The family at Vegas for a wedding

I went to Las Vegas, NV with my sister Sandy & Rueben. We drove down in my sisters car, an eight hour drive. We arrived in the early evening and checked in to a time-share at the Grandview on Nov. 6th.  Sandy and Rueben treated me so well, they even put off the show they wanted to see because they new I wanted to go to the Mirage and see the Beatles inspired LOVE by CIRQUE DU SOLEIL. It was a show well worth seeing. Wonderful acrobatics from the floor to the ceiling, no safety nets or harnesses. The sound system was awesome with Beatle music playing like I have never heard it before. We went to a Time-share promotion on Monday, it lasted about 90 min. with breakfast served in the casino buffet prior to  the spiel, which by the way was a very good deal. For listening to the presentation we got $100 tickets to the LOVE show for $25 apiece, we saved $300 on that. Tuesday was my Birthday and I got a year older. The wedding was held at Treasure Island on 11-11-11, there were over 20,000 weddings in Vegas that day, Brides in gowns all over town. My brother Skip and his wife Frieda flew in from Hot Springs, Arkansas, My other sister (the bride's grandmother) Dottie and her husband Jim, drove over from Oceanside,CA the same day we arrived. The bride Brandi looked absolutely marvelous and I am so happy for her. My brother looked really good for his age ( I had to say it, it's a long story) Both of my sisters looked very good. I thank Rueben especially, he went out of his way to make my stay a good one. We left Sunday morning early and arrived in Stockton at 5pm. It is so good to be home that really wore me out.
I would appreciate comments on this post, especially from family members.
