The World’s Best “Man Cave” Glass – It’s NEAT! Inside the Cave- I’m fortunate to have a couple of friends who really appreciate fine wines and spirits. We have a lot of fun whenever we all get together. A couple of years ago, my friend George showed me an idea he was working on, an extremely unique shaped glass for drinking any spirit “straight up..” He didn’t explain a thing. He simply poured a small glass of scotch in one glass, and the same in his glass. ...
Wow, what a busy month we’re having here at 3P! This weekend alone was jam-packed with planning and pulling off the Las Vegas Operation Christmas Child Packing Party! What an incredible event we had. After planning and saving all year, collecting items, scouring sales, gathering volunteers…we were ready for our packing party. We managed to get 3,368 boxes packed in about 6 hours, Woohoo! It was an emotional experience in a really joyful way to see everyone come together to...
So, with our table finished… …We headed out to our Operation Christmas Child Countdown event, worked a half-day, and came home to get all of the side dishes prepped for our Thanksgiving. The 3P team had a great time in the kitchen together, got everything done in less than 2 hours, and relaxed the rest of the night. When we got up the next morning, Brenda and Chris went to church after popping the seasoned turkey in the oven and starting the gravy. John...
It’s hard to believe that Thanksgiving is just around the corner! In our family this year, we are fortunate enough to celebrate TWO Thanksgivings, thanks to half of us being Canadians. Canadian Thanksgiving is in October, and it was perfect timing for us to have some fun with it. For the holidays, our family splits the big dinner responsibilities…meaning, Chris’ brother Matt and his wife Shari handle Thanksgiving and we do Christmas dinner at our house. We wanted to...
Some people use today as a day to celebrate while honoring loved ones. Some people have BBQ’s or the family over for dinner. Some people share a moment of silence. Some might give a gift to a special Vet in their life. Since we save all of the décor we use throughout the year…some of our décor from our 4th of July parties, can double as décor for a honorary dinner, or a patriotic way to wrap a gift! It really does help to keep that “Event Basic” in mind, because you’ll...
Hi girlfriends! Can I just tell you that a few weeks ago, I had the BEST weekend ever with some of my long-time girlfriends? We had such a blast, and we managed to do it without any heavy planning, crazy spending, or being stressed out about anything. My girls Nancy, Marie, Elizabeth, Patricia, Melinda, and Ardice all came to Vegas for our traditional get together…which we call: our Hag Bag Weekend. They flew in from all over Canada, Mexico, etc. to make it, and I was so...
For the past few years, we’ve been an active part of local “Trunk or Treat” events for our local community here in Henderson. We participate with Life Springs Christian Church, and it’s always a great time for local kids and their families. So, what is “Trunk or Treat”? Trunk or Treat is a community event that provides a safe, well lit, supervised and fun place for young children to trick or treat! Everyone gathers together, sometimes at an elementary school, community...
In the Cave: Ok, so what exactly is a “Man Cave”? Simply put, it’s a place for a guy to be alone, indulge in hobbies, and/or hang out with guy friends without fear of upsetting the special people in our lives. Hey guys, some psychiatrists say it’s important for a man to have a place to retreat, and provide refuge from stressful surroundings, and man caves are said to be beneficial to relationships! How can we lose with that kind of endorsement? I’m...
Wow…big day today! Can you believe it’s already NOVEMBER!? Thanksgiving and all the holidays will be here before we know it. You know what else came up before we knew it…OUR BIG LAUNCH DAY! Woo-hoo! It’s so great to have you all here with us on this journey, and to kick things off we wanted to offer some highlights of the last few weeks, as well as what’s to come in the next few weeks! Hope you had a safe and happy Halloween, and we also hope you’ll share some...
As everyone is knee-deep in the festivities today, I also think that today is another very important day. October 31st is the last day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So, today is a reminder for me to book my yearly mammogram screening. My life long friend & I always remind each other, and today she is a Breast Cancer Survivor. I am honoring her today: So, wouldn’t it be great if: We make our own appointment if needed Remind a special girlfriend, too! Here’s...
