The Lion King & Family Time
There is one thing that's for sure.... This last week has been filled with unlimited family time. There have been cooking lessons and all-you-can-eat sushi! From late nights and Rock Band marathons to numerous walks through casinos and deathly SPOON matches, we have been together. All five of us.
Yesterday came the highlight for me! Of course, UNC won a great game against Maryland. BUT there was even more! We went to see the Lion King yesterday afternoon. I've wanted to see this show ever since it hit the scene in New York, and now it is showing daily in Vegas at Mandalay Bay. It was fantastic. The music! The costumes! The giraffes and the elephants! And, of course, the story! Pumbaa & Timon were a hoot, and Simba & Nala were precious! I felt like a little kid seeing the Disney movie for the first time. It was certainly I treat I had not expected.
Today, one of our five will be going back home. While it's a little melancholy, I have set my sights toward the next adventure! By this time next week, I will be back in my second home... Haiti. I can hardly wait. This year has been full of overwhelming excitement and joy! How is it even possible? One thing is for certain...I am blessed. Blessed to have a wonderful family. Blessed to have amazing opportunities. I am so very thankful.
