Vegas Baby

Well I went to Vegas in January! I went to the CBR (Championship Bull Riders) World Finals with Robin and her family....and when I say family, I mean FAMILY. I love hanging out with them because there is soooooo many! I dont have brothers or sisters, so I dont really understand sibling love....or a huge Christmas with grandma, aunts, uncles and kids everywhere. But they do! Anyways, two of Robin's brothers were riding in the finals, so we all went.

It was a BIG step for me to get on a plane without Jared!! But I survived. I did a lot of walking around alone...even rode on elevators alone!
Vegas is big and bright!! We walked on the strip one day, but mostly we were in our hotel/casino. That is also where the bull riding finals were held, so it was very much like a small town. Since it was away from the strip, there wasnt a lot of tourists....just the people who were there for the bull riding. So it was like you knew everyone. I guess that is what made me feel safe enough to wander around. Even got to play Black Jack with Tuff Hedeman!! This picture was after the awards ceremony.


After returing home...there was a whirl wind of drama! I still havent really....I dont know, recovered or figured out exactly what I feel about it all.

Overall Vegas was great fun! I definatly learned and experienced new things and hopefully together it will give me the strength to move forward....even if I dont understand why I have to.
