I told my wife that if our church returned we would need back-up. The picture above gives you a hint. [...]

Just got back from Las Vegas with the family. First time for my wife. She enjoyed checking out all the beautiful hotels and lights on the strip but didn’t enjoy breathing in a couple packs of cigarettes from all of the smoke in the casinos.
