Tournament of Kings

Yesterday morning we lounged around and played games. In the afternoon, we went to Caesar's Palace and window shopped the Forum Shops. The had gelato there, but it was $8 a scoop, so we passed, even though it looked rather scrumptious.

Then last night we went to the Tournament Of Kings at the Excalibur here in Las Vegas. It was a Renaissance dinner and entertainment and that's about all I knew about it when we went. We had heard it was really good from other people we had met that had been to it.

So we got there and there was no silverware for dinner and the lady next to me said we had to eat with our hands. What would Martha do in a situation like this? Would she just pick up and leave? Possibly! But, since we had paid a lot of money for this "experience" I figured I better stay. Then they served Cornish game hens for dinner. I hate any meat with bones in it, let alone something that looks like the actual animal, just without the head. EEW! It makes me shiver to even think about it.

However, after I gave it a chance, and it turned out to be very fun and the food was ok. The show involved knights, dragons, kings, swords, real FIRE, dancing girls (it is Las Vegas, you know), very muscular men with disgustingly long hair and no shirts, fighting with real horses, dirt arena, and real cheering spectators (us and everyone else who paid a pretty penny to watch). We got to cheer on our French night and it was a little interactive that way.

After that we went to the Bellagio which is a beautiful hotel. We checkout out their gardens and outdoor fountains. All in all a nice day.

Today we are going to roam a couple more casinos for free stuff and then go to a variety show tonight.

Job Hunt

Steve was expecting an email job offer while we are in Las Vegas with a company he has spent weeks interviewing with. The company did email last night while we were at the Freemont Experience and he got the email on his cell phone. They said they want to meet with him one more time for a FORTH interview to discuss salary. I felt like throwing his phone across the street! However, we wouldn't be able to afford a new one, so I decided against it.

Anywhoo, stay tuned, he may be employed next week.

Happy Birthday Honey!

Well, yesterday was Steve's birthday. We had a great day and I'm glad he is joining me at 32. It's a great age. Although I keep telling people we're 33, so maybe I'll like that age better, who knows.

Anyway, I love him more today than ever and hope we have 32 more years to spend together!

Steak Anyone?

Yesterday we went out to eat lunch at In-n-Out burger. I was surprised that it was actually pretty good for fast food. Steve and I both ate for $8! It's a 50's diner style "joint" and apparently extremely popular around here. There are sometimes lines about a block long at the drive through and around the restaurant to go inside. Who knew? We didn't have to wait much because we had a late lunch.

Then we went on to M&M World where we walked about a mile to get there only to spend $40 on funky colored M&Ms. Except we promptly put back 90% of them and spent 11.99 for one pound. Steve is out of work now and all.

That night we went to the Freemont Experience which is "old" Las Vegas, probably from the 50s ish when Vegas wasn't so commercialized. It was so much better than "new" Las Vegas and we enjoyed it a lot more. It had a very retro feel, live music, an amazing light show and best of all... SUPER CHEAP FOOD! We had a prime rib dinner that was really fantastic for $7.99. I tried a fried twinkie and fried Oreos just to say I did it. I did it and it was gross! That's a direct quote from me.

We like it here, except for the massive amounts of people that smoke. I think I have lung cancer!

Well, on that note, see you all on Saturday!

Las Vegas Ward

We arrived here late Saturday night. We visited Grandpa Bickmore and Louise on Saturday, then went to church here in Las Vegas on Sunday. We went to the Steve's friends LDS ward, Bill and Gina Wadley. We loved it there! They had fantastic lessons and very friendly people. The Relief Society lesson was great and made me ponder something... These days we have so many modern conveniences that our Mother's and Grandmothers never had. We have disposable diapers, microwaves, washing machines, dishwashers, personal computers, the Internet, email, and more. With all of these time savers, why do we have less time? I don't know the answer to that, but I have been reflecting on how I choose to spend my time. Any suggestions on how you choose to balance things would be greatly appreciated!
