... easy breezy kind of day, the type of day you linger over a great cup of coffee, looking through your most recent jewelry magazines or spending the day wandering the antique stores & then lunch in the tea room with friends or just staying home listening to great music ... yeah A La-Dee-Dah-day
Last night I took my friend Ardith and her family that is in town visiting from Florida to see the Blue Man Group at the Venetian. First of all let me say that I forgot that we have 170,000 people in town for the Consumer Electronic show and the strip was packed. I always knew I wanted to see this show but really didn't understand what I would be seeing, the show was very different, very funny and I guess the best way to describe it was "freakishly entertaining". If you can open your mind to the fact you will be seeing something very different you will really enjoy this show.
Fun show, great seats and good friends ... what else would you need on a Wed. night in Vegas?
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!
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!
Ellen, Me, Jerry & Sandy
OMG soooo much great food- thanks everyone for helping!
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?
