Happy Holidays... Late



Welp again it's been a while. Teaching first grade doesn't allow me time for extra things like this, but we've been busy. Luckily I get 3 weeks on for Christmas Vacation. I'm going on week two.

I spent my first week of vacation traveling to Levi's Stadium for a 49er game and going to Disneyland. It was so nice to just get away. I wanted to share some photos of the festivities. Get Ready for a photo post.

I got one of the covited candy canes. Disneyland only make and sell these on certain days during the holidays. Usually you need to get to the parks early to get a wristband to buy one, however on Christmas Eve, I was able to walk in, and randomly get one. They are handmade the day they are sold. YAY!

Birthday Weekend

IOur original plan was to celebrate in Disneyland. However a trip that usually takes a handful of hours ended up taking that same amount a time to not move very far. There were some big mudslides on a very busy highway and it moved A LOT of traffic over to the highway we usually use. After driving for 4 hours to a city it usually take 45 min. To get to we decided to turn around. 

I decided to make some lemonade with the lemons I had been given and we ended up having a nice weekend out festivals, farms, restaurants and nice weather! 
Pumpkins as far as the eye can see. 

Nothing better than a steamed Attichoke grown on premises! 
How cute is this old fashioned ice cream truck!? We were at a Clam Festival on the beach.
