Post Vegas...

Well, as promised, I have returned from good ol' Las Vegas. It was great there! The weather was good--got a little chilly at night though. I visited most of the places I had been hoping to, save for Bellagio fountains and there was just no time for any shows.
Also as promised, I took lots of photos--and I'm working on my newest book to house them--"Viva Las Vegas!"
The Freemont Street Experience is outstanding! If you ever visit the city, make sure to include Downtown (or as the locals call it "The Old Strip").

On to other topics...when I returned and checked my email, I found out that Heritage Makers has, indeed, released a new product! It is called the cookbook, but may be used for any purpose. It has a soft cover, I believe, and is spiral bound. Soon, there will be many templates in the template gallery (as always, designed by other consultants like myself) to help you to create your own cookbook--be sure to check in often!

Contact me to learn more about any and all things Heritage!

Viva Las Vegas!

Two days till Vegas!

For anyone who doesn't know, my husband and I are taking a mini vacation to the Strip this weekend, yay! Nickel slots, here I come (yeah, because I'm too cheap for them there pricey dollar slots, haha).
Of course, I'll be toting my camera everywhere--like the true tourist I am--and you can bet there will be a Heritage product at the end of this neon rainbow.

So, did you know just how many shows there are in Vegas--not to mention the vast variety? Yes, I have lived in Arizona nearly all my life and have never been to the Strip; no, I had no idea about the shows. Everyone knows about the cabaret (even me), Wayne Newton and Celine Dion of course, and even the Cirque Du Soliel. BUT, there is a Soprano's show! Oh, yeah, there is! It sounded like a ton of fun--the website (www.vegas.com) didn't give away too much, but for about $70 you can have a nice dinner with the cast before the show and get preferred seating for the show--and the show itself includes the entire audience. Sounds like a blast! Another one that we're leaning toward is the Price is Right show. It's basically the same as the one on TV, but with a different host and they let you sip cocktails in the audience. Woohoo--wouldn't that be nice to come home in a new car or something!
How exciting!
Next week, I will be sure to include you all in the telling of my own Vegas Vacation.

It's been a while...

Wow, I can't believe I haven't posted since November! Well, a lot has a happened I suppose...birthdays, Christmas, more birthdays, making books, selling on ebay, etc.

Anyways, I'm back!

My last post was about finishing up the Wedding album I created for my Mom--it turned out wonderful! She gave everyone a copy for Christmas--they all (myself included) loved them. I am currently working on several projects: my Mom's coffee table album, her honeymoon album, canvases and posters, a vacation book for myself, and I aquired a new customer for ebay. Woo hoo, I'm busy, busy these days! There is, of course, always room for more--so if you're someone wanting to get started on creating your own Heritage books, let me know! I can get you started quickly, easily, and painless-ly (haha)--and, most importantly, save you lots of MONEY that you otherwise could not save on your own--ask me how!

So, one of my New Year's Resolutions this year is to keep current on my blog! Jeez, at least once a week, right?!

I'll be back--soon.
