Eureka Casino Christmas Party for Employees - Mesquite Nevada

Every year at Christmas, the Eureka Casino in Mesquite NV throws a party for their employees and their guests. Employees can bring their whole family and it is a great time - great for the kids who get to see Santa and get a nice gift, as well as enjoy the good food and drink - all provided by the Eureka Casino. Great for mom and dad, too - they get to enjoy themselves and not cook or clean up the mess.

My daughter invited me as her guest and personal photographer and I had a great time, too. I exceeded my personal best for number of trips to the buffet table, too. Pretty proud of that. :)

Eureka Casino is one of Mesquite's major employers - and many employees have worked there for a long time. It is a fun place to work and they provide very good benefits for their workers - health insurance, vacation pay.

And one more little fringe benefit - the Eureka Christmas Party for the families. Really nice to treat your employees like a VIP - and the owner, Greg Lee, was there to welcome everyone to the party.

One of the stars in this video is my newest grandson, Ryder. He had a blast! He may get me on residuals, though, I should probably check his contract before I make these videos.

Happy Holidays!

Ence Homes Mesquite NV - Trailside new construction - early completion

Ence Homes Mesquite NV

New Ence homes in the Trailside subdivision in Mesquite NV - finished early and the buyers have already moved in, with a lot of help from their new neighbors. Quite a few people showed up to help unload the truck and the whole thing only took about 1/2 hour. Is that a record for a quick move in?

Randy, Mary and their son, Matt came from South Dakota looking for an existing home, but we couldn't find just the right house with a swimming pool. Most folks assume that we have lots of pools here, but that just isn't so. Then we looked for homes with a pool-sized lot - we do have some of those here. But we still could not find a house that they really liked.

They did like the Trailside subdivision - near Hughes middle school and several of our pet friendly parks in Mesquite. So I called John Johnson from Ence Homes and he met us at the model home. No - that home was not quite what they wanted. John suggested a floor plan that was used in one of the Ence subdivisions in the St George, Utah area.

After a quick trip to see the existing model, Randy. Mary and Matt were ready to pick their upgrades and design choices. Ence Homes in Mesquite NV has a terrific design center in St George with all of the choices laid out. You can actually see what you are getting when you plan a home. You end up with a custom home.

A week later, we were at the design center - fun, but a long day! Then the folks were off to South Dakota, leaving me here to build their home for them. :)

Ence New Homes Mesquite NV Design Center

Well, actually, I did not do any of the actual building - but checked on the house as it was being built and got updates at least once a week from John, who took pictures of the different stages of construction for the buyers. The home was finished almost a month early and we had to hustle to get the VA loan approved and all the paperwork in. But we did it.

And it is a beauty. Next step is the heated swimming pool.

Mesquite NV Halloween - Trunk or Treat on Monday Oct 31 2011

Mesquite NV Halloween Trunk or Treat - Monday Night Oct 31

Pretty scary!

Halloween in Mesquite NV trunk or treat


Mesquite Police Department will be blocking off Yucca Street next to City Hall on Monday from 5:30 to 7:00 pm for the fourth annual Mesquite Trunk or Treat party.

Local businesses and residents have volunteered donations, as well as their time to pass out Halloween candy to all the "little monsters" who attend.

With so many gated communities and second homes in Mesquite, not all neighborhoods here are ghost and goblin friendly. Many of our snowbirds haven't arrived for the winter yet.

Mesquite's Trunk or Treat is a great way for kids to celebrate my favorite holiday in a fun and safe place.


Although I live in a 55 plus active adult community, I still stock up on Halloween candy - just in case I get a bunch of kids trick or treating at my door. If not, I will be forced to eat the leftovers. Again. Can't wait!
