Sin City!


Ty and I took a trip to beautiful Las Vegas a couple weeks ago and I had to blog it. For our anniversary, Ty got me front row tickets to the Phantom of the Opera. One of my favorites. It was so dang good! I loved every minute of it. We left the kiddos with my mom and spent four days in Vegas at the Planet Hollywood. We did lots of shopping and saw as many shows as we could.

The Phantom theatre is a all covered when you walk in except for that giant chandellier on the stage. When the music starts, the curtains drop and reveal all of the fake people in the balcony and the chandellier starts to swirl around up to the ceiling. It is so cool. That was probably a terrible description, but you get the picture!

Fake people...I have to admit, I really felt like I was a part of the whole production. I absolutely recommend front row tickets.
Ty at Stomp out Loud ( I was there too). Loved it. It is a show where they make music with anything and everything. One of our favorites.

That trip sounds awesome! Ryan and I both love shows too. I'll have to get suggestions if we ever go to Vegas. The Phantom is my favorite too.

Glad you guys had fun. It's so nice to get away, huh? Cute pictures too. Ty really looked like he was enjoying himself!

May I just say that I am so mad at you for coming to Vegas and not telling me! Just kidding, although I would have loved to see you. Next time, give me a call. I love all of the Vegas shows, and phantom is one of my favorites.

Looks like fun!!! I'm jealous of the Phantom tickets! This is Natalie, Carrie's SIL, I actually make the books through a company called blurb, you can find them at blurb.com......it's not Picasa, I don't know how to do them there. Hope that's helpful, and YES, I remember you too. Small world, eh???
