adventures with Dad

Last week I had a slight break in my teaching - which was lucky...because my Mom had foot surgury last Monday, and I was able to get away from LA and head to LV to help out Mom while she was confined to bed/wheelchair.
I was really glad to get a little time at home. And of course, Dad and I found some spare time to get away and have a little adventure. I just thought this was going to be an outing to our regular breakfast outing, the Polaris Cafe and then taking a fancy pen Dad had given me that needed fixing to Paradise Pen...but Dad created a little adventure out of it (like he's so good at doing)...with pictures to ensue...thus, here you enjoy the goofy spoils of our adventure :)

Can ya find me?! Entering Paradise Pen at the Fashion Show Mall...I haven't been to this mall for years. I used to LOVE malls, but tend to stay away from them now...this one's pretty posh...it even has a runway fashion show...only in Vegas!

Dad buying a little prize in Betsy Johnson...

Browsing one of my favorite home stores, Z Gallerie...

And checking out his newest building project - the Veer Towers at City Center (those two yellow-checkered ones that twist)...


This week it's been back to work - starting up classes at yet another school! One more month of this crazy teaching schedule!...but I sure am looking forward to an extra day off this weekend!
