More additions to the House

We have slowly been working on our house trying to get it the way we want it.  We did finally paint the master bedroom and it took out perfect.  We have the same brown that is in the laundry room and spare bedroom and then we did a dark blue accent wall.

Before the paint

One wall painted

My bathroom is done.  Now I just need to get the mirror framed.

Finished product

Every room with a window will have these nice dark brown blinds

Finished room.  I couldn't have asked for a better turn out.

We put a fire place in our basement to help with our heating bill.  So far it is SO NICE!  I'm not a fan of gathering wood but I love the heat!

Zac Brown Band Concert

For Christmas Kyle and I spent it with his family.  We had a nice family dinner at his sisters house and had some way good food.  After dinner we went to the cemetary to light some candles at his dad's grave.  It was a really nice evening.  For Christmas we didn't get eachother anything cuz we have been very spoiled this year.  We got a new house, new barbeque grill, and cell phones.  We have been very blessed.

Now for the fun part of this entry.  In January Kyle and I went to Las Vegas (again) to see Zac Brown Band in concert.  It was so awesome.  Once again we stayed at Hooters Casino cuz it was cheap and our concert was at Mandalay Bay.  So we were able to walk over to the concert.  It was on a Friday night and we had dinner at our favorite place Buffalo Wild Wings Grill and then went to Mandalay Bay Casino.  We took the tram over cuz I refuse to drive in Vegas when we can walk everywhere.  It is so much easier and faster.



Us waiting for the tram. Not the best picture but it was the best out of all the attempts. =)

THE CONCERT!

 

The were 2 opening bands but in my opinion they were horrible.  BUT Zac Brown Band was AWESOME!!!!  They had a cool set up for their band.  I loved how they had different band members sing the songs and the background was cool and it was just amazing.  I LOVED all their songs and it seemed like the concert kept going and going and I didn't want it to stop.  We had good seats too and that always helps.

I loved the background for this song.  I wish I could remember which song it was.  I wanna say Free which I love that song alot.  I would recommend going to these guys in the future.

Of course we made the trip to the famous Pawn store from the show Pawn Stars.  We had tried going friday but the line was too long so we got up early Saturday morning and headed over there.  It was a good thing cuz when we left the line was super long.  One of the workers there said the guys on the show are always there at the store they just sit in the back in the office until someone has something good to sell.  The filming crew is there Monday thru Friday.

BELLAGIO!

I just can't ever make a trip to Vegas and not stop at the Bellagio Casino.  It really is my favorite.  We went to the Conservatory and the next few pictures are from that.  It was obviously the celebration of the Chinese New Year.

Then we made the trip over to the MGM Grand Casino to see the Lion exhibit.  I wanted to see it before they shut it down.  It was free and sometime soon they are shutting it down cuz of cost.  It was always fun to see the Lions out there playing.

Then later Saturday night we saw the show Zumanity.  It is a Cirque Du Solei show.  It was amazing and very different.  I do have to say that Mystere is still my favorite but I'm glad we saw it.

 

We definately had a great time in Vegas.  We went to the Hard Rock Casino and walked around and looked at all the memorbilia in there and ate at the Hard Rock Cafe.  We also went to the Flamingo Casino and saw the fish and flamigos there.  I was able to check off a bunch of things on my list of things to do and see in Vegas.  Our next trip to Vegas if it isn't for NASCAR will be for Nickelback and I can't wait for that!!!!!
