It’s been several years since we last went to the Fantastic Indoor Swapmeet here in town. It was dark and crowded and noisy and I have no reason to think that’s changed over the years! We found what we were looking for (summer hats for the kids), but as with anywhere, buyer beware (knock-offs galore) […]

We took the kids to see Mystère at Treasure Island last night. My husband and I went six years ago by ourselves because the kids were too young, but we decided they were old enough to appreciate it now (they’re 7 and 9), and we were right!

One of our family traditions each year is to drive around surrounding neighborhoods a couple of days before Christmas and look at the house lights.
There’s one house down the street that goes all out every year: Decorations start going up the day after Thanksgiving and continue all throughout the following weekend. Once they’re up […]

Cirque du Soleil is offering another special on Mystere tickets for Las Vegas locals this year with half off ticket prices!
