Ashley
*Take three pictures and count to three
*Ashley and Marci buying floor seats for the concert
*"Those are OUR FLAGS!"
*"Sebastien talked to me"...by Marci
*the four of us watching (from the rafters) Marci & Ashley, down by the stage, getting autographs, giving flags and shaking hands with IL DIVO
*failing to get past the security guard for a picture outside the Mandalay
*poolside confessions
*calling Shari
*reminiscing about the IL DIVO trip to Vegas three years ago
*Cheesecake Factory
*walking the strip to Sephora
*Bellagio water show
*Paris Hotel
*"Who wants to drive?"
*going to Footloose at the Tuachan in St. George...and getting there in the nick of time
The highlight of the trip for all of us was when Marci was able to hand the American and French flags to Sebastien during the encore song Amazing Grace. Those are the same flags I took to the Utah concert- I had wanted to give the French flag to Sebastien that night but the opportunity never came like I had hoped. But somehow, out of the 12,000 fans there in Vegas, Marci managed. So there Sebastien was... on stage... singing... holding MY FLAGS...and we even got a picture! He even personally thanked her for them which made it even more of a special moment for her. (and me) Of course the rest of us were up in the rafters wigg'in, watching all this and the other interactions they had with Urs, Carlos and David. What a memory! What a night!
Woo-Hoo! How crazy is it that some random guy holding flags that you gave him makes us so happy! HOW FUN! Did Kyleigh have fun with all of you crazy women?
