What’s Hot In Southern California: Camp Spooky at Knott’s Berry Farm
Image courtesy of Knott’s Berry Farm. Southern California has no shortage of entertainment venues. But when we decide to treat our kids to an amusement park, we head to Knott’s Berry Farm. As America’s First Theme Park, Knott’s is rich in both fun and history. You can wander through Ghost Town, take a trip back in time at the Western Trails Museum, climb on board a stagecoach, or hitch a ride on the Calico Railroad for a ride around the park (with an appearance by the friendliest train robbers you’ll ever meet).

Parenting :: Tips for Celebrating Mini-Milestones
As we get older, milestones are few and far between. Landing our dream job, getting married, having a baby. But kids, on the other hand, are just starting to reach large and mini-milestones! From bringing home their first pet to going to their first high school dance, frame-worthy moments go far beyond the baby book.
