2012 Beard & Moustache Championship

If you ever get the chance to go to the Beard & Moustache Championship I suggest you do it!! I promise you will not be disappointed. Seriously, I was in crazy beard heaven!!! My hubs, who has a pretty good size beard, has a baby beard compared to these guys. The competition was in Vegas this year, which is only a 6 hour drive, so we had to go! Check out the awesomeness!

The Germans were my fav! They had the most crazy awesome facial hair!

Look, twins!!

 

SANTA!!!! He said I've been good this year. :-)

 Us ladies had to get in on the fun and sport some staches for the competition. Yeah, we're awesome like that! :-) Next year's competition is in Germany and would be so epic to see since they were the best in my opinion. Plus, the hubs and I are planning a European Vacation so maybe it will be in the cards?!?

neon boneyard

Did you know that Vegas has a boneyard of old neon signage?!? It's super cool!! It sucked that we happened to be in Vegas the one weekend it was actually cold so walking around the boneyard was a jittery affair, but don't worry, we're troopers and still managed to take over a hundred pics!!

 This is what our group looked like the whole time. Snap Snap!!

 

You can tell he just loves it when I take his picture!

 

 

 

 

 

(She just couldn't get over the feeling that something was watching her.)

Haha!

So fun!! At night I guess some of them are lit up! Now that would be awesome to see!!

it's the fair!!

So I went to the fair...a month ago. I don't know why it's taken me this long to post about it, because you guys there was a freak show!!! Not with people (I'm still holding out for that someday), but with creepy animals!! Like a 6 legged cow, 2 nosed cow, 5 legged sheep, 2 headed turtle (which was kinda funny to see them trying to swim different directions), and lots of other freaky things encased in formaldehyde jars. The only bummer part is they wouldn't let me take pics inside the freak show tent, sorry. Except this cool guy who did a fire breathing act said I could take his pic :-)

Isn't' he a cutie patootie!?!

Here is some awesome freak show advertisements outside the tent:

I think Scott liked the mermaid cause of her tata's.

Other fair events

Look how fast I'm going on the big yellow slide!! My hair is whipping in the wind!

 Mmmmm fair food!!

 For some reason all the animals felt the need to have their butts pointed at me. Super rude!!

 Speaking fairs, has anyone read The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern? I am DYING to go to that circus!! If anyone knows of any super awesome, legit circus's like that let me know!! I will travel to see that!

THE END

hasta la vista summer

Guys, I just discovered the most amazing thing!

World Beard & Moustache Championships!!

This is real and it happens yearly.

When I was up in Portland I bought the hubs a book on beards.

Inside said book, was pure beard gold and talked all about the competition!

They travel all around the world holding the competition and the best part is that it will be in Vegas this year!!

Totally achievable distance!!

Since the hubs is a sexy bearded man of course we need to go an partake in this awesomeness!!

The competition is in November and I can't wait!!
