No matter how old my kids get, they always look forward to riding the train!
It is a tradition that they will always remember.

Bubble Gum Valentines!



Valentine's Day parties are upon us this week,
and as usual, I am getting mine done just in the nick of time!
My kids are totally into bubble gum right now,
so these bubble gum valentines are perfect for them!


They are super simple to make too if you've got a camera and photoshop!
First I took a side view of my daughter blowing.


Then I cropped it so her head was in the left half of the photo 
and there was space on the right.


I added a big pink circle for the bubble and put the message inside.


I am in LOVE with how they turned out!!
I think they're super cute, and I can't wait for her to give them to her friends!
They were fairly inexpensive too, with prints at Costco,
and mega packs of bubble gum I found on Amazon!
I attached the gum with double sided tape and they are ready to go!


My son is older, so we made his different without a photo.
Who knows what middle schoolers think is cool, but hopefully they'll like it!


You can download the file HERE and make your own bubble gum valentines!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Knott's for the Cure 2016!


It's that time of year again!
Knott's Berry Farm is teaming up with Susan G. Komen Orange County
to raise money for breast cancer awareness, services and research!
"Pink Tickets" are on sale now and limited edition T-shirts!

75% of the funds raised for Susan G. Komen are used
to provide local services throughout Orange County:

- Breast cancer detection and treatment education
-Information and support for breast cancer survivors and families
-Funding for free mammograms for uninsured and underserved women

25% of the funds raised for Susan G. Komen
support national research to discover the cure for breast cancer.


Two years ago I attended the kickoff to the very first Knott's for the Cure!
Little did I know that I would be diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer just a few weeks later.


 Last year I attended the second annual Knott's for the Cure
as a survivor and key speaker about my battle with breast cancer.


I truly came full circle from being there as a supporter, through cancer,
and back to stand and support with my fellow breast cancer survivors!

 Susan G. Komen was founded by one sister supporting another 
through her fight with breast cancer, 
and I was honored, humbled and blessed to be able to stand
 with my fellow breast cancer sisters 
to celebrate our victories and raise money to prevent 
and fight breast cancer for all the women in Orange County!


Come enjoy the park and support this important cause 
by purchasing your "Pink Tickets" now through April 1, 2016!
This special price of $40 is almost half off regular admission 
and a portion of the proceeds go to such a great cause.


All of us have been or will be affected by a loved one's battle with cancer.
I am so thankful for the chance I had to fight 
and the opportunity I have to be here with my family.

Get your "Pink Tickets" and fight with us today!
Follow Knott's Berry Farm on social media and share who you're fighting for with the hashtag #KnottsPink!
