Instagram post 2193243378408394036_6256834698 What’s on your kids’ holiday lists? 📝🎁 Gman is insistent on an electric skateboard...but he’s never ridden any kind of skateboard! He’s written letters, told Santa, and he’s sure he’s getting it. 🤦🏼‍♀️
.
I don’t know whether to get it or not! What would santa do? 🎅 Can a 7-year old non-skater ride one? (Safely lol). If anyone knows anything about them I’m all ears!
.
Tell me, what is Santa bringing to your house!

This year Gman is 7 and I’m hoping we still get another year (or two??) but I know this might be one of the last 😭💔
.
For the third year in a row we took the Polar Express Train in Fillmore. This year it’s run by a new company- and it’s the official licensed production...if you’ve been lackluster about it in the past I have good news...it was awesome (and worth the hefty increase in fare). No Santa visit after (my only complaint) but the ride itself and the whole experience is way improved and worth the haul out to Fillmore 💯- it’s also in Perris if that is closer for you. And it’s also nationwide! .
#notsponsored just love this family tradition 💗 and the margaritas at @elpescador12 first 😜🍹
.
Have you been on the Polar Express train? 🚂🎄
.
What age did your kids stop believing? I’m dreading it! 🙈
.
Happy Monday🙌🏻

If you haven’t caught the hilarious 𝐵𝑖𝑔 𝐶𝑖𝑡𝑦 𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑛𝑠 show yet, let’s just say that Gman told me there was one thing he didn’t like about our Holiday episode sneak peak...it ended!! 🤣🙌🏻 That’s the ultimate compliment from a 7 year old boy! .
It’s geared towards kids in the 6-14 age range and you can find it on @disneychannel @disneynow and @disneyplus .

Fun Fact: this is a static electricity ball at the @themagichouse in St. Louis and I grew up going to the Magic House and this was my favorite part about going there - when I was a kid we used to have these pics made into a button and I would wear it on my powder blue satin Members Only jacket. Snazzy right? .
I finally took my own kids there recently and it’s still there!! Doesn’t work as well with long hair that’s got too much dry shampoo in it but still fun!

Instagram post 2174396157160243938_6256834698 There’s just something about festive lights at night! Whether it be Christmas lights or Halloween or [fill in the blank]...our kids just love them!
.
I’ve seen photos of the Moonlight Forest Magical Lantern Art Festival for years and we finally went last night! It was much more fun than I expected - we enjoyed a family dinner outside at night, the boys were obsessed with the show on the main stage and of course sipping hot chocolate while walking around looking at all the light displays.
.
Make sure you get the bbq food truck, watch a dragon show, and let the kids climb trees, run around and hit the wall- ours were asleep on the way home, boom! As I like to say, from son up till’ son down 😜 We will definitely be back! .

Please take one minute this fine Wednesday to flex your social media power. It matters. ✅ .
Takes less than one minute to follow these amazing organizations and drop a few likes. Follow a few or follow all, but please help them #dogoodthings .

This beautiful girl came to us in January, she was rescued from the dog meat trade where dogs are regularly starved, tortured then slaughtered or boiled alive - it’s not just during the Yulin Festival. Its all year long. Its not just China, it’s South Korea, its Vietnam, and more. .
It’s not just a certain type or breed of dog. It’s Mamas like Luna, a purebred French Bulldog, overbred then sold for dogmeat. It’s stolen pets. It’s horrifying. .
You can help right this second by just following a few of those who are helping 👆🏻and engaging with their social media. Commenting and bookmarking on this post also helps it get seen more! 💗
.
Obviously money helps most but today you can just follow and like and comment and that helps propel them as they raise awareness and raise money. Prayers welcome too. It takes a Village and it makes a difference. 🙏🏻🙏🏿🙏🏽
