Should Have Taken OHmommy With Me

We charged the camera. We brought the charger with us. We even remembered the memory card that was in the printer. We brought the camera. We took no photos. Not a one. Well, I take that back. I took three photos for strangers. You know how you see the person alone in a gorgeous location and their partner is taking the photo and you feel bad for them? I offered and made three couples very happy. If you don't offer, they will have photos and photos of each person alone. At least they will go home with one nice shot of the couple. They at least have one more photo than we have.


We weren't much better on our original honeymoon. We only have about 20 or so that we took ourselves. Sad. I love photos. We just don't think to take the camera with us. It was only on our way home from MGM on our last night that my hubby looked at me and said "We forgot the camera again." I honestly thought of running up to our room and bringing it down to snap 20 photos so I had a way to document our fantastic trip. But if you've been to Vegas, you know how much walking you do. My feet were so sore that I just couldn't make my way up to the 26th floor and down the long corridor. We walked miles and miles on our last day. Miles.


We had a fantastic trip. We ate at Tao which was amazing. We saw Love, a Cirque du Soleil celebration of the Beatles. Fantastic. I also got to see Prison Break being filmed at Planet Hollywood. Very cool. We ended up making a little money gambling and took a bump on the way home. We scored two $250 vouchers. Sweet. All in all, it was a wonderful way to spend time with my husband and reconnect. Thanks honey. But next time, we need a photographer. OHmommy, will can you come and take some photos for us?

You won't even have to twist my arm. :) Glad you had a wonderful time. I thought about you all weekend long.

Just dropped off Murphy at the kennel and our cab will be here in an hour. We are getting in house before R's birthday. See you then!

I'm glad you had such a wonderful time. I would have loved to see some pictures but I understand. The one time I went to Vegas was with my almost fiancee (bought the ring but hadn't proposed yet) and this was before everyone had digital cameras. I didn't ever develop the roll of film because we broke up very shortly afterwards.

Glad you had a great time...made a little money and got some vouchers. Most importantly, you made memories, right? You can go back and take more pictures!!!

That was nice of you to take pics of couples, too! I hate it when we have pictures of both of us separate in front of the same thing!

Sounds like a wonderful time!

I'm always offering to take pictures for people too. ;)

I love the line "we even remembered the memory card." Brilliant!

I have never been to Vegas, but my husband has several times for business trips. He says that I would love it!! I am glad you had fun...gambling stresses me out!! I would rather go shopping, but my husband likes it!!

I seem to forget the camera when it matters and get stuck taking pix with my cell phone, so the quality is always lousy.
