My Holiday-Themed Travel Recap

I love all the Christmas decorations around Los Angeles, CA and here's my collection of what I've enjoyed seeing. There's something about Christmas decor that just gives me happy, relaxing vibes. 

Universal City Walk

My husband and I spotted a huge Christmas tree at the Universal City Walk before entering Universal Studios Hollywood.

I loved how the Wizarding World of Harry Potter area looked festive with garlands along the buildings. 

By the Simpsons area, red flowers reminding me of poinsettias, lined the Springfield sign.

 

With Christmas comes Gingerbread Houses and I loved being a part of the Gingerbread House competition where we made sure ours looked the best. 

We partnered with the Ronald McDonald House and donated wrapped toys for children.

I was able to take a photo with Lucky, the Hallmark doggy. 

I stumbled across a life-sized Gingerbread House. 

The Gingerbread House was nicely decorated and I loved the details on the roof.

My goal is to check out Disneyland and see how nicely it's decorated. The last time I visited Disneyland was during grad night of High School AGES ago.
