A couple weeks ago a friend asked if I wanted to go to Las Vegas for a weekend and see The Lion King on broadway. Of course! We got a couple other people together and planned to go this last weekend. It was a wonderful break from school and work! We left on Thursday afternoon in a very nice rental car, which made the long drive almost bearable. We stopped in St George and played around in Zions. It was beautiful! I have actually never traveled south of Springville/Provo area! I flew to Texas this last summer, but other than that I haven't seen much of the south west. Southern Utah was very pretty and still warm. We spent two days in Vegas, and I would love to go back again. A lot of people said that by the end of the first day you would just want to leave, but I can people watch for hours. I guess my mom didn't teach me not to stare at people! The first place we went was the Pawn Stars Shop, and it was pretty awesome. Every time I go home we have a Pawn Stars, Swamp People and Dancing with the Stars marathon. We watch all the episodes I've been
missing since last time I was home. I secretly love it, but don't tell my brother or he'll make us watch Swamp People a
ll day long, and that could get old fast. Sadly, I did not see Chumlee working in the shop, but it was still worth a walk through of the store. Saturday night we saw the play, and it was so beautiful. There was so many colors and intricate details on the costumes. There was a little boy playing the young Simba, and he was only 9 years old! I couldn't believe that a 9 year old could remember all those lines and movements. My favorite part were the birds. They would swing the tall poles with colorful birds at the top, and at one point the whole theater was swirling with colorful birds. I loved it. We couldn't take pictures or anything, but it was so colorful and beautiful. It was looooong drive back home Sunday, and I think I slept for most of it. It was a great weekend. I did a lot of playing and am ready to finish out the semester now. :)

Oh! I got my grade back from my teaching block class, and, for once, I am no longer the bottom half that makes the top half possible. 98% A :D
