My little superheros

I just had to share my little superheros...Captain America and Wonder Woman (no, they are not shy in front of the camera!)

I know one day they will NOT like this picture, but for now I LOVE it!

I can be rest assured that I will be protected this Halloween! 

Until next time...

Finally a taste of pumpkin

I have been waiting patiently to start baking some pumpkin treats until the weather cools down, and well I finally had my first taste of pumpkin! Last weekend the kids and I made the Trader Joe's Pumpkin bread, so easy and so yummy. ( I love that they have their bright yellow Tilly's t-shirts on :) After drooling over so many recipes on Pinterest I came across a recipe for Pumpkin croissants and I finally made them tonight. Let me tell you, it was pure pumpkin heaven and the best part is that I get to enjoy them for breakfast also. So this is my start to pumpkin everything for the next month until I am so over pumpkin and I will move onto peppermint and hot cocoa for Christmas!

Mini Pumpkin Croissants

2 Pillsbury Crescent rolls
1 cup Pumpkin (NOT pie filling)
1/2 block of cream cheese (4 oz)
4 T sugar
1 T pumpkin pie spice

Beat together the pumpkin, cream cheese, sugar and spice until soft and fluffy
Roll out the crescent rolls and cut them into small small triangles
Spread the mixture on the dough - I used a pretty good amount for each one
Roll up the dough into a croissant (yes it will be messy)

In a separate bowl, combine 4 T sugar and 1 T pumpkin pie spice (or as much to your liking)
Once the croissants are rolled up, roll them in the sugar mixture and place on baking sheet
Bake on 375 degrees for 13-16 minutes

Heaven!

Until next time...

Goathill Junction FREE train rides

If you live in south Orange County and you are looking for something fun and FREE to do with your little ones, you can head on down to Goathill Junction at Fairview Park in Costa Mesa and ride the cutest little trains. My kids LOVED it, especially my little guy! Every 3rd weekend of the month they have FREE train rides from 10-3:30 (I suggest you get there early, as you will have to wait in line) and it's about a 15 min train ride (so it is worth the wait). This month will be October 20-21st. I believe your child has to be able to stand on their own in order to ride. We did this a few months ago and my kiddos enjoyed every second. The trains are tiny and so adorable! Loved this little outing with my family!

Until next time...

Kids FREE in San Diego Month

Join the "kidvasion" in San Diego where your kids can get in FREE to almost all places in San Diego this month including Sea World, SD Zoo, Safari Park and Legoland with each paid adult. There are over 25 museums that they get to go to as well. This is such a great deal! We are heading down to SD to do some fun stuff in a few weeks!

Some of my favorites are a free Amtrak train ride, Sea World (tickets are so expensive, so paying for only 2 adults is worth the savings), San Diego Zoo and Safari Park (even though we normally buy yearly passes here, this is still a great deal), another place I would like to take my kiddos is the USS Midway, they would love it! Also hotels and restaurants are having great deals for kids as well. For a complete list of all the fun you can have in San Diego with your kiddos, go here.

Until next time...
