A Night in Vegas

This is a photo I've waited a long time to scrap, and it just felt right today because I got the journaling down.

This is for the Style Challenge - to make a cluster with 12 or more elements. I used Pink Reptile Designs "Today" elements. Background is from the free Life is an Adventure Kit.

Journaling:
This picture brings a smile to my face every time I see it. There is a back story to why I smile - and it’s not in the pose or the place, or even the people, but an experience that happened that night. My husband has a model train weathering group, and every year they get together and just have an entire weekend of weathering and fun. This time they came to our house. As the day wound down, Michael asked us if we would take him and Elza down to the strip because she had never been there, and it had been 20 years since he had. As we walked through the casinos and down the street, people kept stopping us and asking for pictures and Michael’s autograph. Finally, we got to Ceasar’s Palace and Melissa seemed really confused. She came up to me and said quietly, “Mom, why is everyone wanting to take pictures of Michael? This is WEIRD!!!!!” It was then that it hit me: She had no idea he was famous! So, I said, “Honey, I’m sorry. I thought we told you that MIchael is an actor”. She was all “NO!!!!! He’s a STAR and you didn’t TELL ME????” She was quite indignant. She looked at Michael and he said to her, “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you, but I’m still the same ole Michael. ”
