Harlem Globetrotters Las Vegas - Review

Disclosure - free sample provided.

I have always enjoyed going to see the Harlem Globetrotters.  I remember going as a child.  The Harlem Globetrotters are amazing.  That was about 30 years ago.  Did you know that the Harlem Globetrotters are celebrating being around for over 90 years.  This truly is impressive, but it isn't even a question as to why they have been so popular for so long.  







The Harlem Globetrotters played at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.  We really enjoyed the event.  The Globetrotters combine basketball, with comedy, stunts, and so much more.  It is truly an entertaining event.  They get the crowd involved.  This is a family friendly event.  Children absolutely love it.  My 9 and 11 year old had a great time.  My husband and I enjoyed it too.  We enjoyed the basketball, but the Globetrotters had us hysterical.

Do you have a favorite Globetrotter?  I truly think my favorite is Big Easy, but it is hard to pick a favorite.  They are all talented at what they do, and make the events special for everyone that attends.  I suggest checking out a Harlem Globetrotters game if they come to a city near you.

Hairstyled by Anne Thoumieux

Disclosure - free sample provided.



I am always looking for different ways to style my hair.  I received a copy of Hairstyled by Anne Thoumieux and I was impressed with this book.  It really gives you so many different ways to style your hair.  It has 75 ways to braid, pin and accessorize your hair.  This is a great book to have if you are bored with your hair, and want to do something different.  These are not haircuts, though.  The book is full of different ways to style the hair you currently have.

The book has styles for long hair, and short hair.  The book is really easy to follow.  The instructions are given in easy to follow terms.  The book has a variety of different braids.  The book instructs on braids for all different occasions.  The book offers options for your hair that are casual, but also perfect for fancier outings.  

I was really impressed with the section on buns.  I have never been able to create a great looking bun.  This book explains so much, and makes it easy to create the perfect bun.  The book offers instructions a variety of different types of buns too.

I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
