Merry christmas!

Sister Wives

Got to work with the Sister Wives and their husband Cody.
All in all things went great.  Brought my sister to help with hair styling,
You know Cody DOES have a hairstyle that he loves.  We abided.
We met at Mery's house early in the morning and spent time getting Mery, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn ready before Cody got there.  We had fun chatting about their kids and Christmas and all that idle chit chat stuff.  But, before the end of the shoot, Christine and I became tight friends.  We even text messaged each other.  Ha!  She is the sweetest one I think!  I really like her and can see us being friends.  Just not sister wives.  :)  I'll repost when the photoshoot pictures are out!  Fun Times!

Latin Grammy's and Nascar Awards

November and December are CRAZY busy in the Vegas Entertainment World.
I always know I'll be graced with Latin Grammy's, Nascar, Country Music Awards, and Rodeo related photo shoots.  This year was no different!  I didn't take many pictures but I did get a few. 

Latin Grammy's were so fun this year.  2 days spent with 3 of my favorite hair/makeup artists and working directly with 7-up team.  So, the dresses were made from soda cans, lashes were to be LARGE, GREEN and FEATHER-LIKE.  Awesome!  The hair looked amazing for the Carlos Santana video.  It all turned out great!  So glad to be a part of such a great event.


 
 

I also LOVE LOVE LOVE working for the Nascar folk every December.
I always get to meet lots of people (who I never know exactly their fame).
I'm getting better on "doing my research".
I get to work with my friend Susan.  She's so sweet and so fun!  2 redheads should ALWAYS work together I think.  It should be a law or something.  :)
Kid Rock was the performer.  He seemed pretty nice but quiet for some reason.  Maybe he was getting in the "mood" for his performance.  I also got to work with Krista Voda.  She hosted the show and did a great job!  And, she's beautiful so it made my job extra easy. 
Then, I was lucky enough to work with Tony Stewart.  THE WINNER of the whole shebang.
And, he won about 6 million I think.....he began to look really really HOT.  Cause he's single too. Just kidding.  (kind of).

It's great food!  Even greater costumes and the best people to share it all with!

Thanks for a great party!!

Emmy was such a cute snow white.

Aurah and Hadlay were the cutest UNLV cheerleaders

Dave, Brooke, Paige, and Dane were ninja turles.

Random Phone Pictures

Jonathan and Arlene got married!  Whoo Hoo!  And, it was THE funnest wedding I have ever been to!  I'll

post more pictures later but the Ben and Jerry's truck.....oh yeah.  That's what I'm talking about!

                                  
Aurah was killing me with her dress up, heels, and sunglasses eating her corn dog.  She's funny.

 Look at these 2 handsome babies!  Grady and Tate are getting so big!  I love these boys!!

My little Brookie isn't so little anymore!  She started High School and gets to wear makeup!  She's absolutely beautiful inside and out!

I dyed my hair totally dark!  I love the change and I'm finally getting used to it!  Thank you Britt!  You always know best!

Look how stinkin cute Emmy is and how grown up!  I swear she acts like she's 30.  She always wants my cell phone to play games.  The second I walk in the house......"jenny, wheres you phone?"

This was the first day of preschool for the girls.  They both go to Miss Kelly.  Aren't they adorable?

Found this picture from our girls trip to California.  We had so much fun!  And ate some seriously good food!  I'm not sure why Jen Sedillo and I are making these faces but I'm pretty sure we were excited to grub.

Dane loves school!  He is in 3rd grade ( i think) and loves basketball.  Well, actually anything sports related!  He's my little buddy! 

My little Paige started Junior High School this year!  She's all grown up!  She always hated wearing jeans because she hated the feel.....but look how cute she is!  She even started playing the flute right after her aunt jenny!

Caribbean Cruise

{ sorry for the picture overload.....this is for journaling sake} In June, I went on a cruise to the Caribbean with 3 of my friends. We had SO. MUCH. FUN. Haiti, Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. Loved every minute. The extra weight gain...not so much!

The first two days were at sea. We had a blast roaming the ship, eating a LOT, playing Name That Tune in the Schooner Bar, swimming, napping, and lots more! Our first stop was Labadee, Haiti. It's a private island that Royal Caribbean owns. We signed up for ziplining. The world's longest zipline ever! It was beautiful! And, disclaimer.....all drinks were non alcoholic. :)

The next stop was Jamaica! Most definately my favorite place! We spent the day at a private resort with a private beach! It was so beautiful! The water was so clear and warm and it was amazing. We had great food, lots of cold drinks, and the softest sand under our feet!

Grand Cayman was our next stop. It was so HOT. But, it was beautiful and the whitest sand I've ever seen. We got lounge chairs on the beach, swam, ate, and shopped. Jen spotted a KFC on our way to Tiki Beach. Even on vacation, she was still thinking business! Susie took a picture of her feet. Her nails totally matched the water. We had fun but we were ready to get back on the boat and chill! I can't wait to go back and swim with the sting rays. I think I can talk my friends into it.

That night on the ship.....it was rainy and overcast. We went out on the top deck to check out the rock climbing wall and wave rider. It was a little creepy to be in the middle of nowhere with a storm coming.

I'm pretty sure that this was the dessert that we all got 2 of! Chocolate Molten Cake. Sinful.

Our last and final stop was in Cozumel, Mexico. Can you see how beautiful this water is? We went shopping at this local market right off the ship. We got some cool things! Susie and Jen were making all sorts of deals on silver jewelry. It was hilarious!

We then sailed for the last 2 days back to Florida. We went to the spa, walked the track, watched an outdoor movie, and started to pack up. We played a country music trivia and our group won!! Well, we tied another group. So, the tie breaker was rock paper scissors. We didn't win that. But, I'm still counting that as a win.

Our waiters were so sweet. They honestly were probably sick of us by the end of the trip. All those diet cokes. Savory bites and extra desserts. Well, that's what they get paid for right?

Thanks so much guys for a great trip! We always have so much fun traveling together! Can't wait to plan the next trip!
