Phantom

Well, it's been a week already since I was in Las Vegas....seriously time flies! I am still in "recovery" mode, but getting back to normal every day. That city can suck the life right out of you as it never sleeps, literally!

On Sunday afternoon Mom and I got to take Grandpa to see Phantom of the Opera. It was one of he and Grandma's all time favorite shows and they saw it many times. We had purchased the tickets for him as a Christmas gift....so Christmas in June it was!

The show was really amazing. It is a show in which the music literally slices you to the core. You have chills, goosebumps....and are just waiting on every scene to see where the story will go next. The show was an abbreviated version, but Grandpa let me borrow his DVD so that I can get the rest of the story.

After the show we did dinner at a new-ish restaurant downtown called "Lucca", it was phenomenal, I had to stop myself from licking my plate clearn :P

It was definitely a nice way to settle down after a CRAZY few days!

Updates.....what is to come.....
-Tomorrow night I will be having dinner with some *old* friends....by old I mean....elementary school classmates! Mindy and I were seriously inseparable in elementary school and spent countless hours rollerblading, singing Milli Vinilli songs and just being girls! She moved to Nebraska years ago and is now settled in Chicago, but is visiting family and made some time to meet up! Accompanying us will be two other girls we went to Elk Grove Elementary school with as well as Dustin....who lived near Mindy and I and is now living in San Francisco.
-Friday night I "get my hair did" and then will try to meet up with Kristi for her birthday dinner.
-Saturday is Dave and Jess' wedding in Brentwood

I should have lots of pics to update on our upcoming events after the weekend!

Happy Wednesday to all
