Welcome to the blog — my little corner of the internet —
where creativity, adventure, and magic collide! ✨
Here, you’ll find me sprinkling pixie dust, curating unforgettable experiences, and sharing stories that inspire you to dream big—whether it’s through family travel, lifestyle finds, or building a business that sparks joy.
I cover all things Disney, hotel and film reviews, travel adventures across Southern California and beyond, and the wild ride of being a mama to five incredible kids. You’ll also catch glimpses of my journey as a creative entrepreneur, balancing life, love, and big dreams with my best friend and husband of over two decades.
Stick around for a little inspiration, a lot of storytelling, and plenty of ways to bring magic into your everyday life!

Review // Let's Go 'Into the Woods'
Starring Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, James Corden, Anna Kendrick, Chris Pine and Johnny Depp, “Into the Woods” is a humorous and heartfelt musical that follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel—all tied together by an original story involving a Baker and his Wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the Witch who has put a curse on them.
