Last weekend my family headed to Knott’s Spooky Farm to enjoy a spooktacular day at one of our favorite theme parks. Halloween can overwhelming and bit be hard on a little kids. There’s the costumes, loads of candy which are fun, but there’s also the ghastly gory stuff that can be a bit much for little ones. Not fun, especially for sensitive children…
Every year when Halloween rolls around, my son old feels completely left out of the Halloween loop, and he feels limited to the events he can participate in. They are just too spooky for him and or not age appropriate. Oh and the sadness he experiences when mom and his older sisters head to Knott’s Scary Farm…
I am always looking for kid friendly Halloween activities that my son can participate in, that won’t end with him sleeping in my bed or waking us up with a nightmare. I don’t want him to miss out on the spooky fun, and I want all my kiddos to have an awesome Halloween experience!
We hit some pretty awesome spots in the theme park that I want to share with you!
Thank you Knott’s Berry Farm for Inviting my family to #KnottsSpookyFarm. All opinions are my own.

If so, you need to tune into the Disney Channel to see what’s new!
Last week my kiddos and I headed to Disney Studios in Burbank to what’s coming up on our favorite channel. We were thrilled to get a sneak peek of new episodes of Andi Mack, Raven’s Home, and the all NEWCoop & Cami Ask The World.
Here is a photo recap of our day at our favorite studio!
Hosted: Thank you Disney Channel for inviting us to your fall preview event. All opinions are my own.
Life goes from routine to a roller-coaster ride overnight for artistic teenager Andi Mack. It all happens on the eve of her 13th birthday when free-spirited older sister Bex — who has been traveling around the world — returns home to make a revelation, which changes everything for the Mack family. It turns out that Bex isn’t Andi’s sister — she is her mother — and Celia, who Andi thought was her mom, is actually her grandmother. Learning this family secret sends Andi on an uncharted course of self-discovery. She’s not alone on her journey, as best friends Cyrus and Buffy are also trying to figure out their places in the world.
Now a divorced mother of two, Raven Baxter still catches glimpses of the future. She uses her power to help her be a better mother, a successful fashion designer and a good friend. She’s not the only member of her family who can see the future, though. Her son Booker has inherited the ability from her, using it to help him make sense of middle school and his new family life. Their visions sometimes collide, but they always figure things out together. Also living in the Baxter house are Booker’s no-nonsense twin sister Nia and free-spirited Chelsea, Raven’s childhood best friend, who is the divorced mother of Levi, who is savvy and wise beyond his years. Raven and Chelsea work together to help raise their children.
My girls grew up watching That’s So Raven, and they were ecstatic to meet the cast of the show!
Middle school siblings Cooper and Cameron Wrather make nearly all of their decisions, both mundane and madcap, by crowdsourcing opinions from the millions of followers of Cooper’s online channel.
There a so many fun surprises in these shows, no spoilers I promise!
We had a sensational time at Disney Studios, tune in to the Disney Channel and don’t miss out on the fun!
Grammy Award-winning and Tony hit musical BEAUTIFUL – THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL is currently at Segerstrom Center for the Arts, now through October 14th. This inspirational show is a MUST-SEE!
Have you ever been lost in a song?
Carole King’s legendary music is now LIVE on stage at Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa…
After opening night of Beautiful-The Carole King’s Musical at Segerstrom Center I’ve been listening to Carole King’s songs on my playlist. Her music and profound lyrics have a new meaning for me. Her unique love language is like no other and it strikes a deep chord for fans like me.
Carole King has written countless songs for artists including The Drifters, Little Eva, The Righteous Brothers, and for many more. Her incredible song writing took artists to the top charts. Her unique lyrics are still popular today, and I found myself singing along to her songs while watching the show.
Long before she was Carole King, chart-topping music legend, she was Carol Klein, Brooklyn girl with passion and chutzpah. She fought her way into the record business as a teenager and, by the time she reached her twenties, had the husband of her dreams and a flourishing career writing hits for the biggest acts in rock ‘n’ roll. But it wasn’t until her personal life began to crack that she finally managed to find her true voice. Beautiful tells the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to stardom, from being part of a hit songwriting team with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history. Along the way, she made more than beautiful music, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation. Beautiful features a stunning array of beloved songs written by Gerry Goffin/Carole King and Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil, including “I Feel The Earth Move,” “One Fine Day,” “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “You’ve Got A Friend” and the title song.
The scenes transitioned flawlessly, and the performances brought me back in time.
I cried non-stop during “It’s Too Late Baby.” It was both a pivotal point of the show and a highlight in her career.
Beautiful – The Carole King Musical is produced on Broadway by Paul Blake, Sony/ATV Music Publishing, Jeffrey A. Sine, Richard A. Smith, Mike Bosner, Harriet N. Leve/Elaine Krauss, Terry Schnuck, Orin Wolf, Patty Baker/Good Productions, Roger Faxon, Larry Magid, Kit Seidel, Lawrence S. Toppall, Fakston Productions/Mary Solomon, William Court Cohen, John Gore, Matthew C. Blank, Tim Hogue, Joel Hyatt, Marianne Mills, Michael J. Moritz, Jr., StylesFour Productions, Brunish/Trinchero, and Jeremiah J. Harris.
My girl Natalie and I enjoyed the show so much. In fact, we want to see it again!

