My family LOVES when Monster Jam comes to Sacramento! It is an event that the whole family WANTS to go to! We can always count on having a FUN time at Monster Jam!

We went last night, opening night and it was a BLAST. We always look forward to seeing who Grave Digger is going to be competing with. This time we seen El Toro Loco, Jurassic Attack, Megalodon, Earth Shaker, Velociraptor, MM Rotweiler and Thunderroarus.

We have our favorites but its always exciting to see trucks that we have not seen  yet. It was our first time seeing the Thunderroarus truck which I think looks AWESOME! …

December would have to be my FAVORITE month of the year. I love all the lights, decorations, scents, sounds and especially the Christmas movies that I can watch with my family.  For those of you Hallmark fans like me, don’t miss out on the Hallmark  Channel Original Premiere of The Secret Gift of Christmas this FRIDAY at 8PM/7C! Let’s watch together! You can find me live tweeting throughout the movie and interacting with others watching as well.

About the movie…

Bonnie is a personal shopper who helps her new, widowed client Patrick reconnect with his young daughter. Though Bonnie and Patrick’s ideas of shopping couldn’t be more different, she is determined to get Patrick and his daughter everything on their wish list. Starring Meghan Ory and Christopher Russell.

Take a peek at the preview below…

I would have to say that I am a sucker for these Hallmark love stories so I am excited to watch this one this Friday! Whenever I watch one of these movies, I am always looking out for the Christmas tree lighting scene! I don’t think I have scene one of the Hallmark holiday movies without one.

This is just one of the many Hallmark love stories you can watch on the Hallmark Channel this holiday season! There are actually 31 new original movies premiering throughout #CountdowntoChristmas.

One thing you will want to have handy is snacks and something to drink when watching these movies. Make sure you have them all ready before the movie even starts because if your like me, you don’t want to miss anything. Every year at this time I make my holiday cookies to give as gifts. I also like to enjoy my cookies while watching Christmas movies with my loved ones. My favorite drink to sip on while enjoying the movies would be hot chocolate + marshmallows. Maybe even a candy candy to stir the hot chocolate with!

Last night me and my 4 kids went to Monster Jam and it was a BLAST! We have been fans for years but haven’t been to a Monster Jam show in a few years because of covid. It was AWESOME to get back into the arena and see some of my FAVORITE monster trucks!

I will always have LOVE for Grave Digger but now I am also a FAN of the Monster Mutt Dalmation monster truck that is driven by Bailey Shea. I remember when she first started driving the Scooby Doo truck back in 2015 and I thought it was so awesome that a female was driving one of these humungous trucks in the arena.

This is an event that can be fun for the family. It can be loud and I did see many children wearing the ear muff headphones to help protect their ears. I also seen so many kids having a blast routing on their favorite monster trucks. The crowds for these types of events always are having so much fun.

Every time you go to these shows you are sure to see something new. Last night was the first time I seen the Velociraptor monster truck in action.

I want to talk about Megalodon! Last night this monster truck was being driven by Ashley Sanford who is a rookie to the Monster Jam family! She is from California and shares the same birthday as one of my daughters so I will be keeping an eye out for her next time!

I mentioned before that I LOVE Grave Digger. Last night Tyler Menninga was driving the Grave Digger monster truck in the Golden 1 Center arena last night and gave us such an awesome show. Take a peek at one my my favorite parts of the show last night.

This wasn’t all the trucks we seen last night. We also seen Scooby-Doo, El Toro Loco, Jurassic Attack and the Earth Shaker in the arena showing off their moves. I have always been a fan of the El Toro Loco truck. Take a peek at El Toro Loco in action below.
