Happy Holidays!
Holiday season is flying by and I have so many family holiday ideas to share with you! From easy DIY home ideas, to Disney magic and real reindeer, there’s so many ways to make this holiday a little more magical. I also want to take a some time to share a very special moment with you.
This year, I had a very special opportunity that I will hold close to my heart in memory of my beloved grandmother. As many of you know, my grandmother Dolores recently passed away, but I had the honor of sharing her famous sweet potato pie recipe on Fox 5 San Diego. It’s a cherished tradition that keeps her spirit alive during the holidays. You can watch the Full Segment here !
Holidays at Disney
The holiday magic at Disneyland is truly unmatched! From sparkling lights to the festive treats, the entire park transforms into a winter wonderland with a special visit from a few iconic guests- visiting from the North Pole.
One amazing family holiday ideas includes visiting Santa at Redwood Creek Challenge Trail in Disney California Adventure! It’s a great way to get a beautiful family picture taken, and you have time to do so, since he will be there until December 24, 2024! If you have not been to Disney during holiday season—trust me, it’s a whole vibe you don’t want to miss.
Visiting the park gets me so excited to bring some Disney magic to your holiday table.
Here are some DIY family holiday ideas with tutorials to help spread the Christmas cheer!
A festive breakfast idea! All you need is a Mickey Waffle Maker, berries and whipped cream for the hat !
This was such a fun and affordable way to deck the halls as the bulbs are from Dollar Tree. I’d love to see your recreations!
And speaking of Disney magic, one of the most unforgettable highlights of our holiday season was experiencing the grand opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure– with a very special surprise that even WE were not expecting. Can you guess what –or who– it is?
From a creator welcome event full of amazing merch to previewing the holiday offerings, being a HUGE Tiana fan myself, this has been a DREAM COME TRUE and I want to share those moments with you:
Following the magic of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, we were swept into yet another holiday dream—a magical Christmas party with REAL reindeer. Can you believe it?!
Netflix hosted our family to a Christmas party with magical ‘snow,’ visits with Santa & Mrs. Claus, ornament and cookie decorating, delicious food and drinks, and even an advanced screening of That Christmas! You can see the full recap the festivities here! The whole day was like a scene out of a holiday movie that ended with a gift Netflix had prepared for the kids to open at home- and let me tell you, when Netflix says they’re giving you a gift, they don’t play around! You can see the surprise unboxing video here!
This holiday season has been filled with unforgettable core memories, and we’re so grateful to share them with you.
That wraps up the our recap for now, but I’ll be sharing MANY more DIY ideas all month long on Instagram @InspiredChick ! Wishing you and your loved ones a season full of joy, love, and a little Disney magic!
