If you don’t have dinner plans for Thursday you guys should try the Border Grill at Mandalay Bay if you haven’t already. It’s one of my favorites – great food, great drinks, and very charming outdoor-seating atmosphere! Have fun and fly safe as always.
so who are you on the road with? traveling out of a suitcase, fun & tiring, i’m sure!
Thanks for keeping us posted on your schedule. Good thing you have a big suitcase!! Love, Mom

Mom - jess…I just happened to check your Blog. I just love it when you post something, even just a walk to the local restuarants. It’s the 22nd here also, but only 12:30 pm. Liz, John, her parents, and Megan and I are going to some of the Tacoma museums around 5:00 pm tonight. Should be interesting to see how many people are milling around the city. Glad to hear you are having a good time. We all love you and wish the happiest holdiay and Merry Christmas to you and Jeffrey.
Love, Mom
