I am Grateful for a Japanese Sister

We have a ELS (English Learning Student) staying with us until July. She's turned out to be a super fun addition to the family. :) Her name is Rei Mizutani and I introduce her to people as my Japanese sister. I thought it would be fun for her to get a chance to do some touristy things so Ray and I took her down to the strip for a chance to experience some of the free classic Vegas attractions.
We started at the MGM grand to see the lion habitat there.
When we first got there the lions were napping and pretty boring
After about 10 minutes the trainers came around and
got the lions blood pumpin! :)

They had some kind of meat that they were feeding the beasts.

It was pretty hard to get a still shot cause they were moving so much but it was crazy how they just cuddled right up to the trainers!

It was like they were just regular cats and not freakin lions!

Around the back there was a "little" cub only about 18 months old! It was soo cute :)

Next we walked downt the street to M&M World.

It was very yummy.
(Hello double chin)
There was this bucka (Japanese for stupid ha) movie that
we watched, it was in 3D so we wore these dorky glasses
Lastly we ran next door to the Coca Cola Factory.
It was definitely a fun filled day filled with lots of laughter,
memories and miscommunications haha I'm so lucky to have
Rei and Ray in my life. They both bring me a lot of smiles!
Today I am Grateful for a Japanese Sister named Rei!
