I have been going to Disney On Ice since I was a little girl and we have been taking Carter since he was two. Every show we have seen has been a magical evening with spectacular performances and memories, but tonight we saw Mickey's Search Party and it was the best one we have ever seen!
Thank you Brainiac™ Kids for sponsoring this post. Brain food kids want to eat!
As a parent you know how important it is to feed your child a healthy diet. I try to look for nutritious foods to help their bodies grow. There is a critical part of every child's development we sometimes forget and overlook, and that is the brain. The brain keeps developing through their teen years and it needs key nutrients to support that development every single day. One snack my kids love that will help with their brain development is Brainiac™ Kids applesauce.
While we were in LA last week we had a little free time and decided to visit Funko Hollywood. It is located at 6201 Hollywood Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90028. The entry is FREE, which is the best part. Funko Hollywood is 40,000 square feet of whimsy, adventure, fun, larger-than-life photo opportunities and immersive sets inspired by your favorite worlds, characters and moments. Carter and Kennedy both collect Funko Pops, which are small figurines from your favorite franchise so they were both excited to visit this amazing store where there are several different rooms with larger than life Funko Pops and so much more. It is has amazing photos ops, shopping, and so much more!
We were invited to the Sonic The HedgeHog Press Tour. It was for work and for fun, of course. We were sent to LA to cover a screening of Sonic The Hedgehog on the Paramount Pictures lot, attend the press junket and interview the cast of the movie and take photos, and attend the premiere on the Paramount Pictures lot. It was beyond amazing. We had the absolute best time. I wanted to share all the highlights with you from our last 3 amazing days. Make sure you go see Sonic The Hedgehog when it arrives in theaters on February 14th.

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and I am having my best girls over for a galentine's party at my house. I can't wait. I plan on serving fun Valentine's Day inspired snacks, delicious cocktails, and we are going to watch Hustlers. It is the perfect girls night movie. Hustlers just recently came out on Blu-Ray/DVD and it is a true story and stars an amazing talented cast of women. It is about sisterhood and female empowerment.
Lions, and tigers and bears, oh my! Today we were invited to the Dolittle movie premiere and after party in LA. All four of us loved the movie. It is a family friendly adventure fantasy movie that kids will love and adults will too. We smiled and laughed and fell in love with all of the animals. It will be in theaters next Friday, January 17th just in time for the 3 day weekend. So take the entire family and get ready to embark on a wonderful adventure!
The movie is about Dr. John Dolittle who lives in solitude, behind the high walls of his lush manor in 19th-century England. His only companionship comes from an array of exotic animals that he speaks to on a daily basis. But when young Queen Victoria becomes gravely ill, the eccentric doctor and his furry friends embark on an epic adventure to a mythical island to find the cure. The movie is full of action, love, friendship, and laughter.
The movie has an incredible voice cast of stars including Tom Holland, Rami Malek, Emma Thompson, Kumail Nanjiani, Octavia Spencer, John Cena, Ralph Fiennes and Selena Gomez providing their voices, and Robert Downey Jr, Harry Collett, Carmel Laniado, Antonio Banderas and Michael Sheen as live-action characters.
Selena Gomez was so kind to talk to Kennedy and take a photo with her.
The after party was so much fun. The food, desserts, and drinks were all amazing! They had so much for Carter and Kennedy to explore. There was a treasure hunt, rock climbing, face painting, crafting animal masks or butterfly wings, decorating sugar cookies, catching butterflies, the Dolittle boat to play in and explore and so much more. My kids had the most amazing time.

I love all of the movie posters for Dolittle. There is one of Robert Downey Jr. with almost every animal. At the after party they were giving out plush dolls of the animals from the movie. Kennedy picked Chee-Chee. It was her favorite.
Carter picked Yoshi. It was Carter's favorite character in the movie and mine too!
Look at those smiles. They had the best time.
Did you know Kennedy's favorite thing on earth is getting her face painted?!
They had this amazing boat that was a replica from the movie that the kids could play on and it was a great photo op! We loved it.
All around the after party were these animal bush sculptures. They had them for all of the animals that were in the movie. They were amazing.
Dolittle is 106 minutes long and comes out next Friday, January 17th. This is the perfect movie to see with the whole family next weekend. Especially since it is a 3 day weekend!
