We had a great weekend in Vegas. We saw Cirque du Soleil at the Wynn. The show was in the round and all the acts were performed in water or on the ropes. Pretty amazing stuff. We gave Doug a karaoke machine that I picked up an after Christmas toy sale. Amiee, our daughter-in-law sang a Disney tune, the first time I have heard her. She can sing. We sang all the numbers from Newsies, Wicked and a Disney Princess disk. Good times. On Saturday night, we went to the Luxor for an IMAX movie about walking on the moon and after a walk down the strip to the Bellagio to see "the dancing waters." This name was given to the Bellagio fountains by Michaela when she was three. I kept reminding myself not to think about work and to stay in the moment. Spencer asked me to take this photo of him with "the most beautiful trash" he had ever seen. The Bellagio boasts of having the largest chocolate fountain in the world. The chocolate (3 varieties, white, caramel and dark) pours through a beautiful crystal sculpture. Nearly a ton of chocolate.


I am also posting a new "favorite" picture of Spence and Michaela. The look on Spencer's face typifies their relationship. He feels the constant need to be on guard with her. It is her mission in life to test and try her brother.

All in all a great weekend celebrating Doug's Birthday.

Enough for now...love to all.
