The Vegas Mom | Samantha
I know I’ve been gone a while. Mentally I couldn I know I’ve been gone a while. Mentally I couldn’t bring myself to post a pretty picture and pretend I wasn’t a mess. This year hit me me with bad things after bad thing. It was hard to wrap my head around them, and I couldn’t seem to bring myself back to normal. I don’t want to let myself stay stuck in those feelings. I do have a lot of good in my life as well, and I want to go back to sharing with you all.

Quick, easy, and delicious appetizer for NYE? Chec Quick, easy, and delicious appetizer for NYE? Check!

After the year we’ve had I wanted appetizers that were not only easy, but extremely delicious. I was able to make fish & chips for my family of six in 10 minutes in my air fryer. I used @gortonsseafood beer battered fish fillets and it’s a huge hit.

I love Gorton’s because they use 100% wild caught fish. In addition, they’re fish is a great source of protein.

happy birthday in heaven They say time heals all happy birthday in heaven

They say time heals all wounds, but I know this is one thing that I will never truly heal from. This is my stepdad’s, who I consider my actual dad, 13th birthday in heaven. It never gets an easier. There are so many things that he missed. He never saw me graduate high school. He never met my husband. He never saw me get married or got to walk me down the aisle. He never met his grandchildren. There are so many thing I wish I could say to him, but I never will be able to. It hurts my soul knowing he was made to be a grandfather, but never got to meet DJ & Brooklyn.

Happy 73rd birthday Dennis. I love & miss you.

merry christmas eve I hope everyone has a great merry  christmas eve

I hope everyone has a great Christmas Eve today if you celebrate. I didn’t celebrate on Christmas Eve until I met my husband. Now instead of one day we get to celebrate for two.

What are you doing for Christmas Eve?

Thank you @cinemapoplv for making our first movie Thank you @cinemapoplv for making our first movie theater experience magical.

Personally, my family is a long way off from being able to take our kids to the movies. Add on top of that the fact we are in the middle of a pandemic. That’s why this was the perfect experience. They provided a huge 14 ft screen with any movie of our choice. In addition, they provided all the snacks and drinks. Their package is for up to 10 people.

DJ has already asked me multiple times in the last few days since we did it when we can do it again. That should show you how amazing it was!

I can’t wait for the weather to get nicer to do it again, but this time outside!

    5 COVID Safe Things to do this Halloween Season in Las Vegas

    October 19, 2020 /

    We are in the midst of Halloween season; however, this year is much different from normal. Usually, I’m getting ready to go to trunk or treats during the month, and trick or treating on Halloween night. Halloween is even on a Saturday this year. I figured it would be a long day of on and off trick or treating. Unfortunately, COVID is still a problem. In addition, we have a few high risk people in our family to worry about. I wanted to find some things we could do that are still safe to participate in.  We will be skipping trick or treating all together. I won’t even be handing…

    6 Cute Halloween Movies to Watch with Your Kids This Fall

    September 28, 2020 /

    Halloween is right around the corner! Once it is October I will be playing Halloween movies and shorts non-stop for DJ and Brooklyn. There are plenty of Halloween movies that are way too scary for kids. In addition, the Halloween movies for kids are scattered through all different platforms. I wanted to compile a list of six cute Halloween movies for you to watch with the kids in your life. I’ve linked them to exactly where you can watch them. You’ll find these movies on Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime. I have watched all of these movies over the years, and they are all so adorable. 6 Cute Halloween Movies…

    Halloween is right around the corner, but with COVID this year is going to be different. I know there are people who are comfortable taking their kids trick-or-treating; however, my husband and I are not. Instead we are going to be throwing the kids a Halloween party. Halloween is on a Saturday, which means I have an entire day to fill with fun stuff. I figured there are other people like me and my husband. That is why I compiled a list of things to help keep you in the Halloween spirit this year. There is a good mix of snacks, decor, crafts, and even party ideas. Things to Help…

    White Chocolate Peppermint Bark

    Welcome to Blogmas day six! I’m today with another recipe post. Actually, I’m back with another chocolate and mint recipe post. Today I’m sharing with you my white chocolate peppermint bark recipe. I know I say everything I make it simple or easy; however, this time I mean it. It only takes two ingredients to make this. It’s so delicious that you won’t be able to put it down. I said last time I only like a little bit of mint with chocolate, but this is the exception. Somehow the mix of the white chocolate and candy cane together just works so well. Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links. I may…

    3 Cute Christmas Books for Little Kids

    Welcome to day five of Blogmas! I’m sure it is not surprise I love books. That’s why I do a book of the week almost every week. I tend to stick to children’s books, and I don’t share every single book we read together. During Blogmas I’m sharing holiday themed books; however, I’m only getting to share four holiday books this month. I wanted to share three more Christmas books for little kids that I think are adorable.  As usual these books are on Kindle Unlimited. We pay for it monthly, and get good use out of it.

    Welcome to day four of Blogmas! Today I wanted to do something a little different. I am sharing with you 4 small businesses to shop this holiday season. Honestly, I think it’s really important to shop small; especially during the Holidays. You’re helping a person and their family, not just a big cooperation. In all honesty, I shop both during the holidays; however, if it was realistic I would solely shop small. Unfortunately, I can’t get a Nintendo Switch from a small business, but I can get a lot of other awesome gifts. 4 Small Businesses to Shop this Holiday Season MOON·LOVE·BATH This company is run by a Mom, which…

This week’s book is The Magic of Friendship Snow by Andi Cann. It was so cute, and I loved reading it to DJ and Brooklyn. It is a bit long at 62 pages; however, half of those are pictures.
