Citrus Ranch Park in Tustin

I have had this park on my list to blog about since we visited last April and I don’t know why it has taken me so long to get the post up! Before I start my post about Citrus Ranch Park in Tustin I wanted to remind you the Urban Kids Consignment Sale runs today through Sunday in Los Alamitos! I went last night to the presale & it was awesome! Tons of baby/kid stuff at super reasonable prices. For $26 I scored a Little People riding toy & Stride Rite tennies {in great shape} for Morgan and a DARLING Hanna Andersson cardigan & the cutest hot pink rain jacket for Emma! Click HERE for hours & info.

Now onto the park!

Cinderella at South Coast Repertory Giveaway

I love that we live so close to a beautiful theatre like South Coast Repertory where we can expose our kids to the art of live theatre in such a lovely location. Isn’t there just something so special about the ritual of dressing up and going to a show? I am taking Emma to this performance of Cinderella next weekend, it will be her first play, and I am so excited to see her face when the curtains are drawn!

I am also VERY excited to be able to GIVEAWAY a family pack of four tickets to see Cinderella at any of the performances on opening weekend, Aug. 7 and 8, 2010! Make sure to read the last paragraph on how you can enter to win tickets AND for a special offer for exclusive pre-sale tickets to A Christmas Carol!

OC Tide Pooling Tips by OC Mom’s Activity Guide!

This guest blog arrived in my email box last night and I am so grateful it did because I did not have a post ready for today!  Emma got hit with a bad respiratory virus early this week, then baby Morgan got it a few days later.  Awful! The only thing worse than one sick kid is two sick kids!  So thank you Katie from OC Mom’s Activity Guide for saving my day and giving me a fabulous guest post!

Wild Rivers Coupon

Now that summer has arrived (woo hoo!) I am sure we are all looking for fun, cool activities to enjoy with the little ones here in OC. It has been years since I have been to Wild Rivers in Irvine, but now that I have seen how much Emma LOVES water features from our recent trip to Rancho Las Palmas, I am definitely planning on taking her here this summer! Wild Rivers recently shared a coupon with me to pass on to my readers for $5 off general admission…
