Come and see the ladies of L.Bartlett as the celebrate the grand opening of their expansion, Wednesday 6-9 PM, and pick up a bathing suit or cute cover up while you're at it!


Taste of Addison

Naturally, I'm not suggesting you do something that's going to deter your confidence in a bathing suit, but you can always do this after the pool party! Taste of Addison is going on this weekend, and I've gotta say the music line up is superb! Friday hosts Chris Cagle and Luke Bryan, while Saturday hosts the 90's and 2000's Great TRAIN!

One of the cooler things about Taste of Addison this year is Robert Mondavi Wines is hosting a tasting of their premier wines in the convention center. Come out on Friday night at 8 pm and get a tasting of the best Mondavi wines while you sample food prepared by celebrity chef Ted Allen! While sampling all the greatness Addison has to offer, you can also register to win a trip to NAPA VALLEY!

Courtesy of the Robert Mondavi Winery, this prize (valued at $2000) hosts you and a guest from DAL to SFO for a weekend of wine tasting at the, Surprise Surprise, Robert Mondavi Winery! No Purchase Necessary and you've got to be 21 or older, not to metion sober, to register for this prize!


The Byron Nelson

Out at the Four Seasons in Las Colinas, The Byron Nelson Championship is known for so much more than JUST Golf. No no, many people, Golf Enthusiasts or not, come out to the Byron Nelson for, guess what, the Party on the Pavilion! Thursday night will be spent going up and down McKinney as there won't be much more of a chance to do that this weekend, but check out Friday Night for Pat Green! Come and Schmooze with some PGA Elites and Texas Country Fans in your finest, and continue to do moreso Saturday Night, when the Pavilion hosts Le Freak!
