Fika at Farm 12

redeemingbeautyfamilyadventures

Fika at Farm 12 is a fun experience. The building and property are beautiful. Trendy and inviting. You will often have a line extending out the front door with those waiting to order their fav coffee and treat.


The prices are comparable to the main chain coffee shops with an exception.. the profits go to help train and educate mothers as part of the Step by Step Program. A great way to enjoy coffee and help someone ❤️
.
One of the elements that makes Fika super inviting is there are lots of comfy spots to chat with a friend,have a meeting or just have some time to yourself. Everywhere you look , you are welcomed with seating inside and outside. They have picnic tables , chairs around a fire pit and several couches and tables throughout .


The drawback is the mugs. We love having a mug in hand to enjoy our espresso with froth art as we meet with others but we have found that we get a mug 1 out of 3 times and the other visits have been disposable. So be prepared you may not get a mug .


Oh and did I mention the pastries? They have some of the best pastries around and all between the 3-5$ range .

Just in time for Spring… A Seed Library

redeemingbeautyfamilyadventures

Have you ever seen a Seed Library? We were so excited to see this when we popped into a library . What a wonderful treat!!
.
We were able to pick several seeds to plant and it helped to minimize our cost in buying seeds.
.
Plus it gave the littles an opportunity to pick things that we would not normally buy like a quinoa plant and a few others.
.
We are so happy to see this back in some of the libraries this spring! Have you seen one at your local library?

Senior Photos at Disneyland: A Galaxy’s Edge PhotoPass Experience

redeemingbeautyfamilyadventures

My son had his own personal photo shoot right in the middle of Galaxy’s Edge which was so cool!!


We were doing his Senior Trip @disneyland and knew we wanted some of his Senior pics taken there. Thanks to the amazing PhotoPass Photographers Team @disneyland that made that dream a reality. The Photographers were so creative and had lots of ideas to bring the pics to life! We loved how they stayed in character as they did the photoshoot.

Here are the details on the photopass⬇️

⭐️ It is part of the Genie ➕.. so for around $30 a day you get all day pics ,lightening lane on select attractions and audio tales from behind the scenes including fun facts of the park . Definitely the best value!

Or

⭐️ Another option … for around $25 a day you can purchase the photo pass .

This is such a fun way to take special pics and either option is so affordable!!

Have you ever thought of taking special photos like this at Disney? Or have you? Let us know in the comments!

Check out the finished results ⬇️

Pixar Place Hotel

redeemingbeautyfamilyadventures
Entrance to the Pixar Place Hotel

Pixar Place Hotel is only a few months old but is absolutely beautiful! . It opened in January 2024 and was originally the Paradise Pier Hotel.
.

The hotel is full of art and sketches of some of your favorite Pixar characters. There are hidden Mickeys in the ceiling lights and hidden Pixar characters added to the floors .. so look up and down as you venture through on your way to the parks . There is also an “Up” inspired elevator .. so cool!

Sitting nook


The Pixar Place Hotel is also one of the more affordable Disneyland Hotels so what’s not to like? Beautiful, fun and affordable! Oh and it has its own secret entrance into California Adventure..yay!!


Let us know if you have stayed here and your thoughts! Did you love the remodel into Pixar theme or miss the Paradise one?

Docking Bay 7 ~ Cold Brew Black Caf

redeemingbeautyfamilyadventures

Cold Brew Black Caf @dockingbay7 is so good!
.
We finally had the opportunity to try this when we were at Disneyland at Christmas and oh it did not disappoint!
.
It is a cold brew coffee topped with sweet cream cheese foam and chocolate puffs.. think cocoa puffs cereal. Yumm!
.
A tip if you order one .. ask for light ice.. it was hard to drink and get the chocolate puffs and cold brew in a single sip, the ice kept blocking it. If there is less ice then it is easier to get the full taste and you want the full taste!
.
We also loved the price.. it was around $6. It was one of our favorite treats!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Frankenstein Math

redeemingbeautyfamilyadventures

We made these adorable Frankensteins for our Fall party this past week 🍁
.
How cute are these???
.
The littles each had their own dice to roll and as they rolled their number it determined what to glue onto their Frankenstein



.
This was the perfect game for the party .It was so fun to see how they all made their Frankensteins their own by putting the hair up to be spiked or the scar on the cheek .. they had fun being creative and they were all unique

.
I found this cute idea from
@housingaforest ❤️She has lots of other fun ideas on her website including this one
