 Every once in a while I try to keep my arsenal of events fresh and new. I add a new event here, add an element there... While I love getting hired by companies, couples and families... sometimes there is no better feeling than creating an event from scratch and executing it all by myself.  This year, the annual Festivus party is MUCH bigger and better. We are making it a public event for all to enjoy (with capped attendance of course). Thanks to the Beach House Grill in Fort Collins, we have the ideal space for a lively party filled with "Feats of Strength" and the "Airing of Grievances." We are grateful to have such a fun environment who is also willing to give our guests happy hour pricing ALL NIGHT!  Why New Year's Eve?
Why not!?! After 8 years of struggling to find SOMETHING FUN to do on New Year's Eve in Northern Colorado, I finally decided, why not just host an event myself? Denver always has big bashes to pick from, and you can find the occasional bar with special offers for the evening. But my goal was to put together a fun evening, close to home, make it affordable, and give people OPTIONS! You can play games if you choose, dance on the dance floor, belly up to the bar, go out to the roof top patio and watch what's going on in downtown Fort Collins, participate in the "Airing of Grievances," or just hang out! Guests can even dress in whatever makes them feel festive---no restrictive dress code required! Here's to a Happy New Year 2013, and a VERY Happy Festivus!  If you are anything like me, you enjoy finding unique gifts for loved ones that say, "I put some thought into this purchase." I start my holiday shopping FAR in advance. With constant reminders about good deals, I find myself purchasing thoughtfully as far as 6 months out. Groupon, Living Social, Deal Chicken, Seize the Deal... they all have something of value to offer. You just have to do your research. I have purchased facials, dinner certificates, headphones, hot rollers, car detailing, earrings, photography packages and more! I willingly sign up for the alerts, and first thing in the morning I have a handful of deals to rifle through.  For those who appreciate high fashion at discount prices, you are most likely already aware of the designer sale alerts you can register for. Ideeli, Gilt, HauteLook, and MyHabit, are just a few to name. Thanks to the daily alerts I receive from these sites, my mom and sister have received some fabulous designer clothing and jewelry. The stockings will be filled with more this year! Santa is very good to my family and friends!  Now that we are in full-swing of the holiday season, the craft shows are popping up left and right! For TRULY unique gifts, you can always go for handmade goodies from local artisans and crafters. With so many craft shows going on, I can only list a few, but here you go:
