ROCK AND ROLL LAS VEGAS HALF MARATHON

Dave and I just returned from a quick trip to Vegas so we could run in the Rock and Roll Las Vegas Half Marathon.  It was absolutely amazing to see all the beautiful casino lights while running on the strip.  There were about 30,000 people who participated in the marathon and half marathon so the strip was quite crowded at times, but Dave and I both had a really fun run!!  After the run, we indulged in multiple....yes, you read that correct........multiple buffets!!  We also gambled a bit, did a little shopping and saw Terry Fator's show.  He was the ventriloquist who won America's Got Talent and was pretty amazing. Not only was he comical, but he was able to sing Adele, Aretha Franklin and Elvis without moving his lips AND he sounded just like them.  I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to see a fun Vegas show.  Dave and I had a wonderful trip, but were extremely excited to get back to our favorite little person.  We missed her terribly while we were gone!  Even though Vegas was fun, there is no place like home!!!
