Justin Moore & Free Beer

So my big birthday celebration with Corey was Justin Moore.

I say this because he was miserable the entire time. 

My poor boyfriend who really doesn't like country music was very good about the whole thing even though he had a horrible cold. 

I think one thing that helped was the beer.

There was a pretty adorable Budweiser photo booth with prop beer bottles so I insisted (of course) that we take a photo. When we got to the front they handed us bottles of actual beer. Whaaaat. 

There was also a cute Crown Royal booth and you know how much I'm a sucker for photo booths.

The concert was a great time and I had a blast. Tyler Rich and Justin Moore were awesome. Corey was such a trooper even though he had to blow his nose every five minutes (we left early) and didn't even complain. 

Frankie Ballard & NFR

I know, I know.

I keep waxing poetic about the rodeo.

Last month, I dragged Corey to the SLS for Frankie Ballard because a) Frankie Ballard puts on a great show and b) two for one tickets. Seriously, two for one tickets.

The Foundry was actually insanely empty. It was kind of a bummer but there were so many huge shows in town that weekend (Tim McGraw and George Strait) that people had other priorities.

Even so, the show was a lot of fun. I don't drag Corey to too many country shows because he really doesn't like country music but he actually had a pretty good time.

I have to say, I really enjoyed the rodeo decor at the SLS too.

Happy Chinese New Year!

Good morning and Gung Hay Fat Choi!

My family isn't super traditional but we do keep a few Chinese customs here and there. For instance, we always celebrate Chinese New Year. This year is the Year of the Rooster which is my mom's year (she is turning 60 this year). 

Corey and I went over to Aria last night to check out their decorations. I had seem some pictures on Instagram that looked really pretty so I wanted to check them out for myself! They had a few different large set-ups and a whole bunch of lanterns and coins all over the casino.

There was a really big rooster over by the Asian restaurants.

Red lanterns everywhere.

And this gorgeous dragon display by the lobby. 

The Sanxing.

And these super cute and colorful imperial lions.

Tonight we are eating some traditional Chinese vegetarian dishes (I loaded up on meat yesterday) and candy from the Lazy Susan (which is actually the cute Chinese lucky candy this year instead of whatever random Valentine's Day candy is at WalMart cuz we planned ahead).

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Solo Birthday Part 02

Hey guys!

So onto the second half of my little birthday celebration. Lynn and I literally walked out of the Cam gathering and right into our next adventure. We had both gotten VIP passes for Kelsea Ballerini so we were super excited for the private acoustic set.

No joke, Kelsea is seriously adorable. Just the sweetest person ever. There were less than 50 of us in the showroom for the private set so there wasn't anywhere to stand that didn't have a great view. She sang Peter Pan and her unreleased song High School and answered a ton of questions and just chatted with everyone for a while before taking pictures with everyone. She was wearing the Stuart Weitzman boots I've been coveting so we had a very geeky girly moment complimenting each other's footwear (she liked my blue glitter shoelaces with my Navy shimmer Keds and Cam had also squealed when she saw all the sparkly laces). When we left we had some pretty adorable exclusive goodies and I still hit the merch stand for some fun pieces.

The show started shortly after and I have to say, it was a really great show. I had seen Kelsea play the year before and you could tell she was still getting used to the crowds. This time she really knew how to hold the attention of everyone in the room. 

Overall, such a fun night and a great way to celebrate my birthday!

Monday Must Haves

Ugh, Monday, am I right?

Well, I can't complain too much because Mondays are my Fridays right now so....

Anyway, welcome to a new Monday Must Haves!

I have a bunch of subscription boxes that I've had for years and a few new ones and one that's really standing out right now is Splendies. Most people have sock eating monsters in their closets and I have one that eats all my favorite panties. No joke, I can't count the number of times I've taken advantage of Victoria's Secret's 7 for $27 deals only to not find any of my underwear. It's really sad. And super awkward.

Anyway, I had looked into some similar subscriptions before but they were all either overpriced (like $15-20 for one fancy pair) and frankly, I don't need something pricey that I'm just going to lose. Splendies are really reasonably priced and you get three pairs a month. They also have a wider size selection and allow you to pick the type of underwear you want (so you don't end up with a bunch of panties you're not going to wear). I'm on my third month and I have to say, I really really really love it. Everything is good quality, super cute, and very comfortable. And now I'm not running out constantly. Yay! If you're having the same problem or just love getting cute new things every single month, check out Splendies!

This post was not endorsed in any way at all, I just love sharing my new faves with you guys!
