The Pumpkin Patch

 

Admittedly, a visit to the Pumpkin Patch isn't as excited for older kids.  Most activities are geared towards younger kids.  Scarlett got a kick out of playing around, though ... so that was nice.  And Christian really just wanted to go home - as per usual. HA!

The Air BNB Experience in L.A.

Since moving to California in 2018, we've had few opportunities to travel because Chloe doesn't board well.  We finally decided to go the AirBNB route so we can take Chloe with us.  This is our second time doing an AirBNB with her and she's done GREAT both times! 

We loved this little house in the Atwater Village neighborhood of L.A.! And I think the best part was that there was only one TV and it was small and in a bedroom.  

This is a home the owner stays in when they visit L.A . with their 6 year old daughter, so there were plenty of non-tech kid things to do.  While Christian was pretty bored, Scarlett embraced all the activities that aren't in our own home.  It was so cute!

 

Universal Studios 2020

This weekend we took a trip to L.A. for the first time since moving here.  And so we had our first-ever trip to Universal Studios ... during a terrible heatwave.  Whoooo ... it was hot!  But a fun time was had by one and all! :)

Our New Adventure in Horse Riding Lessons

 We are so excited that at long last, the Lucero Kiddos are taking horse riding lessons!

Scarlett has been ready for this moment FOREVER, but it took Christian a couple of weeks of mental preparation.  I am happy to report that BOTH kids loved the experience and are exited to return next week!

I think one of the coolest things about parenthood is when you can provide your kids with fun experiences you dreamed of having as a child, yourself. :)
