Mmmmemorial Day Weekend

My mom and Ryan drove to Las Vegas for Memorial Day weekend and we had so much fun!! Of course we started off with a little shopping at the wonderful Fashion Show Mall.

Ryan developed a new habit of throwing up peace signs in pictures...
M&M Factory Peace Sign Forum Shops Peace Sign
Rio Show in the Sky Peace Sign
Food Peace Signs
We knew how much my mom loved going to Circus Circus last time, so it was a must do on the list plus Ryan had never seen the Adventuredome. This time we took it to a new level and went outside the front to take pictures. I don't know if anyone reading this has been there recently, but they have about 800 million light bulbs right when you walk out to valet and it is soooo bright. I don't think my vision has been the same since.

While Al and Ryan went to get the car my mom and I discovered a hidden casino next to Circus Circus called Slots A Fun. I made her walk through it with me and we might both have swine flu now. The first thing I witnessed walking into Slots A Fun was some random guy yelling the F word at his machine. Although everything in Vegas isn't G Rated I couldn't help but laugh and think he is having Lots A Fun at Slots A Fun.
The fun didn't end there and here is where this post gets good. We were at a stoplight on the strip and there was this big truck next to us with a guy dancing in the back to some music his friends were blasting.
I always like to enrich peoples Vegas experience, so I rolled down the window and yelled WOOOOOO and he danced more....lol

His friend revved the truck and when the light turned green he gunned it and the guy proceeded to fly back into the tail gate, fly into the air and land on the pavement. I'm not sure how he didn't hurt himself, but he got up fine and ran off. If I had a video it this incident I would be famous on Youtube.
We took Ryan to The Rio to watch the Show in the Sky and collected so many beads. We made him wear all of them because we had to wait 30 minutes to see that awful show. Also I found out you can pay $12.95 to ride the float during the show. That could be pretty entertaining, but I don't know if I would pay $1 to do it.
And tell me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure we saw Santa Clause.
On Saturday we went to Caesars and walked to the Bellagio which is a lot further than it looks.



We witnessed another aaaamzing Fremont Street Experience Show. People get so into it and sing along and are seriously enthrawled by the lights above. It's pretty funny.




I found some more Fannie Packs and got serious about this purchase and tried a couple on. The next step will be to purchase one and wear it whenever I go to Fremont Street.



More to come later this week on Al's Big Birthday Celebration Tomorrow!! Ta Ta
