And good times were had by all!!!!

We traveled to K.C. last weekend to see yet another Pitt State game. The tailgate party was awesome! Just wish I could say the same about the game. Needless to say, Pitt State lost by a score that won't be revealed in this blog, but a good time was had by all anyway when our whole family gets together. After the game our weary Pitt State gang headed to our room at Harrah's Hotel and Casino pictured above. After resting in the room for a short time, we headed down to eat at Toby Keith's, one of the restaurants inside the casino. Again, to the room for a short rest and then headed down to do business at the casino itself. My husband decided that Texas could not play football unless he was watching them, so he opted to stay with the kids in the room. I found my father at the poker table (watched for a while) and then decided to try my luck at the slots. I graciously left $20 to the one armed bandits, tried to find the rest of the gang (without much luck), fought the biggest crowd I have seen and with watery-smoke filled eyes headed back to the room to gather myself. Just made it to the room and received a call on the cell(Where are you?). O.K., so gave up on resting much and went back with replenished funds in hand(and cell phone) to face the crowds. Turns out that a cell phone also becomes a locator beacon for the lost. O.K., now it was off again to try my luck with the spinning wheel gods. It seems that you can spin for hours on the 1 cent machines(I actually did quite well). After that we spent some more time at the video poker machines(pretty much sucked at these). Seems you can have hours of fun for only $60(a small donation to the cause), however the noise and crowds were getting to me so I decided to call it a night. The next morning we had a wonderful brunch at the buffet in the casino row of restaurants and then headed back home. It was such a fun and exhausting weekend all at the same time. Seem you go on vacation only to come back home to get any rest!
