LEGOLAND Holiday Snow Days is happening now.

Last week was my son's birthday.  Every year, we struggle to find something to do for him.  This year we were blessed, he had a week-long of celebrations.  It started on Monday with a visit to LEGOLAND Holiday Snow days.  We saw over 22,000 LEGO models and more than 57 million bricks at LEGOLAND California Resort.  My son was over the moon running around experiencing snow along with riding roller coasters.  The extra bonus was that he got to play with his favorite toy, "Legos". 
We visited the LEGOLAND Hotel and received a pleasant surprise of various Lego builds, Lego Characters and a Lego play castle.  There is even an elevator with a disco-ball that played dance music.  The kids danced as we explored the hotel.  The hotel is one of a kind with many kid friendly surprises. We don't want to give away all the fun details so you will have to see it for yourself.  Just know that there are talking Lego characters and much more.
Right now during the Holiday Snow Days, you will see lots of Holiday builds like this gorgeous Christmas tree and Mariachi Band made entirely out of Legos. My kids were awe struck with so many great creations. The kid’s imagination was running free as they saw and experienced first-hand that anything is possible with Legos.
There in the middle of great Lego rides and Lego builds, we saw the snow. Yeah!!!  Inner-tubing down the slope was open for all to enjoy some serious snow play.  My kids loved this family activity and rode the inner-tubes several times.  The rush of riding fast down a hill and having the snow splash you as you make it to the bottom were exciting for us all.
Our most favorite thing to see that day was the wall full of Lego Characters inside the hotel. The four of us stood there counting and admiring all the characters.  Yes, we want them all.  We have been collecting these characters for many years.  I think we have only two characters short of a hoarding collection.  Still we don't have as much as is on this wall. So we started to celebrate a birthday and it ended up that all of us had a great time as a family.  
We were invited as part of a media day to experience the Holiday Snow. What ended up happening was that we all had a wonderful family field trip.  I highly recommend taking a day to just be happy and enjoy the family.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

State Testing and a letter of encouragement

State Testing CCSS SBAC is starting next week for our area.  This semester, my son's fourth grade teacher has asked that I write him a letter of encouragement.  She gave us a few weeks notice. I have, in the past few days, written a few handwritten notes of encouragement. Then, I would wake up the next day realizing that it was not loving enough and second guessing myself. This task has been a little hard for me.  Then, the final email reminder came from the teacher. It read as follow: "This is just a friendly reminder to please send a letter of encouragement to your student to be opened this coming Monday, May 1. Students will be given the letters prior to taking their first test."  Oh my goodness, I have to get it done!!! So, I put on my big girl pants and re-wrote the letter for the 5th time. This time, I made it classroom friendly and left out lots of the I love you's and all the mushy stuff I had written before. The letter went something like this:  ...

How to make a California Mission Model.

Learn how to make a California Mission Model at home or in the classroom. We made this project as part of the California Public School Fourth grade requirement in a group setting. Continue to read on to get the supply list and instructions for a successful mission model. On an ordinary day, I was reminded how amazing kids really are when there are no limits. Just as equally amazing are the teachers who guide them and teach them everyday.  I am very thankful for the opportunity that I was given as a parent volunteer.  The day was like a beautiful dance where parents, teachers and students came together for a common goal. The goal was to make models of California Missions from a simple picture and lots of cardboard.  I can honestly say the goal was reached and everyone deserved an "A".

Field Trip to Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament - Buena Park

My family and I were invited to Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament for an afternoon of entertainment. I want to tell you about our journey into the Middle Ages via Medieval Times. It began at the will-call window with the kind clerk suggesting we visit their museum for a small fee. We said yes immediately to exploring their Middle Ages Museum called “The Museum of Torture”. It sounded interesting and educational to see Medieval exhibits. As we headed to the museum, a women dressed in traditional Middle Ages attire adorned all of us with blue crowns. We were assigned Don Alberto Del Mau as our Knight for the tournament. This meant we would have to cheer and support our Knight into battle. Don Alberto Del Mau is a young squire who is renowned as a champion of the defenseless.   Armed with this knowledge, we set out to visit the Museum of Torture.     Inside the museum, we realized that living in the Middle ages was a terrible time for all who crossed Royalty. ...
