It's set!  We've got our flight...we've got our hotel...I've got the vacation time approved...we're going to Vegas!  I booked everything yesterday, got a deal on airline tickets and as soon as I got them under $300 and appropriate times I booked the tickets and rooms.  Fortunately the tickets are free...well they use our travel miles, the rooms...not so free.  Looking at the rates for surrounding weekends we did pretty good especially considering it's presidents day weekend when we're going.  We'll be staying at the Bellagio for two nights and the New York, New York the other two, the Bellagio gets to be REALLY expensive on Saturday and Sunday night so we decided to go somewhere cheaper for the last two nights.  It'll give us a chance to experience a little more while we're there...and who knows I might piss enough money away at the casino that they want to keep us there the whole time...you never know. 

I need to add that Joni's uncle Ted isn't doing so well and I ask that you please say a quick prayer for him.  He has artery blockages near the heart which is making it really difficult to breathe and the open heart surgery he was supposed to have Monday has been cancelled for reasons unknown.  He's currently in ICU where he was transferred between Tuesday and this morning.   Also say a quick prayer for Mike, Heather and Reilley as I'm sure this is difficult on them all.  You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
