A Busy 10 Days
We've been quite the social butterflies the last 10 days.
Last Wednesday, we were invited to the Rolls Royce party at the new Red Rock Casino. It was held at the pool and man it is a nice pool! They have cabanas out there with private dining areas. There are huge round sofas with canopies out in the middle of the water. We test drove a Phantomand they have really upgraded from last year. There are TVs in the back of the headrests as opposed to the one tv in the dash (that doesn't work when the car is in motion). The car really has some power to it with a V12 under the hood. Also Neiman Marcus and Harry Winston each had a trunk show, so Natalie had fun looking at and trying on all the jewelry and clothes. Natalie ran into her friends from Item Magazine, who came to the Playboy party. They invited us to the grand opening of the new nightclub on property, Cherry; but I was too tired to do the red carpet thing. I did agree to having our photo taken for the magazine by the pool. We also met some of our neighbors, Joan and Ed Sabel. They love one neighborhood over from us, in Spanish Hills and are related to Matthew McConaughey and have promised Natalie to have us over the next time he is in town.
Friday, Natalie had her Valentino trunk show over at Caesar's Palace. The store manager called and e-mailed her to make sure that she was coming because they wanted Natalie to model some of the clothes for a new Valentino portfolio coming out soon. Somehow I managed to get out of going. I hate shopping. Natalie seemed to have had a really good time, though and even came back with a pair of shoes that she had modeled.
Monday morning we ran into Melissa Hayden (Allen Cunningham's girlfriend) at Starbucks. While talking to her, Lisa Wheeler from Cardplayer Magazine came up and invited us to her house for a cookout Tuesday night. We were happy to get the chance to get to know Lisa better. She has always seemed like such a sweet lady. Natalie made some pasta salad and stuffed portabella mushrooms to take over. Suzie Lederer, BJ Nemeth, and Melissa all showed up at Lisa's. We made some new friends while we were there too, and look forward to having the whole crew together again for another cookout soon.
Thursday we invited our friends Chuck and Marilyn Kruse over to the house. If you have been reading the posts for a while, you will remember that we met them almost a year ago out at Lake Mead. Since we last saw them, they purchased a very nice RV and have been doing a lot of traveling. It was good to have them over and catch up on old times. I got to show them my clip from the Tonight Show, and they got a big kick out of it.
We also went out and got Mother's Day presents taken care of for my mother, Natalie's mother and Natalie's grandmother. We got them all mailed out Friday, and we hope everyone likes their gifts.
Now I am going to try and get some rest. LOL I am not playing the WSOP Circuit event at Caesar's Palace the 8th-11th, but I am playing the WPT at the Mirage the 14th-17th.
