What's For Dinner Wednesday - Medieval Times

We're HERE! The weather here in California is just lovely. I remember as a child thinking it was HOT here, but after living awhile in AZ, it is just beautiful!!! Goodbye 100's, hellow 78 degrees and breezy!!! We arrived in Fullerton, CA nice and early in the evening due to M's awesome directing. Seriously, I always get lost when I get on the 215, but this time we managed to reach the 91W! Anyway, we got to our hotel and found out that Medieval Times was really close to us -- so we decided on a whim to go. I had never been before but always wanted to and M went last when he was 10. We had a lot of fun. We were cheering for the red knight. We bought the kids red ribbons to wave and they just loved that. The kids just loved it and sadly our knight did not win the tournament, but hey, maybe next time.

We got back to the hotel at about 9:30-ish and the kids were just so wound up. We ended up getting them to sleep or close to it about a half hour later. They were just laying in bed giggling. It was so cute I started to giggle with them and M just thought we were all too weird. So far no major problems. We discovered that our room is made for the handicap, so the shower head is lower than normal, but M and I aren't tall people and if we tip it up, we can make it work *giggles* -- okay, the truth is I am just too tired and lazy to move rooms!! Looking forward to a long day at Disneyland tomorrow. Check back tomorrow for some pictures of that adventure!



P.S. Enjoy that action shot of my son! Too funny! Apparently he thought it was the pirate adventure and he was digging for some treasure. It still makes me laugh when I look at it!

Is dinner included with the price? the one in Chicagoland is 53.00 a person. what do you get for the admission price? Might want to give to someone as a gift

You get dinner and the show for the price of admission. For dinner you get chicken and a spare rib, a baked potato, soup, garlic bread and dessert pastries. Oh, and soda or beer.

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...
