Girl Time

What a fun day today with friends, we met at Starbucks for some much needed coffee and girl talk, then made the rounds to all the craft stores, Joannes, Michales and Hobby Lobby then met up for a movie at Sunset Station. The movie was "We Bought A Zoo", it was a cute family film with great music. This song in particular I loved, I have it by Judy Collins but his version was so good I just had to share. Thanks Jerry and Stephanie for a really fun day!

Creative Christmas

The 2011 Bead Metaler Christmas exchange was one creative Christmas! Every year I have a Christmas party for all my regular students who take classes during the year. Faces change every year as we welcome in the new students to join the fun. It starts in the summer when when put all the names in a hat that gives us up to 6 months to make our gifts ....oh by the way that is about our only rule we have the gifts all must be hand made. Lots of friends, lots of food and lots and lots of fun. Thanks to all of you who support and participate with me all through the year. Merry Christmas to each and every one of you.
Special thanks to Jackie and Ronna for taking all these great photos and more ...sorry I couldn't post them all but you get the idea.
Me and Ronna ...Bad Boys Bad Boys!

A Country Christmas

Tonight I was invited to a Christmas dinner/party that was hosted by Clark County Commissioner Tom Collins. The theme for the party was a"Country Christmas" The band was The Tony Marques Band, great band for a fun country party. If you get a chance this week you can catch them down on the strip playing in Harrah's at the Tobey Keith bar.
Good friends, good food and great music....what else is there?

Las Vegas Rodeo Days & Girls Night Out











House Seats definitely came through for us once again when I snagged tickets to see Dwight Yoakam at the Hilton Tuesday night. While my sister was in town we checked the computer every day for something to come up for us to go see and nothing. Of course the same day she leaves Las Vegas Dwight pops up.
The show was great, it was my first time seeing him in concert and I must say ....he is hot and puts on one hell of a show. Great night out with the girls! ....and Charlie! thanks Charlie for driving us and keeping us all in line and off the table tops.

Boulder Blues

Yesterday my sister and her husband arrived for a visit, my brother in law is a huge blues fan & I had promised him that we would go to Boulder Blues. Did you know every Thursday night at Boulder Station in the Railhead is blues night? well it is and were treated to a great show with Guitar Shorty. He has been around along time and was fantastic on the guitar. Great night of blues music and even better people watching ...I'm telling ya Blues fans drink their own kind of cool aid.
