An Explanation for Judy

First, an apology. We SHOULD HAVE planned time to visit the Lee family while we were in Las Vegas to see Phantom. No excuse. It was bad form on our part.

But see, there is a little bit of an excuse. Here goes:

We planned a whole week of exciting adventures for our stay-cation. One of those days was a whole day (and a night) in Las Vegas so we could visit our dear family, hang out with them, go shopping, etc. and see Phantom. I even reserved a room and Dad's Worldmark Resort. However, our plans changed.

Last Friday, my friend Stephanie asked if Megan would be able to dogsit at her house Wednesday through Saturday of Spring Break. She was desperate to find someone as apparently her other plans for dogsitter didn't work out. So, a quick call to Megs, and you all know how much she LOVES dogs. How could she say no? She couldn't, not only because of the dogs (two darling white Westies named Sampson and Delilah) but because Stephanie was paying very very well.

So, end result, we are squeezing our 6 days of stay-cation into only 3 days. Hence the very quick trip to Las Vegas. We left at 4:00 MST, got there at 5:00 Vegas time (what is that? Pacific time?) went to dinner until 6:15 ish, drove over to the Venetian, got in line for the theatre at 6:30, saw the show at 7:00, got out at 9:30 and drove home. It was quick, I promise. No dilly dallying and no shopping, no visiting anyone. I'm sorry!!! We'll make it up to the Lees somehow. Please forgive us. We took the money and ran (so to speak).
