Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! I am so happy to be having the chance to be writing to you again after 5 days. I tried to get on my blog and write while I was away but the dang thing wouldn't let me in and it made me so sad. How are you doing in Heaven? I hope that all is wonderful and you are just as happy as can be. I miss you so much. I missed writing to you with all that has been going on in the last several days. I want to tell you about my 4 day weekend to Las Vegas but first I want to say thank you for watching over us as we flew there and back home. I know I couldn't see you out I kept looking out the window of the airplane and I just knew you where there with Mom. It gave me so much comfort in knowing that you were right there along for the ride!
Ok... so about the weekend... Left Texas around 5 am and was on the airplane by 6:30 am and departed at 7:10 am. We arrived in Las Vegas at 10:30 am but because of the time change it was only 8:30 am. Boy was I ever so tired when we arrived because we had already been up for 8 hours. We got to the hotel that we were staying at and found out that check in wasn't until 1 pm. We decided to go to breakfast and arrived back at the hotel around 12 noon. We decided to just sit for the hour and relax and wait until we realized that the room would not be ready until 3 pm. We opted for a different room at that point because I was falling asleep. Got into our room and we napped for a few hours. Got up thought we would go out but we both were so tired that we ordered room service and stayed in. I was asleep by 7:30 pm that evening and slept until 8:00 am the next morning.
Friday we were up early and we went on the strip and did the tourist sight seeing stuff. The Paris Hotel is so beautiful and Mom was just so happy being there. I was so comfortable and it made me smile. We did a lot of walking that day. The weather was really sunny and in the 70's. No complaints from me. It was the just right weather for sure. We ventured back to the hotel around 5:30 pm and was going to relax for an hour and then head to dinner by 7:00 pm... that failed because Mark was so tired, had a headache and was feeling ill. Once again we stayed in and ordered room service. Mark was asleep by 7:00 pm and because I was not tired I stayed up and watched tv until 9:00 pm and then I wet to bed.
Saturday had finally arrived the day of the concert and I was super excited. We decided to go to Old Town Vegas to see what it was like. Wasn't what we expected but it was just a relaxing day for us. Arrived back to the hotel and decided to go grab something to eat.. perhaps an early dinner. Got back to the hotel a couple hours later to relax and get ready to go to the concert and Mom was sick. The worst possible thing to happen. We were supposed to leave by 4:00 pm to head to the show and look around that hotel but we never left until 5:30 pm and arrived 1/2 hour before the show. I was bound and determined that I was NOT going to be sick during the show. The concert was amazing! I will admit that I did have tears in my eyes when she was on stage. I just couldn't believe that I was there and seeing her. It was a dream come true for Mom. I have waited so long for this. Celine Dion was just incredible. Our seats were wonderful. 9 rows from the stage and I could see every detail of her. That is how close we were. I was tickled pink. A huge smile on my face for 2 hours! Made the whole trip worth wild to be there that exact moment. After the show we walked around for a couple hours and headed back to the hotel. Got in at 12 midnight and then went to bed.
Sunday we got up early and checked out of the hotel. Did some gambling and then headed to the airport. Stayed there until 4?:45 pm when we boarded our airplane and arrived back in Texas at 10:30 pm.
Las Vegas as just a fun experience for Mom. Something I feel that everyone should experience just once in there life time. I know that you would have loved it. The atmosphere was just something else. All walks of life there and it was great. The lights at night were really pretty and cool and the water fountain show at one of the hotels was so neat to see during the day and at night. I know you would have loved it. You would have gone nuts over the gambling and all the girls too..lol ;). That is a place I would have loved to have gone with you and enjoyed together. I think that in some ways you were with Mom. I talked to you all the time. I hope that you heard me.
I missed writing to you as I said earlier. I didn't see any stars at all the nights that I was gone but there was not one time that I did not whisper to you. No stars were out last night either here in Texas. I did again whisper to you. I will do it again tonight. Be listening for Mom. I love you with all my heart and soul. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You still are my everything.
I hope you have a peaceful evening tonight and may it be all that you want it to be. Fly high and fly free my precious son. I love you and miss you. Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
PS. Thanks for watching over Aunt Beck & John as they traveled home and please watch over Meme. She needs some prayers and TLC. Thanks Tyler xoxoxo!
