Imagikids:
Ledger’s adorable outfit is from @imagikids and was a big hit when we played in Downtown Disney at the @lego store. He also danced a lot and waved to everyone passing by. I adore this little beast.
Fisher Price Bounce & Spin Puppy:
Wonder Space Ball Pit:
Also, my house will never be clean so why not embrace the chaos and add 800 balls to the ball pit. Welcome to crazy town! Who wants to come play?

Cassaro Kids Tower Slide:
What can be better than sliding into a new week with a smile and some fun. Ledger is loving his Climbing Play Tower with Slide and Chalkboard from @cassarokids. They have a fun variety of natural play furniture for little ones.

Dodgers Holiday Festival
December 10, 2020Christmas magic is real! And watching my little guys' react to the snow and fun special effects at the Dodgers Holiday Festival was the best. If you are a Dodger's fan, then this is the holiday event for you.
'Tis the season for celebration at Dodger Stadium. The 2020 World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers have a festive holiday drive-thru event with lots of lights, fake snow, interactive displays and of course lots of Dodgers moments. Here are a few highlights from our experience.
Santa was at the end and asked our family name. Then he sent us off with a special holiday song. Check out our YouTube video on our page OCBoysLife to see more fun highlights from the Dodgers Holiday Festival.
Heads up, when we drove up to Dodgers Stadium, they did stop every car and have you open your trunk so they can look inside.
There is the option to donate new or gently used baseball or softball equipment that will benefit Dodgers RBI, new toys that will benefit RaiseAChild, and new pairs of socks that will benefit LA Family Housing.
Important to note that public restrooms are not available. Make sure you bring snacks and entertainment for the kids because we waited for an hour and a half to get into the holiday drive-thru. Keep that in mind when selecting your ticket time as well. Our time was 7:30 and we arrived 10 minutes before, but we didn't get in until 8:50pm. This was on a Saturday night, so weeknights might be less popular and not have as long of a wait.
The Dodgers Holiday Festival is open nightly from 5-10pm through December 24th. To purchase a ticket, go to https://www.mlb.com/dodgers/fans/holiday-festival . Tickets are $55 per vehicle.
