I’ve been fighting a cold for over two weeks now, and due to that we didn’t go to Knott’s Berry Farm, as per our tradition on Christmas Eve, but I couldn’t let this cold stop me from visiting Disneyland Christmas day, which has become our tradition since moving to California! But I did opt for…

How could I resist? Also, we are going to Disneyland in a month! So I’m getting pretty excited! While I don’t think…

Friday was our first day of three that we spent in the Disneyland Park and my special Disneyland Skirt made its debut and boy was it a coming out party it was. I had guests and cast members alike comment on it, and countless people (some asked, others didn’t) took my picture. A few questions…

In just about a week, Patrick and I will be winging our way to sunny southern California to spend some time with my family, as well as a few days at Disneyland. As previously blogged twice before (see the progression here and here) I decided to make a Disneyland themed circle skirt for the trip.…
