Christmas 2008






Ok, I'm finally getting around to doing my Christmas post. I'm sneaking it in the middle so it looks like I do things in a timely manner.
So, for Christmas this year my parents were going to come to Vegas from Oregon and my younger sis Jennifer was going to come here from Utah. We had the flights all arranged: Jennifer would come in the morning on Dec. 21 (her birthday) and then my parents would be arriving that evening. Well, it didn't quite work out as planned. Jennifer got here fine, we went to church and everything, but my parents called and said there was a big ice storm in Oregon. We were hoping their flight would just be delayed, but it ended up being canceled. And sadly, the earliest rescheduled flight they would be able to get would be on the day they had been planning to return home. So, no parents for Christmas. :(
I took Jennifer to see the Cirque du Soleil show "Mystere" for her birthday/Christmas gift. David and I had seen it together before, so he didn't go, but I really like it so I didn't mind seeing it for the 2nd time. Jennifer and I also took an outlet mall shopping excursion to Primm. We all went to see the Christmas light show at Sunset Park (which was somewhat disappointing) and the lights at the Cactus Gardens. We went to see the Christmas display at the conservatory in the Bellagio and took a bunch of pictures.
