Candy Cane Lane

It was a miracle that all 3 of us were actually going out on a family adventure. Lately the Boy just would rather stay home and play video games. So taking both of the kids to Candy Cane Lane was pretty cool.
We stopped at Starbucks first for hot cocoa.. of course! Then got to Candy Cane Lane, parked and walked a block or two. This neighborhood always out does itself. And everyone is loaded with Christmas spirit. I loved it!

Christmas Shopping at Olvera Street

If you know me... then you will know that i absolutely love all that is Olvera Street! I dragged the Spawn here to grab a couple of gifts.. Olvera Street during Christmas is outstanding.

We went in & out of all the little stores, had lunch and then saw the dancers. There was also this Nativity Scene... it was much more brillant than the picture. I explained to Spawn what it was all about, she just calls all of them Jesus. lol. I'm glad i got to teach her something good that day.


And as we were leaving... there was this huge shrine to the Virgin Mary! It was amazing! I had never seen anything like that before... so i walked over to it with the Spawn.. people were bring flowers, lighting candles & kneeling to pray. I explained to Spawn what all was going on... she had questions galore. Even though i do not pray to the Virgin Mary nor am i Catholic... these things are always good to know.



I love this time of year!

Dani singing in the Christmas show!

Dani was singing "Must Be Santa" with her kindergarten class.

I asked her to sing me the song she sang... this is what she said:

"Must be santa, santa claus... (2 claps) Cherry nose, cap on head, suit thats red, must be santa santa claus. Come on a special night... beard thats white, come away on a special night, 6 reindeers."

They also sang "This Little Light of Mine"... it was alot of cuteness~!







Though at the end of the concert Dani started crying.. because she couldn't see her mommy... That broke my heart. She saw Daddy, her face lit up when she did. But since we didnt sit together she didn't see me. That will teach me to "not sit with her daddy" at anymore school functions. Sometimes i get so wrapped up in my feelings/hurt towards her daddy that i forget, we will BOTH be there and we are BOTH her parents. And that we do what we do for Dani, not ourselves.

Marina Del Rey Boat Parade


I took Dani to the boat parade... it was lovely.. all the boats & lights & decorations. It was rather chilly but we had our hot chocolate and were bundled up. It was a good time.

Dear Santa....

Last night Dani & sat down to write her Christmas list to Santa out.
We picked out some Christmas paper at Michaels and came home to start The List.
She tried really hard to think of things she'd like Santa to bring her.
I told her to just think of a few things but I think she has this illusion of having the entire living roomed filled with presents for her. lol
I told Dani that we cant have a big gigantic list because the other boys and girls need presents too and if you write to many toys down he might not be able to bring them all to you.
To which she replied, "He makes ALL of the of toys, mom!" (w/her hands in the air & everything)
So we narrowed it down to 10 items, i still think thats a lot of stuff but since Santa will be coming to *Daddy's house this year, I'm sure *he can pull it off.
