Best Weekend Ever!!!!!!!

I am such a happy girl this very Sunday. Things are going simply swell for me! I just came off a great split second decision vacation to Las Vegas. And now I am gearing out for a weekend full of rehearsal and WORKING OUT!

Today I would simply like to share with you the story of my vacation. Also so I can write down my adventures so I can go back and remember them.

It was a beautiful Friday. We are sitting in the mall with Ruth and she says, "i wonder if Danny Gokey is on tour right now? So I decided I would go home and look it up, because I LOVE me some Danny Gokey. I opened up his site and saw that he was going to be in Vegas on a 4 day stint. Are you kidding me Danny? I want to see you and you are going to Las Vegas. So I text Danielle this. Well Danny will be in Vegas tomorrow........ In response I get a phone call that goes something like this. He is going to Vegas tomorrow, does that mean you wanna go? Well, ummm yea, duh, sure? So anyways, about 4 hours later we are packed up and on our way to Las Vegas.

We stayed that night in Cedar City with some relatives. The drive down consisted a lot of quoting Will & Grace, and singing Glee. Oh and also driving through some sketchy fog! That night we slept.... kinda? It was some of the worst sleep we had in years.  After breakfast we were finally on our way to see our Danny. We got a hotel room for a whole $27! Once checked in we went and parked in the parking garage. This parking garage happened to be just about on the opposite world of the hotel tower. So we walked just about 2 miles through the smelly casino to get to our room. Well hey, I needed the exercise.

Once to our room we decided we needed some food and to find Danielle some shoes for the night. For dinner we ate at the ever delicious Pei Wei! Once through the mall we made our way over to DSW shoes. Let me tell you something too, Danielle has the most expensive taste. This is because every shoe the girl liked in the whole 7 football field place was the most expensive. Thus, Danielle leaves without any shoes!

We finally are now ready and set to go watch Danny Gokey! After what seemed like a 9 hour drive, we finally see the sign!!!! We have now become 14 year old girls. EEEEE! Danny Gokey tonight!!!! I was a little dissapointed because we had missed the opportunity to buy backstage passes! But, I was still sooooo excited to see this man! On the other hand I was particulary excited because well, this day had been so lucky already that I knew only good things would continue to happen!

Valet takes the car, we get in line for will call, took a pee, and sat in our magnificent seats. We have been waiting for this moment for a long, long time. Danny Gokey comes out and put on a magnificent concert! He tells us the adorable story of how he proposed to Sophia, and how he is running is charity. This man is the whole package. Then he is almost done when he says, "my manager says I can sign at the merchandise table after the concert for as many people as time allows." I turn to Danielle, and ask if he really said that and yes he did!!!! We decided we would run AFAP "as fast as possible" to the merchandise table. We are about 15th in line and one of our biggest dreams are about to come true. We buy are posters, have the camera ready and out he comes! It is finally our turn, he signs our posters and takes a picture with Danielle! (cutest picture ever Mrs. Gokey) Ha and then I go to take a picture with him and the camera is our of memory, but that is besides the point! Well, we have just met one of our most favorite singers! WE ARE IN SEVENTH HEAVEN!

Once we had grown up to maybe about 17 years old we decide to move on with our night. Remember when I said we were very tired because the previous nights sleep sucked? Well either on eof us had taken a picture by the famous Las Vegas sign at the end of the strip,. So we park and walk up to the sign, and find Elvis hanging out there. Elvis proceeds to tell us how cool he is and that he has been on t.v. for over 15 years. (so why are you hanging out by the Vegas sign:) He convinces us he has to take our picture and make us give him 5 bucks. Ah haha he was the most strange thing ever! He sand to danielle and all!

At this point I was so excited, weirded out and tired and one person could be. So we decide we need Del Taco before bed. We pull up to the order board and there is a black truck filled with white trash. This was a modified little truck of some sorty. We are sitting their talking waiting for the food when we all of a sudden hear a hissing sound. THIS CAR HAD A HYDROLICS SYSTEM! Haha they were making the car go up and down. I was about to pee my pants laughing.

Well we finally made it to sleep! This had officially become one of the best nights of my life! Well 300 miles later, Danielle's windshield wiper flying off the car in mid drive, and a snow storm later, I am finally home. It was literally 48 hours of lots of laughs and some of the most fun I have ever had!
