Thanksgiving 2015

We had a great traditional Thanksgiving with my family. Turkey, mashed potatoes, and all of the usuals were on the table. We enjoyed dinner, socializing, and a quick trip to Target to grab some great deals!

MEANWHILE.......

Lauren got invited to spend the Thanksgiving holiday plus a week (10 days total if i recall correctly) in Cancun, Mexico with her friend Sydney and her parents. They scuba dived, visited the ancient Mayan ruins in Chichen Itza, swam in some under ground cave pools, had the dead skin eaten off their feet by little fish, got called Barbie by the guys in the marketplace, got pulled over by police holding machine guns, got their hair braided, lounged on the beach, and ate lots of great food. Sounds like they had a great time! An experience she will surely never forget!!

Jason and I drove down to California for a quick weekend getaway. We went to see This Charming Band- a cover band of The Smiths. We also stopped at the beach, Black Hole Records, Farrell's Ice Cream Parlour, and more. It's good to just get out of town and have no worries once in awhile!!

We sold our 2004 Land Rover Discovery. 

It was a cool car but time to change it up.

Life is Beautiful 2015

September 25-27, 2015

Music, art, speakers & food meet up in downtown Las Vegas for three days. We were lucky enough to have tickets for Saturday's line up. Let's just start with the fact that it was really hot outside but we endured it until the sun finally bowed out then life at Life Is Beautiful became a little more bearable! We watched some bands and wandered around and checked out all the art installations. The radio station 107.5 that I won my tickets from had the Soundhouse, where we saw New Politics up close and acoustic and I got a picture with them too! We also saw Duran Duran, Imagine Dragons, Big Data and more. The streets of downtown are the venue- 18 blocks to be precise with the entrance located on Fremont and 7th street. Gates open at 2pm and it's constant concerts until 1am. Not for the faint of heart! Jason and I had a great time and are looking forward to going again next year. For me, one day is fine but for Lauren and her friend Sydney it wasn't enough. They had the three day wristband and lived it up! I stole a few of their pictures to put on here as well.
