Take Me To Magic

For SoCal locals, Midsummer Scream highlighted some wonderful Haunted Houses that you may want to visit & support:

💀 Black Casket Productions in Yucaipa

💀 Twisted Screams Haunt in Buena Park

💀 H & L's Realm of Haunted Houses in Hesperia

💀 Pirates of Burbank

💀 The Haunt with No Name.... Yet in Tarzana

I've been at Midsummer Scream this weekend and there's been a ton of fun Halloween themed updates for Southern California:

🎬 The Academy Museum will have a brand new exhibition on 9.26 called The Horror Show!

It will feature 6 unique galleries and highlighting many of your favorite horror films, such as Alien, Halloween, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Get Out.

Visiting the museum is the perfect addition to your LA Itinerary this fall.

July was a full-hearted, high-magic kind of month ☀️✨

​Between celebrating my birthday, hosting my mom for her birthday visit, and soaking up summer in SoCal, my heart is so full.

Here’s a little peek into the moments that made July so special:

​⚾ Took a behind-the-scenes tour of Angel Stadium (and caught a game!)
👑 Princess Breakfast at Napa Rose with my favorite gals
🍊 Disneyland birthday park days with our amazing OC Cuties community & meeting new friends with Main Street Royalty
🎂 Lots of family time, and core memories made

​As a travel planner, months like this are such a sweet reminder of why I love what I do with Take Me To Magic. Vacations and special days aren't just about hitting every ride—they're about taking a deep breath, putting your phone away, and being fully present with the people you love.

​Whether you’re dreaming up a low-stress Disneyland getaway, a day at Universal Studios Hollywood, or a trip to Walt Disney World, I’d love to handle the logistics and pacing so you can just show up and enjoy your family.

If you’re visiting Anaheim, this is such a hidden gem to add to your itinerary! ⚾✨

We recently took the Angels Behind-the-Scenes Tour, and we had an absolute blast.

​If you love sports history or are trying to check baseball stadiums off your bucket list, this tour gives you such a neat look into Angel Stadium—which is actually the 4th oldest stadium in MLB! We learned so much about the team's history and everything Gene Autry did for the franchise when he originally purchased the team.

​Here is a quick breakdown if you want to check it out:

🌟 ​What You Get to See: Access to the media rooms, the clubhouse, the dugouts, and even getting to walk right out onto the field!

🌟 ​The Extra Perks: At the end of the tour, you receive an Angels bag, a hat, and a coupon for the team store.

🌟 ​Cost & Times: Tickets are just $26 for adults and $22 for kids. The tour last approximately 90-minutes.

🌟 ​Availability: Tours run year-round with sometimes up to 3 tours a day when the Angels are away or in the off-season (with a limited schedule on home gamedays).

​I always suggest extending your Disneyland trip to include extra Southern California experiences like this—it adds so much variety and local fun to your vacation!

​If you’re planning an upcoming trip and want help weaving fun extra experiences like this into your itinerary, send me a DM! I’d love to help you plan. 🎟️

Still smiling thinking about this past weekend! 👑✨

Three of my gals and I finally experienced the Princess Breakfast at Napa Rose for the first time, and it was pure magic from start to finish.

​From the moment we walked in, the Cast Members took such wonderful care of us. But the real highlight was meeting eight different princesses—each one was so engaging, gracious, and truly took the time to chat and get to know us.

​Here is a quick breakdown if you’re considering it for an upcoming trip:

🌟 ​The Character Interactions: Unmatched. Meeting 8 princesses who genuinely take their time with you makes the whole morning feel so special.

🌟 ​The Menu: Truly elevated, delicious food paired with on-point drinks.

🌟 ​The Investment: At $200 per person (inclusive of food, drink, and tip), it’s definitely a splurge and might not fit every vacation budget. But if you have a little one who loves princesses—or you’re a kid at heart like us—it’s an unforgettable core memory.

​I’ll be posting a full video review shortly with a closer look at the food, drinks, and character moments, so stay tuned for that!

Celebrating Disneyland’s birthday with the absolute best community! 🎂✨

​We had the most wonderful time at our latest OC Cuties meetup. We spent the day honoring the park's history by riding some of the original 1955 classics—Jungle Cruise, the Carousel, Snow White, and Mr. Toad—along with favorites like Pirates and Big Thunder.

​But as much as I love the rides, the highlight is always the people. We had so much sweet fellowship, welcomed some incredible new gals to the group, and laughed until our stomachs hurt. It is always so special to just be present, connect, and share the magic together.

​If you’ve been looking for a community of Disney-loving friends, we would love to welcome you! Mark your calendars for our next meetup on Monday, August 24th. The theme is Princess, so get your royal ears ready! 👑

​Save the date, and let me know in the comments if you want the details to join us next month!👇

Something exciting is coming soon to Take Me To Magic... ☕✨

I know that ​planning a Disney vacation can easily feel overwhelming. Between app setups, resort transportation, and early entry rules, it’s easy to end up spending your trip on your phone instead of making memories with your family.

It's a core value of mine for you and your family to be present on vacation, soaking up every magical moment. ​To help you do that on your Disney trip, I’m launching The Walt Disney World Resort Signature Guide very soon!

This guide is ​built exclusively for guests staying on property at one of the Resorts, this digital guide is a complete logistics manual. It helps you understand the nuances of Walt Disney World, while providing practical strategies and park pacing so you can just show up and be present. You can save it to your smartphone, use it on an iPad, or print it right at home.

​It officially drops at the end of the month, along with other incredible guides I've been working hard on, behind the scenes.

​🤍 Are you staying on-property for a trip soon? Drop your travel month or resort below—I'd love to hear where you're staying!
