13 things I learned while on my trip to Las Vegas
1) MAKE FRIENDS WITH YOUR NAVIGATIONAL DEVICE BEFORE YOU LEAVE ON TRIP..
2) IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO TRY TO NAVIGATE WHILE DRIVING
3) AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE VERY ENTERTAINING..IN LOTS OF WAYS…
4) THERE IS A MCDONALS ON ALMOST EVERY CORNER IN LAS VEGAS, BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN THAT YOU SHOULD EAT THERE ALMOST EVERY MEAL..
5) STETSON IS NOT VERY GOOD AT KEEPING ME AWAKE ON THE WAY TO VEGAS BUT VERY GOOD ON THE WAY HOME
6) DON’T GIVE STOCKTON TOO MUCH INFO ABOUT THE WILD WAYS OF VEGAS, AND THE ALL THE HOBO’S THERE, IT CONFUSES AND STRESSES HIM OUT..
7) I AM VERY SHORT
8) NEVER SIT IN ANY PARKING LOTS IN VEGAS, YOU MAY BE CHASED DOWN BY A GROUP OF MEXICANS!!! AND THEN YOU HAVE TO FLOOR IT TO GET AWAY WHILE EVERYONE IN THE CAR IS TOTALLY FREAKED OUT!!
9) A SHORTER, ALL ASIAN BASKETBALL TEAM IS NOT A GOOD IDEA..
10) BLACK PEOPLE HAVE BIG BUTS AND I CANNOT LIE..
11) ON THE WAY HOME, WE DECIDED THAT IF WE COULD COME BACK AGAIN AS ANYONE WE WANT, WE WOULD ALL LIKE TO BE “BLACK MEN”…IM JUST SAYING
12) DOUBLE CHECK WHAT DAY IS ACTUALLY THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL AT LEAST 1 WEEK IN ADVANCE
13) I LOVE BLUFFDALE UTAH

So I loaded my three youngest and Corbin Stetson’s friend into the car headed for Vegas. It about killed me and I about killed everyone on the road..I couldn’t keep myself awake.. But I think once we got there the kids had fun. I spent most of the time lost, driving around with my phone in my hand trying to follow google maps. I sort of adopted 2 other 13 year olds for the duration and they pretty much had to get us back to the Hotel at night. I lost my keys for ½ hour and thank goodness the M&M store people found them since it was 112 degrees outside and I had 6 boys with me. Stetson’s “Pump & Run” basketball team lost the first 3 games which put them in brackets, but won the next 2 which somehow made them the champs in their bracket..??? Whatever… So I thought the little kids started school on Tuesday, but I was wrong and they started on Monday so they missed their first day of school.. We made it home safe and I didn’t even get tired on the way home.. However, I did hear “geese mom, so far this trip sucks” and “Mom, you always screw everything up” and last but not least… “Look at your big fat greasy toe”………
