Birthday's and Mother's Day

Yesterday the whole family got together and went to Fort McDowell Casino, we were celebrating several things. 1st was Paul's Birthday and Dad's Birthday which both were in April. We are a little slow at celebrations lately.  We were also celebrating Mother's Day as well. 

Tiffany made Grandma 2 awesome T-shirts for Mother's Day, they said "Great Grandma To Be."  Karl and Tiffany gave me a new camera for Mother's Day, it is awesome, I didn't realize how much the technology in camera's have improved.  This camera does all kinds of things. I can't wait for my granddaughter to get here so I can take lots and lots of pictures of her.

After we got done eating a couple 100 pounds of crab legs. We all took off to spend our hard earned money in the casino. Dad and I played a penny machine that seemed to keep us playing for a really long time. After we tripled our money we pulled it and moved on. Dad sat down at a quarter machine and I think on his first spin he won. He pulled his money and then put another $20 in it and won again. At that point I went to check on Mom. She was holding her own on this fishy slot machine she was playing. All the kids were hanging out at different times with Grandma making sure she was winning.  Everyone else was moving around and loosing there money quick. At one point I caught up to Tiffany and she was sitting at a machine not playing, I tried to get her to play this penguin slot machine but she wasn't feeling to good. I can't blame her, when I looked down at her feet, they were so swollen. She had no ankles. Shortly after that they decided it was time to go home.

At one point Dad, Nancy, Paul and Me were playing the Wizard of Oz penny slot machines.  We were having a lot of fun getting the bonuses. Finally Mom and Karl showed up and joined us, it was funny because our family had the whole section of machines. Not to brag but I was the only one that won on those machines. 

Time to go home, and we always play the dollar machine on our way out the door. Everyone puts in a $20.00 and we each take turns spinning. We actually won this time. We each doubled our money. NICE!!!!

When we got home Karl started looking for his phone, couldn't find it any where. Unfortunately he must of lost it at the casino. So off to the phone store we will go.

It sure was a fun night out, we all needed the distraction.
