50th A Charlie Brown Christmas Tonite Airs 8 pm on ABC TV with Multiple Generations Watching

Entertainment

#ACharlieBrownChristmas

Multiple generations will be gathering around the good old fashioned TV set (AKA the modern big flat screen) tonight at 8 pm local time here in the U.S. to watch the fiftieth airing of the iconic Emmy award-winning Christmas television special A Charlie Brown Christmas on ABC.

This year there will be a special 30-minute show preceeding the showing of the Peanuts gang holiday classic, hosted by Kristen Bell and featuring celebrities like Kristen Chenoweth, Sarah MacLachlan, Matthew Morrison and others who will be singing and sharing their own memories. A Charlie Brown Christmas, if you didn't already know, is the second longest running holiday special behind Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Charles Schulz and his 4 kids

Having grown up as a Baby Boomer loving everything Charlie Brown, I can still remember the first time this show ever aired in 1965. In fact I'm was around the same age as Jill, Charles' youngest child, you see pictured above.

Here's a clip that will take you down memory lane to get in the mood for tonight's special which kids, parents, grand parents and great grandparents will all be watching together.

During the past year it has been particularly thrilling for me to have had the privilege to work as a brand ambassador for A Charlie Brown Christmas. Not only did I get to interview Jill Schulz about what it was like growing up as the daughter of the great cartoonist Charles Schulz I had the opportunity to chat with Sally Dryer, the voice of the original Violet as well, as talk to composer David Benoit about his musical connections to Mr. Schulz, Linus and Lucy.

Club MomMe Fall Family Fest Perfect Day for Every Member of the Family

Family Event

#FamilyFest #BestDayEver

This is a sponsored post

What a gorgeous day it for the Club MomMe Fall Family Fest held at the spectactular 87-acre South Coast Botanical Garden on the peninsula in Palos Verdes, California. The family-friendly event for moms, moms-to-be and their families was made possible thanks to generous sponsors ranging from major lifestyle companies such as Chicco, Diono, Bamboo Nature, Lansinoh, Whole Food Market, La Croix Water, Tieks, Baby Bjorn, Dolce Gusto to boutique brands that were equally engaging and fun to get to know. Special guests of honor included former Miss California Veena Crownholm, her hubbie and 5 year-old son and others.

When I arrived with my hubbie and 5 year-old daughter, we were thrilled to discover that Fall Fest was methodically laid out on the upper meadow of this lovely botanic garden with 12 different stations and lounges. Before the event opened to the public, there was a special VIP and media brunch for us influencers and our loved ones. Not only were there many baby and family products on display for parents to touch, feel and try. There were truly areas for everyone in the family to enjoy: from the Lansinoh Feeding Nook for nursing moms, to a lounge for women to get pampered with complimentary manicures, mini facials, and blowouts. There was also the Baby Play Lounge, Kids Fun Zone play space for older children, and the DadDe Lounge man cave for the guys and for the first time this year, a new VIP lounge with special treats to enjoy.

There was also a super fun photo booth where we took the mommy and me picture you see here, live musical entertainment and guest speakers talking on all kinds of topics of interest to parents. To add to all the fun for us bloggers there was even a social media scavenger hunt with lots of great prizes to win.

This was Southern California at its best, with the weather playing a great role as the temperature was simply perfect that day. This was a working event for us bloggers. However, we were still encouraged to enjoy ourselves as well as bring along our families, hubbies and significant others, kids, and even grandparents. This turned out to be a really wonderful idea because Club MomMe had thought of everything, down to the last detail to be sure everyone had a good time.

With even the smallest guests in mind, Urbansitter gifted each family with a $50 credit to provide childcare for the kids. This freed up mom and dad to explore all the activities geared to parenting and just plain relaxing. While there, courtesy of The Tot Squad, attendees were also treated to free thorough cleanings of their non-so-clean baby car seats, strollers, etc.

As you can see from the photo below, the press goody bag was amazing. Stay tuned for future posts in the months ahead as I review my favorite Fall Family Fest brands.

Snacks and drinks were on hand for everyone to enjoy throughout the day. There were also plenty of toys and entertainment to keep the little ones from getting bored. While us moms were pampered with manicures and beauty tips the dads were treated to their own pampering area complete with food, drinks and a big screen plasma HD TV to help them chill and just hang out.

Family Fest was without a doubt a day full of fun for everyone from babies to adults.

MBE blogger Norma Perez and her family were invited to cover Fall Family, received a variety of services at the event and a goody bag as a thank you for attending.
