The Caravan to Vegas



Our Nephew Skye graduated this year as well and we headed out to celebrate with the Brandow's in Las Vegas. It was great to see and be with our family. Normally when our little Booth Fam heads to Vegas, we do the trip in about 3 1/2 to 4 hours, with kids. It was a whole different story this time around. We had 3 cars and two motorcycles making the trek and with all the stops, tire inflating, tire blow out and waiting for a tow truck to come with the right size tire iron, it took 9 hours to make it. Then we had 13 people staying at 3 different hotels and 1 timeshare. Needless to say it was a crazy two days but we enjoyed swimming around the shark tank at the Golden Nugget, roaming the Bass Pro Shop for hours and stopping at State Line to ride the roller coaster and log rid on the way home.



Mara acted as chauffeur for Maga and Tutu as Maga had sprained her knee two days before we left. We brought Tim, our friend and Rock Steady employee with us to help set up and strike the stage and lighting that we took with us for the little hula show we put on with our family at Skye's Graduation party. At one point, I was going to our time share at the Cancun Resort with two arms full of double chocolate chip blended frapps for the kids and as we were walking through the lobby, I lost my balance and dropped (although it kinda look like I threw them) all 6 frapps with whip on the floor. I was mortified. It was a little stressful being self proclaimed coordinator extraordinaire for so many travelers but in the end, any time with my fam is a good time.
