Vegas Vacation

This past week we went to Las Vegas for Top Gun school. It was a convention for Ruffin's work. We had so much fun! Gracee got to stay home with Aunt Ollie and help take care of Grandma Roonie. Emme went with us and was a little trooper the entire time.

We flew to Vegas on Monday the 13th and were met at the Airport by some people that work for WFG in Vegas. They were kind enough to drive us to our hotel. We stayed at the Paris which was where the convention was located. It was really nice to stay at the same place as where all of our meetings were held. Monday after we checked into our hotel rooms we went to Gilbert and Mary's house where we ate some really yummy dinner and swam in their pool.

On Tuesday the Convention started at 1:00 and went until 6:00. Emme was good during the conference, we only had to take her out a couple of times. All the speakers were excellent and had us on the edge of our seats the entire time. The speakers were men who are very high up in the company. They were very motivating and got us excited about WFG. After a dinner break we met back in the Conference room for an Awards ceremony. Ruffin and I got to walk across the stage because they recognized those who had got their Senior Associate Promotion. So YEAH for Ruffin! The Awards ceremony went late so I finally took Emme up to the room at 10:00. Ruffin stayed until 11p.m. There are alot of people in the company doing great things. They recognized 2,000 of the 6,000 that were there.
Wednesday was another all day event starting at 8 a.m. Today's schedule included a company called afterburners who spoke to us. It is a company of jet pilots that do motivational speaking on being a good leader and running a good business. We got done with the conference around 7p.m. We then went to dinner with the majority of our team.
Thursday we had the whole day to play in Vegas. We went swimming, site seeing, and shopping but no gambling... We had fun hanging out and being with the team.

Friday we got home and Gracee was extremely glad to see us and we were happy to see her. Prior to leaving for our trip Gracee kept telling us "Daddy bring me a lollipop and mommy bring me a toy." We don't know where she came up with the lollipop idea but we found the perfect one. She absolutely loved it and couldn't get it out of the wrapper fast enough to start licking!
