Wednesday morning we were up EARLY to be at Caesar's Palace for The View live from Las Vegas! I was able to get ABC VIP tickets from a friends' father in law (thanks Kelly and Roger!!!) Our seats were AMAZING; front row..feet from Jessica Simpson, Elisabeth, Barbara and Whoopi (Joy and Sherri too!)
Me, Roger (aka Pop-pop) and my mom
Elisabeth Hasselbeck and I
She was totally squishing me; in a good way of course. She sat down during a commercial break on the step in front of me and we had a looooong conversation about the military, being mom's, our kids, etc. She was AWESOME, just as I suspected. Really down to earth and approachable. She told me to thank all of the people in my life who are in the military or support a military member...so THANK YOU from Elisabeth!
Whoopi
I just love Whoopi. She always has the best advice and words of wisdom for the younger ladies on The View. During the Cirque de Soleil performance another woman and I were pulled from our seats so the camera man could sit in our place. We were given seats near the large boom camera (is that what they are called?) and Whoopi was standing there watching the performance. I motioned to her that there was an empty seat near me and she came over and sat down! I made a total FOOL of myself; but that's okay..not like I'll ever see her again! We ooh'd and ahhh'd over the contortionists and all the stuff they were doing!
The guest performer was Jessica Simpson...she was like this >< close to me!
After the show we went in to Caesar's Palace for some gambling and I proceeded to drop MAJOR cash...but, it was a casinos money anyway so no biggie! From there we walked down the strip towards New York New York to an In n Out...
More on that adventure to come.....
