By KristinN, on December 22nd, 2010 I teach the children's choir at Calvary Church of Santa Ana, and we had our final concert of 2010 on Saturday, December 19th.

By KristinN, on December 19th, 2010 So last night (Sat 18th) I went to my church choir party. We played this very fun game.

By KristinN, on December 13th, 2010 OK, so I usually don't do this but I did come across this deal and I know Red Box is everywhere. I know me and my family use it often and we definitely are always looking to save a buck. I know for time off during Christmas, we will very likely be renting

By KristinN, on December 10th, 2010 Christmas will be here sooner than you think but even St. Nick can spare a few minutes for the awesome kids in Tustin. Every year Santa stops by for a visit with the help of Tustin's finest, the Tustin PD.
I especially enjoyed a few years ago when my son was able

So it's been quite a while since I've visited the Tustin Area Historical Society but just like any place that houses and displays history, I find it fascinating.

By KristinN, on December 2nd, 2010 My son absolutely HATES to write. I am an eclectic Charlotte Masoner, but all the writing that she has a child do just does not sit well with my son. You see he can re-tell a story almost word for word and he can make up a great 4+ sentence story too. BUT ask him
