Driven by a stirring melodic score and inspired in part by the adventurous spirit that fuels the culture of street sports, VOLTA is a story of transformation. It is about being true to oneself, fulfilling one’s true potential, and recognizing one’s own power to make it possible. Ultimate freedom comes with self-acceptance, and with the liberation of the judgement of others. The Music of VOLTA VOLTA is propelled by a series of atmospheric, epic and poetic musical landscapes.

Read MoreInside the Walt Disney Archives at The Bowers Museum
We visited as a guest of the venue Calling all Disney fans The Walt Disney Archives has arrived at The Bowers Museum. Established in 1970, the archive has collected, preserved, cataloged, and made available for study merchandise, awards, pictures, art, and so much more. This 10,000 square foot exhibit made its debut in 2018 for Japan’s D23 expo, and due to its popularity, the team in Japan asked if they could tour the exhibition. After a nine-city tour that took 19 months, The Walt Disney Archives bought the exhibit back home. Seeing the success and outpouring of love for the archives in Japan, the company decided that they needed to share the spirit of Disney starting right here in Walt’s backyard. Located only 6 miles from Disneyland, The Walt Disney Archives felt that The Bowers Museum would be the perfect location as the first stop on a much-anticipated exhibition tour. Opening on March 7ththe exhibition, Inside the Walt Disney Archives: 50 Years of Preserving the Magic, will give the public behind the scenes access that has never been granted before. Guests will be able to immerse themselves in over 400 objects such as the ghouls from the Haunted Mansion, costumes, props from movies and tv shows, original artwork as well as personal items that belong to Walt. A few of the items that caught my eye and made me feel like a kid again were Herbie the Love Bug! The original Alphabet Block set from Mary Poppins as well as her magical bag, the Sleeping Beauty book from 1959, Zorro’s sword, and a magical bed knob from the Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Along with the exhibit will be special speakers as well as lecture series, which is a must for every Disney fan.

Read MoreWorld Premiere of Disney Pixar Onward
We attended as a guest of Disney and Pixar. One of my favorite things to do with my children is to attend a world premiere of a Disney and Pixar Animation film. I was beyond thrilled upon receipt of the invitation to attend the world premiere of Disney and Pixar’s newest feature animated film, Onward. It felt like a dream come true, receiving the invitation, and I could not wait to tell my boys that they would be attending with me. The first thing that my boys did was to watch the trailer for the film. From that moment on, they could not wait to attend. The day of the premiere, my younger son got all dressed up before school so that he would be all ready for the premiere. You can imagine his sadness when he called me an hour into school to tell me that he fell into a puddle of mud, and needed me to bring him a change of clothes. Thankfully, he had a large variety of clothes in his closet, and I was able to bring him something cute to change into at school that he could also wear to the premiere. I was counting down the clock until it was time for us to leave for Los Angeles, and finally, the time had come. When I picked up my son from school, he could not wait for us to arrive at the premiere. We were lucky, and there was barely any traffic, allowing us to get to Los Angeles in record-breaking time. All of the top celebrities in Hollywood put on their best dresses and arrived at The El Capitan Theatre for the premiere. Fans had lined the streets of Hollywood Boulevard in hopes of capturing a glimpse of one of their favorite celebrities. The minute that we stepped onto the “blue” carpet, we were swept into a magical world. We snacked on chicken nuggets, played games, got our hair painted, and took a million pictures. We enjoyed some karaoke for entertainment while we awaited the time for the film to start. Finally, the time had come for all of us to be ushered into the theatre to see the film. My son and I got our popcorn and water and then waited for the film to begin. From the minute the film started, we were in love with the story. It was a beautiful story about brothers, fathers, and their relationships. It...

Glamping in a Tipi under the Stars in Joshua Tree
Glamping in Joshua Tree with AirBnb was one of my favorite mother/daughter trips. My daughter and I love visiting unique and fun places. Recently, a listing on Airbnb in Joshua Tree caught our attention. It is a place that we wanted to visit, and we added it to our travel bucket list over a year ago. During the holiday break, I surprised my daughter with an overnight to Joshua Tree to go glamping in a tipi! Hiking to Heart Rock at Joshua Tree Joshua Tree is just a short drive outside of Palm Springs, so we packed up our car and got ready for an unforgettable mother/daughter adventure in the desert. Before checking into our tipi for the night, we went into Joshua Tree National Park to look for “heart rock.” We went on a beautiful hike and were lucky to find the mysterious heart-shaped rock. As the sun started to set, we got back into the car and headed to the tipi to check-in for the night. What to Expect Upon Arrival When we arrived at the campsite, it was everything that we wanted – and more! There were a couple of different tipis and glamping tents (perfect for bigger families) on the property. We had selected to stay in the smaller tipi...