Earlier this month I screened Warner Bros Picture’s new film Smallfoot, and interviewed actor Channing Tatum, Rapper Common, and Director Karey Kirkpatrick to get the insider scoop on the new film. This adorable new film is a MUST-SEE and hits theaters September 28th!
Warner Bros Sponsored Post: Thank you Warner Bros Pictures for inviting me to screen and interview the cast and director of Smallfoot.
Synopsis
A Yeti named Migo stirs up his community when he discovers something that he didn’t know existed — a human.
In my interview, Actor Channing Tatum talked about his role as Migo…
Question: “With saying that, what would you all say was your favorite thing about the characters that you portrayed? What’s, like, some favorite characteristics?”
Channing Tatum: “Migo is just a believer, you know? He’s a believer and he’s truthful probably first, and that’s why I
think, you know, he was kind of the perfect person to have–kind of have to go on this journey and to be kind of tasked with this–really it’s a–it was a scary thing. I mean, he thought his world was perfect.
And it’s easy to know that change needs to happen if things aren’t good. But, in his mind, things were literally perfect, and he didn’t want anything to change.
And when all of a sudden something comes into his world that completely knocks out a pillar of truth in his life, everything is questionable now. Like, everything is just on thin ice and you don’t know if anything is real.
And I think it takes a really strong person and a really, you know, kind of brave–a brave person to just, you know, sort of go out past the breakers and see what’s out there, and he does that. I think to–I think he respects, like, the stone keeper and his father so much because of the way they raised him and what they represent.
That’s why it was the hardest thing in the world to, like, say–just go against him. And–but it was–they raised him well because he did–he still spoke his truth. I mean, he didn’t lie just to stay out of trouble.”
Rap Star Common talked about the message he felt was the takeaway for moviegoers…
Common:“So, I think the–finding the truth, and speaking that truth, and believing in that truth, and not being afraid to share that truth is, I think, one of the great messages we have in this movie.”
Director Karey Kirkpatrick talked about how the film evolved during the six year project, and the impact that he hoped it would have on the audience…
Karey Kirkpatrick:“And in particular, when doing family entertainment, I do believe that–you know, most of us go to the movies to be entertained, and I–I think we go to be entertained and what we hope that within that entertainment is that we are emotionally engaged and moved at some point.
But, I think kids, whether they know it or not, they go to movies to learn how to live their life. They go to watch other characters navigate difficult situations and resolve conflicts. And they use that, sometimes for good or bad, to figure out how to navigate their own relationships.
And so, I think–I take that really seriously that kids do that. It’s why they go watch the ones that work over and over and over again. Because I don’t think they’re just watching it because it’s pretty.
I think they are watching it because there are some kid fears, and some really deep things that are happening that they live through these characters as they watch them resolve conflict and grapple with issues. And I know that this movie sort of sneaks up on people at some point, and it’s like, oh, wait, this is about maybe some heavy things that are going on in the world.
And it is dealing with truth, and what is truth, and it’s dealing with authority and isolationism, and it’s dealing with–in a weird way–immigrants and the other and borders and all of these things that are in the world. But, it’s also dealing with–if you think about the world that kids live in, you know, kids live in a totalitarian world with parents and schools where, you know, you’re hearing, “because I said so”, or “as long as you live under my roof”.
This new film has a powerful message, and talks about the importance of standing up for the truth and what you believe in. It also talks about current underlying issues like immigration, isolation, and questioning what we are told be be “facts.” Most importantly, being open to others that our different than us.
As a mother, I think this is an incredible message for our children. I truly loved this film, and recommend it for the entire family. I found myself laughing hysterically during many parts of the film.
My favorite part of the film is when Migo, discovers “smallfoot” and wants to prove to his village that they do exist. No more spoilers I promise!
The music in the film is entertaining, and it was a treat to hear Common rap some fun lyrics!
Yeti or not Small foot is hitting theaters September 28th!

Actor Ray Park (Darth Maul) gave us lightsaber training. It was by far one of the coolest things we have ever done! I have to admit it was not as easy as I thought, and I almost whacked Ray Parker in the face… Oops
Ray Parker talked about his 8 hour a day intense training while preparing for his role. His story is truly inspiring!

The W Hotel Punta de Mita, is a hidden gem in Nayarit Mexico. For our 21st wedding anniversary, Carlos and I decided to go on a romantic adventure without our kids to celebrate our special day. This secluded oasis was the perfect spot for us to disconnect, rejuvenate, and escape from our hectic lives.
The easy flight was 3 1/2 hours out of LAX. We were thrilled to get in some alone time and catch up.
Thank you W Hotel Punta De Mita and Riviera Nayarit for hosting us at your gorgeous hotel. All opinions are my own.
Our first order of business was to soak up the sun, order ceviche, and a cool drink. We immediately noticed this beach front property was very private and quiet…
We strolled on the sand, and listened to the crashing ocean waves. The sky was painted a bright salmon, pink, gray, and deep blue… It was both surreal and calming.
Eclectic design as colorful as the lush Mexican coastline, W Punta de Mita’s is a celebration of the region’s rich history. Surf fun waves in crystal clear water then kick back with a cocktail and some ceviche.
This unique hotel offers customized experiences for their guests.
The hotel rooms are quirky and decorated with vibrant colors.
At night the jungle comes ALIVE! We could hear the birds chirping, frogs croaking, the Chachalas (exotic birds) loud screeching, and other unusual noises.
The hotel had many unique design and architectural elements. I walked on this elaborate tile tapestry that began at the hotel reception and led me to the the ocean…
There is color and art everywhere at the W Hotel Punta De Mita. Our private patio was the perfect place to hangout and relax with Frida Khalo.
The staff was very thoughtful and attentive. A delicious assortment of chocolates was delivered to our hotel room for our anniversary.
The AWAY Spa is perfect for detox, retox, and repeat… Oh and there is a full bar in the spa too!
It was so nice to get in a little me time. I sipped on tea, and enjoyed the hidden spa on the property. My 60 minute Escape facial was sooo incredible and relaxing.
Ahhh… Shift into full vacation mode at AWAY Spa, where a tranquil jungle setting, holistic amenities, customized spa therapies, and beauty treatments will leave your body nourished and looking its best for whatever comes next.
