Let’s have a Party with Charlie Brown and Snoopy

January 30, 2020, 2 Comments

Snoopy and the Peanuts Gang are the icons of Knott’s Berry Farm, aside from the boysenberry that is! And normally the Charlie Brown’s beagle pal and the rest of the gang hang out in Camp Snoopy, but during Peanuts Celebration, which kicked off last weekend, they get to take over the entire park. Not only…

Step into Whoville during Grinchmas

The fanciful town of Whoville from How the Grinch Stole Christmas pops up in the middle of Universal Studios each holiday season, and while I’ve missed it the past couple years, I was darn sure to make it this year! While there may be three versions of How the Grinch Stole Christmas now, Grinchmas pays…

Once Upon a Wintertime

Last weekend Patrick and I celebrated our ninth wedding anniversary. We didn’t do anything too fancy, since things have been hectic lately, and opted just to do dinner at Cafe Orleans at Disneyland. They currently offer hot chocolate beignets and they are absolutely delicious. Since we had a winter wedding, I wanted to wear a…

Knott’s Merry Farm is a Western Winter Wonderland

Last week Knott’s Berry Farm received a dusting of snow transforming it into Knott’s Merry Farm. I love Christmas, and honestly, Knott’s is the warmest, coziest place to spend the holidays when it comes to theme parks. Intimate settings, multiple shows, shows plus a craft fair make you feel like you’ve come to a small…

Fall Dapper Day with Friends

Fall Dapper Day came right on the heels of Halloween this year, but for the most part we played it pretty chill, spending most of the day roaming, taking photos and eating food. Like previous unofficial theme days at Disneyland, you’re not only getting pictures of me, but also photos of some of my stylish…

While I always love a good witchy ensemble, the Halloween season really brings it out. Not too long ago I scored a vintage top hat at a thrift store, and having recently re-watched American Horror Story: Coven, I threw together an outfit inspired by Misty Day, whose look is inspired by Stevie Nicks, known for…

While Knott’s Scary Farm kicked off two weeks ago, Knott’s Spooky Farm, the kid-friendly Halloween theme event at Knott’s Berry Farm, started last weekend. Even though the event is geared more toward children, it’s still a lot of fun! Friendly spirits roam Ghost Town, there is “Spooky Storytelling” inside the Bird Cage Theatre, crafts in…

Myself, standing in front of one of the "cabins" which is a concrete tipi, painted white with a red zig-zag horizontally across the middle. I'm wearing a black peasant top with a tipi brooch reflective of the ones at the motel, and a full red skirt with silver and black trim.

A Night at Holbrook’s Kitschy Wigwam Village

Most of our journey to Arizona took us through the northern part of the state, which is the area that Route 66 cuts through, and no trip to Arizona along Route 66 would be complete without staying at the iconic Wigwam Village. Back in 1938, Chester E. Lewis was driving through Cave City, Kentucky when…

Bedrock City’s closure was really what initiated this quick road trip to Arizona, but, as it was so darn close to the Grand Canyon, we figured, why not go? As our road trip was on the short side, we just visited for a brief gaze, short walk along the rim, and a visit to a…

It’s hard to believe summer has come to a close, and with it, the end of my favorite summertime event, Ghost Town Alive, at Knott’s Berry Farm. Every Labor Day for the last four years we’ve spent it at Knott’s Berry Farm enjoying Ghost Town Alive, the unique, award-winning, interactive experience where you get to…
