I am sad to see turquoise go but next year's color from Pantone is fabulous: Honeysuckle. Oh, how I love pink!

Why There is No Facebook at the North Pole

An Oakley Christmas

Here is my last event for 2010 located in Oakley, Utah{45 miles east of SLC}.

I only come and go during the early hours of morning and late at night so I never really get to see the actual town. However, it always has a lot of snow when I make my annual trek.

I packed this table as much as I could

A mix of Christmas and other home decor

There must be some Utes fan there!

Threw a little Valentine's Day stuff because its only like 2 months away

Lots of Mirrors

A last minute project

What Happens In Vegas...

Here are some shots from a recent trip to Vegas

There was a race going from Mesquite to Las Vegas

Shaq's hand

You can't see this very well but the black screen was reading an error
"Keyboard Failure"
"No boot device available"
Stupid Dell computer!

I have an obsession with these gaudy mirrors
And yes, I was taking a picture in the Paris bathroom

Just outside of Bally's

Yummy cotton candy from the Spice Market Buffet

Posing in front of Treasure Island

I love Las Vegas. There is so much to see and do!
