KISS THE SINGLE LIFE GOOD-BYE!our all-time favorite SUNS player, Dan Majerle.
our cute waiter!
flava-flave (is that how you would spell it?)
Surfer Boy Kelly Slater (again I don't know if that's how you spell his name)!
Our "shuttle driver" at the convention. Not that I thought he was totally cute, but just doing a little "single networking".
As some people already know, I am almost single again (nothing to be excited about, but I’m just telling so that you will understand why it was so fun to take the pictures above)! I have like 5 potential boyfriends after this last weekend { wink }. I met them all in VEGAS!
I went with my mom & 2 of my sisters, Suzanne & Alisse. The only thing that could have made the trip better is if Auburn was there, but it was a bad weekend for her to leave town. Anyway - back to the boys: Suzanne (especially) was on the lookout for me the whole weekend. She calls it "single networking". Just about every time we saw a guy or group of guys that appeared to be single & cute - or totally dorky, she would say "single network!" The funniest thing was when I got my picture taken with "flave" - she said, "can my sister get a picture with you, 'cause she’s single now". The reason we went to Las Vegas was for the ABC (All Baby & Child) convention. It was a business trip for She’s Got It All, but it was the perfect weekend to be there. Sunday night was the MTV music video awards so there were a lot of celebrities in town to stalk out. We stayed up way too late on Saturday & Sunday night, just waiting outside of places (with our cameras in hand) for celebrities. So, now you know that I didn’t really "go out" with Dan Majerle. He was just walking by us on Saturday night & luckily my mom spotted him. He was not anyone that other people were excited about, but he was probably my favorite person to see (which is why I am loving that we got a picture of him, and I got to be right next to him). Obviously I edited the picture for my last post to make it look like him & I were just hangin out. Here are a few more pictures of celebrities, and by the way I never knew who any of them were. My sisters had to tell me everyone. But it was still fun knowing they were someone famous. I think I might need to watch more TV. By the way, Suzanne & Alisse have more pictures of people that I don’t have, so check out their blogs for more celebrity sightings!
Alisse with part of Maroon 5. This was the second night in a row that we saw them.
If anyone knows who this is, please let me know. People around us were acting like he was famouns so I took a picture, an extreme close-up on accident!
Kelly Slater with Suzanne. He was really nice and very cute!
Alisse & my mom saw "A.C. Slater" and he even shook Alisse's hand. Unfortuneately Suzanne & I missed out on him. We were busy stalking someone else at the time.
Can you see Maroon 5 in the background?
Dan Majerle & a girl from a local news station.
On Saturday night it took us over an hour to go about 2 miles on the strip. The traffic was really bad. For part of the way Flava Flave was right next to us on a scooter. At first he was trying to pass other cars, so the police were trying to tell him to stop. Then the police realized who he was and they were all shaking his hand and excited to see him. It was funny to see everyone run toward him once they saw that the cops must be talking to someone famous. It was so cool to be driving right next to someone famous although I had no idea who he was before this.
Supposedly this is some nasty guy but I still took his picture since he's a celebrity. (Seriously, why do I care?)
Sunday night my mom took us to see MAMA MIA. It was so fun and a great show. Of course we love the ABBA music now & rocked out to it on the way home in the car. Thanks again Mom!!
Just to prove that we DID actually do some business while we were there - here’s some pictures of the show and a few of our favorite things we saw there.
cute cute frames that we've ordered for our next trunk show!
Can you see that stroller contraption in the background? I could not stop laughing at it. It's a stroller with a little bike-type thing for an older child to ride on the back.
new cute colors for the table & chair sets (and other things) that we carry
And more pictures that I just have to share because they’re funny:
BORE-ING! I have to tell a quick story - as we were driving through the canyon on the way home, there were people stopped at the scenic areas, taking pictures like tourists do. We had our windows rolled down & Suzanne yelled out her window, "BORE-ING!" I am still laughing about it.
I took a million pictures of the strip the night we got there. This one was so perfect because it shows the lights AND a limo with a newly-married couple in it!
Suzanne being a tourist herself and getting her camera ready to take pictures of the strip.
We thought we could fool people in to thinking we were celebrities the first night we were there. Then the next night we saw people doing the same thing and thought they looked so stupid wearing their sunglasses indoors to try to look famous.
3 smokin-hot ladies! (If you've seen the Cox commercial you know why I'm saying that.)
Nice try Susan!
During Mamma Mia, Suzanne got busted for having her camera on! But this is a picture of her trying to sneakily get a picture of Sloth's mom in front of us. Check out her blog to see who Sloth's mom is - I'm sure she'll post it!
Alisse, I'm telling the bishop!
What the??
I promise I don't take a picture of every snuggie I see. Suzanne & Alisse had my camera for this one.
We named these girls "The Muffins". They were getting ready to go into the club.
Romantic!
That's a no-no Suzanne.
At the convention, we each had a ticket for 10 seconds at the money vault. We didn't even have to go door-to-door and sell cookie dough or chocolate candy to get to do this. And, since we waited until the last day to do it, our ticket was good for 2 turns! NICE!
My mom got a total of $6.00 I think. It's harder than you would think. You can't pull your hand out in between, and you can't scoop. You have to trap the money in some fingers and use the other fingers to catch money.
I got $3.00 on my first turn & $4.00 on my second turn. Having extra-large hands pays off sometimes.
Suzanne was nervous so she stuck her hands in her armpits for a few seconds. I think she got $5 total, probably because her & I are opposites and she has little hands.
Alisse tied with me at $7.00. If you look close you can see a big smile on her face, because the money vault equaled free lunch on the ride home!
Oh yeah, this was my other potential boyfriend that I met in Vegas. Cutie!
