My kids and I love to stare up at the clouds. We see animals, shapes, and images that captivate us and spur on conversations among us.
There goes a bunny rabbit.
Is that a lion about to pounce?
As we were driving home this evening, Noah yelled out that he saw something. Can you see the dragon in the sky?, he asked.
And, boy did we!

We had the extreme privilege of being special guests at the Disney on Ice “Let’s Celebrate!” show. Boy, did we have fun!
It was one colossal party on ice, with all of our favorite Disney friends! We saw Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse as they celebrated a Very Merry Unbirthday Party, with Alice and the Mad Hatter. Noah laughed and laughed as he saw the Mad Hatter’s hat being passed around and around!
The kids, all over the stadium, went wild when it was time for Woody, Jessie and Buzz Lightyear to grace the stage! But, my favorite was the Hawaiian luau with Lilo & Stitch. While I have never seen Lilo and Stitch, there is just something that draws me to this extremely fun celebration.
Seeing all of these fabulous celebrations and festivals from around the globe was entertaining for both the kiddos and us adults, alike. The twins even had a good time… they were our live running commentary on the show!
Be sure you join the party when this spectacular ice show visits your hometown!
In fact, don’t miss it here in Sacramento – the show will be here through Monday. Ticket prices are $14, $17, $23, $40 (VIP), $65 (Front Row). You can find them at www.ticketmaster.com, ARCO Arena Box Office or call 800-745-3000.

The table was covered with Play-Doh. Plastic knives, molds, presses and empty containers were strewn all over the kitchen floor, oozing in to the living room. But, in the midst of the mess, it’s no wonder that Josh and Julia would decide to stage their own Challenge, being the Food Network fans that we are.
They set the timer and began to cover their “cakes,” molding and sculpting their “modeling chocolate” and “fondant.”
When the timer rang, Josh and Julia carefully placed their works of art on the judging table (complete with the intense music being hummed in the background) and the judges – Ethan, Zach & Ben – began to inspect and critic the colorful and elaborately decorated cakes.
They both met the height requirement, were consistent with the theme (although I’m still trying to figure out what the theme actually was! lol) and wowed the judges.
Of course, there can only be one winner, so after the judges deliberated, it was determined that Julia won the $10 million (I know – it’s only $10K, but I didn’t have the heart to correct them)!
Fun times!

When on a nature walk, in practically our own backyard, Ethan brought a smile to our faces when he shouted out that he found a “cupcake” just off the trail. Can you see it in tucked in the grass?
