Happy Birthday Sylvia

Last week was my BFF's birthday; I won't tell how old she is but lets just say that Social Security will be hearing from her from now on. I flew to Tucson for a quick trip to celebrate her birthday with her and we had a wonderful visit that was long over due, we Skype nearly every week but I haven't been to Tucson to see her in 11 years. Happy Birthday Sylvia, I am so lucky to have you in my life and I hope 2011 brings you much love and happiness.

Last night I went to the Wynn Hotel to see the Sinatra Dance With me Show. Living in Las Vegas you would think that I go to all the hotels but that is just not the case. This was my first time in the Wynn Encore and it is just beautiful from the moment you arrive at the valet to drop off your car to the show room ...just beautiful. I took my friend Winston to this show and we had such a great evening. Winston is a dancer and she herself has been on many a stage in Las Vegas. We both loved the show and the music and the dancing. I don't know a thing about the art of dancing I just know I loved it. Winston on the other hand said they were very accomplished and they looked as though they were New York trained.
Thanks Winston for a fun night out and for sharing a wonderful experience with me and most of all for your friendship

Cucpcakes 101

I love making cupcakes and this past Saturday my friend Jerry and I went to Castle of Cakes to take a 3 hour class to learn how to decorate cupcakes. What a blast! we had about 12 total in class and everyone was so fun. The cupcakes were baking when we arrived and the store smelled so delicious we could hardly stand it. We learn lots and lots of fun techniques and everyone brought home a total of 7 cupcakes that we decorated. I can't wait to go back and take another class!!

Concert Night

Last night Greg and I drove out to Primm NV to take in the Air Supply concert. The concert itself was really pretty good, after 36 years together they still sounded great and have a large fan base. They sang all the oldies and everyone sang right along with them. At one point in the show they came out and walked all through the venue, sang, shook hands, took photos with their fans walked up into the stands to meet the people in the nose bleeds seats, Greg and I had really good seats on the floor.
The town was packed, we normally stay at Buffalo Bills but when I called to make a reservation they were sold out so we had to stay at Whiskey Pete's. None of the places in town are great but please....Whiskey Pete's is just a nightmare. It took us longer to stand in line to get checked in than it did to drive to Primm. We tried to eat dinner in the cafe in the hotel, we were seated and that was the last time we had anyone come check on us. After about 15 minutes we finally decided enough was enough and ended up going to McDonalds for dinner. All in all it was a nice mellow night out, it's always fun to get get away with the one you love and just enjoy each other and good music.
