MWC tournament in Las Vegas



Scott and I and his parents just spent a long weekend in Las Vegas at the Mountain West Conference basketball tournament--and the UTES WON!!! We actually went to six games in three days--whew! We were even nice and clapped in all the right places when BYU played. It was interesting to watch the other schools' bands, fans, cheerleaders, coaches, etc. Each was so different! We decided next time we just need to take Jackson since he's such a HUGE basketball fan. Only a couple of games were televized on Dish Network, so he was calling throughout all the others for score updates.

The sunshine, shopping, Sephora (ah--heaven!) and even Scott's sore feet afterwards were also highlights. He was a good sport about taking me where I wanted to go--yes, even Sephora has stuff for guys! Everyone let me play tourist and walked the strip on Saturday night to see the fountains at the Bellagio and the volcano at the Mirage and of course people watch. I believe it when they say the city's population doubles on the weekend. Where do all those people come from? It was nuts. Very fun, but nuts.
