This was back in the day when Disneyland had E Tickets (anyone remember those) so we had to pick our favorite rides for those treasured E Tickets. Disneyland is celebrating it’s 60th Anniversary all year long and guests will experience…

We had a chance to take a tour of the lovely Justine’s home. She and her family moved into this neighborhood about two years ago but says she is still looking to do more things in the house. I think it looks fabulous and love all the little touches that just say home. You can tell a lot of thought went into the design of the home while keeping in mind her two adorable twins and husband. Actually, she said her husband, Mike, had some input into the home décor, like the cool Buddha statue in the living room and superhero books in their new built-in, but most of the design comes…
