Las Vegas - "The 21st Day of September"!!

Beka's last day of tour was September 21st ... 
she was leaving for a week in Ireland on the 22nd!
Tim and I drove to Vegas on September 18th to have 
an anniversary (41st) and Birthday celebration there
before driving Beka's car and dog home!

We were 30 min from Vegas when we got a text
from Beka that she was on as Glinda that night!
She got us tickets to go ...
4 hours till showtime!!!
We got to go backstage before the
show in Glinda's dressing room!
So special ... a first!
So amazing to be at this performance ... 
Video of her final bows as Glinda!
We explored The Strip the next day ...
Fun to see all the gorgeous resorts/casinos!
This pic is so fitting for Tim ... hahaha!
Amazing Decor ... everywhere!
That night for our anniversary we went out
to dinner then to 
What an amazing show!  A treat!
We had a rest day the next day.
Wonderful to relax all day ...
We needed it!!

Saturday the 21st was Beka's last day...
We were planning to be at her last show!
What she didn't know was that all the siblings were
on their way to surprise her!!!
They had some time together on the strip...
Then got to the hotel in time to get ready and prep
for THE SURPRISE!  She was planning to come to our 
room between shows for a light dinner ...
What she wasn't planning was for her sibling to
pop out of the bathroom to the tune of
"The 21st Day of September"!!
Clay made this little funny clip!  hahaha!
We had an hour celebrating before heading
 to the theater together to all see her last show!
Last show ... last bows!
After the show ...  ready to celebrate!
We got to the Bellagio Fountains in time for the
last show of the night!
Then had fun exploring the strip!
We went out to eat the next morning before
everyone had to go their own way ...
Beka to Ireland
James to Los Angeles
Deb, Clay & Rachel to Phoenix
Tim and I stayed one more day!
What a special 24 hours! 
Forever memories made!
Deb made a compilation video of our time together!
Jonah, who stayed home with their 4 kids so
Deb could go, made this ... a great finale!
Forever memory!
