When I got the opportunity to head to Vegas this past summer with Westgate Resorts, I jumped at the chance. I loved their Gatlinburg and River Ranch properties so I knew Las Vegas would be an equally amazing experience… and needless to say, I was right! Don’t get me wrong, I love a good night out in Vegas.

Can you believe it took me 37 years to make it out to Colorado? I know, I know, I’m shocked too. Well, let me tell you it was worth the wait because this past summer I finally had the chance to go and I fell in love. I was lucky enough to visit Beaver Creek, which is located 13 miles west…

Since I had to transform into a yellow cartoon, I enlisted my makeup artist extraordinaire, Britney, to create this…
