Leaving Las Vegas

So the saying goes, "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas," but I am actually happy to bring a few things home from our trip to 'sin city'. Here are a few that I am glad didn't stay in Vegas:
desert sand on the bottom of my shoes
the craving for a home-cooked meal
a heart-shaped rock found in the middle of nowhere
two cheesy kids' t-shirts
a new appreciation for age-appropriate clothing
a too expensive but cheap hair brush
lots of unused quarters
the thrill of riding a roller coaster
a sunburn that has already faded away
dry, straight hair but much too dry skin
a feeling of freedom
somewhat improved bags under my eyes
ticket stubs to KA
again knowing why I married my husband
some laugh lines and I am sure a couple of pounds - all well worth it
