I mentioned before that my kiddos have been addicted to the iPads, and we’ve only been 2 weeks into summer. To get them off the electronics and back into a form of reality, I’ve insisted every other day that the kids pick up a book. For my princess, who just started reading through the school year, she’ chose Sophie’s Animal Parade today, a cute book about an adorable little girl – Sophie who is lonely and creates her own playmates.
We’ve already had a few days this summer where the kids, only being awake for an hour or two, start complaining that they are bored. I love the fact that in Sophie’s Animal Parade, Sophie creates her own form of reality by drawing her own playmates.

To this day, the bakers continue to hand craft each loaf, using a portion of the original mother dough created in the beginning to start each day’s batch of sourdough bread.
Now that we’ve entered the Summer months, we were excited to discover a new indoor playground not too far from home. Billy Beez is a fantastic family fun play space at The Gardenwalk in Anaheim, and we were honored to be invited to share our experience.
With bright colors and a prime location at the Gardenwalk next to the escalators, Billy Beez was really easy to find. We were greeted by a friendly staff that got us checked in with a Billy Beez card and wrist bands, all security measures, we were invited in to play.
