Las Vegas 2012 ~ Day 1 (Part Two)

Once the Mister and I arrived to The Venetian we noticed the gondolas outside. We could ride one outside or inside.

I preferred the inside one since it was so hot outside. We stepped inside and I noticed the ceiling.

The Mister was just as amazed as I was and wanted us to go downstairs so I can get a full shot of the ceiling.

We then asked for directions where we can ride the gondola inside and headed the way we were directed. As soon as walked into the hall we were amazed. The Mister again was amazed.

He mentioned how beautiful this was and how impressed he was of the beauty of it. He loved how when we walked, it was as if the clouds were moving with us. He was right, the way the pained the clouds on the ceiling it did look like they were drifting some. We came across one of the live statues. She was amazing!

While we were on the path to the gondola ride we stopped to get some Italian ice cream and sat on a bench next to another live statue.

We noticed some people dressed up walking towards our direction. One even commented on the Mister's hat and asked if we were from Iowa because she has relatives living there.

After the show we then headed to buy our tickets for the gondola ride. We had a very nice gondolier; he had an Italian accent and would sing to us every now and then romantic Italian songs. He also shared with us the stars that enjoyed the gondola rides as well as who was married in one. We really enjoyed interaction with him.

This was my favorite Hotel we went to while we were in Las Vegas, it was the Mister's too.

Many Blessings,

Jolene

Slow Down - Stay A Little Bit

Repost: March 12, 2017 previous blog Now, I look forward to the season of life I am in. Watching my boys becoming responsible young adults/adults. I love the relationship I have with them but I also miss the days they are little from time to time. Life is definitely changing, always changing. I love my new position at work. I am finally getting used to the "normal" hours and I will be able to dedicate a couple of nights to my blogging again and reading my favorite bloggers/friends. In the midst of it all, I have seriously became old ... my body aches so much any more. I am seeing a doctor to assist with the pain. The end of March and the beginning of April are my worst time of year. This year I hope I am able to concentrate on the memories and love of my Dad and concentrate on Emily's baby shower for our new little soon grandchildren. I think I am battling some Empty Nest feelings. My boys are growing up and they reach out to me very little. NoNo will be graduating

Thankful Thursday ~ Sierra Jo Dominguez

I have been making my plans to complete our yarden next year. Yes, that was a "y" in place of a "g". I follow Sierra Jo Dominguez on Instagram. She is another person who saved me. I love following her. She is a beautiful soul. She has fake cooking shows, backyard gardening, home repair and remodeling, she shares her life, and her new passion for pottery. She is a Christian as well and just like Tia Bee Stokes, she is real and spreads positive message. Sierra shared how she was creating a yarden and she inspired me not only to increase my Butterfly Garden but rebuild the backyard to our yarden last Summer, I will later post about the beginning of the yarden. I am excited to see her yarden but it has been placed on hold because growing a pottery business takes a lot of time when she is also a Mama of seven children, two of then are toddlers. She is homes schooling the children. Our kitten, Bella even loves Sierra Jo Dominguez. This was her small box of Joy. I bough
