If your kids love Marvel superheroes, than you’ll want to head to Disney California Adventure for Summer of Heroes.
If you live in Los Angeles, you’ve probably been to Disneyland a time or two and are thinking, why would I brave the crowds to visit during the summer? We can think of so many reasons!

Every year, my husband and I have a week where our kids are away and we celebrate Date Week. We try new restaurants, spend uninterrupted time together and sometimes we even go out of town. Date Week this year was very special thanks to Holman Ranch Vineyard & Winery in Carmel Valley. We were guests of the …
There are so many things to do in Los Angeles with kids that it can be difficult to choose what to do on a vacation. The wonderful thing about L.A. is that you can swim at the beach, go on a hike, visit a museum and eat some of the world’s best food all in …
I’m in the market for a new car. And not just any car, but one that I can haul kids and our dog around in while not feeling as if I’m driving a bus. Earlier this month, I borrowed a Lincoln MKX for a road trip to San Diego and then to Berkeley. It just may be …
