There was no way we expected to spend our beach day surrounded by moon jellyfish! 🪼

Maya couldn’t believe how big this one was and carefully held it with both hands. Meanwhile, Eliza’s official review was, “It’s slimey!” 😂

We made sure to handle them gently, admired them for a moment, and returned them to the water. 💙

One of those unexpected moments that turned into the best family memory.

Have you ever seen this many moon jellyfish at the beach?

Morning update:
I’m being legally outmaneuvered by a 9-year-old.

I said, “Shoes on before we leave.”
She said nothing…

Next thing I know her shoes are buckled into the seat like passengers.

Her logic?
“I can put them on in the car so we’re not late.”

And she was PROUD.
Like she just negotiated a peace treaty.

I can’t even be mad.
This is advanced dad-level problem solving… just not in my favor.

This is one of the best interactions we’ve had with Cruella. My littles were very intrigued by her.

175 POUNDS of chocolate?! 🍫😳

Disney’s Spiral Hill display at the Grand Californian is made with hundreds of pounds of edible ingredients — and the details are incredible. 🎃💀

Which character did you notice first? 👀

☕️ Coffee, coffee, coffee! ☕️

Celebrating #NationalCoffeeDay the only way that feels right… Gilmore Girls style. 🍂☕️

Holding my Luke’s coffee cup, hanging with Luke, strolling through Stars Hollow, and yes… even a BUCKET of cold brew. 😂☕️

Such a fun day at Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood, and I’m already excited that the Gilmore Girls event is coming back this year! 🍁✨ Can’t wait to be back in Stars Hollow.

Because honestly… where you lead, I will follow as long as there’s coffee. ☕️😉

Are you a Gilmore Girls fan? And more importantly… how many cups of coffee are you having today? 😂

The Grand Californian has so many fun Nightmare Before Christmas treats right now but that Mickey skeleton cookie definitely caught my eye! 🍪👀

Which treat would you grab first?

We came for dinner… and somehow ended up trying to solve a murder. 😂🕵️

This was such a fun night at @thespeakeasymurder in Buena Park.

Would you be able to solve it?

POV: You decided Mickey waffles were happening for breakfast. 🏰🧇

Made these at home with my Mickey waffle makers, and honestly… the hardest part was deciding which size Mickey we wanted.

Disney breakfast without leaving the house? I’ll take it. 😂
