Last weekend we got to go on a fun little adventure to The Grand America Hotel to celebrate the holidays!  It is such a fun place to stay during December because they have so many fun Christmas activities!  Anything from Tea Time with Santa, deals on rooms, and specialty treats at La Bonnie Vie.  There are also complimentary things to do like a window display tour, a giant homemade gingerbread house that smells oh so tasty, and awesome chocolate chip cookies at the front desk!  

Walking into the hotel, it was covered in garland and beautifully decorated Christmas trees!  In the evening, the courtyard is covered in lights and is stunning sight to see out our bedroom window.  If you are looking for something fun to do during the holidays, The Grand has a special deal for you!

The Package includes a $50 gift card for City Creek Center shopping center and a $50 credit that can be used anywhere in the hotel, including brunch at The Garden Café, treatments at the Grand Spa, La Bonne Vie, the JouJou toy store and more.

Guests can also enjoy access to The Grand Spa free of charge.  The Shopping at The Grand Package starts at $289/night and reservations can be made online at www.grandamerica.com.

Jake and I have been loving doing videos lately and are planning on posting them regularly on our YouTube channel!  Make sure to subscribe so you don't miss a post!  Here is a video from our time exploring The Grand and having fun checking out all the Christmas decor!

Are you guys so excited for Christmas soon?  It is coming up real quick!  Here is some outfit ideas if you have some holiday parties coming up!  

We love parties because it's a perfect time to dress up and go out on a date together!  With lots of parties and staying within the holiday color pallet, we are always on the look out for a way to change up our looks.

One of our favorite ways to mix up a look is pairing it with a cool watch.  We have talked about Daniel Wellington before and how much we love their watches!  The quality is always fantastic and the neat leather and nylon designs are the perfect way to add a fun statement to any type of outfit!

With Christmas right around the corner Daniel Wellington has some awesome holiday discounts that you will want to check out.  They also have free world-wide shipping with any watch purchase!  I love shopping at places that offer free shipping.  It is the extra cherry on top when that package comes in the mail :)

Today and until January 15th 2016, Daniel Wellington is offering 15% any order for kelseybang.com readers when you use discount code "kelseybang" at checkout!  Thanks for stopping by today! Have a great Tuesday!

*Big thank you to Daniel Wellington for sponsoring this post!

We couldn't make a trip to California without stopping by Disneyland!  We love seeing the Christmas decor and just love it there anytime of the year!  They also released special addition Disneyland Tsum Tsums, so that was a real draw for us to go to the park!  They only had three of them at the Disneyland store, so we hope to find the rest on eBay or something!

Sadly though, they did not deck out Disneyland with as many christmas decorations that they normally do since it was the 60th Anniversary celebration still going on.  One thing super unique and cute they did this year though was dress up the Jungle Cruise to be the Jingle Cruise!  They did such an awesome job with it, it was so fun to go on!  We didn't expect that ride to be decked out for the holidays so it was a real treat!

We had so much fun at Disneyland it all went by too quick!  What is your favorite time of the year to visit Disneyland?  Thanks for stopping by today! Have a wonderful weekend :)

Jake and I got to take a trip to Utah's Hogle Zoo on Thanksgiving Day!  We got there at 9am when it opened and stayed till 12:30pm when we needed to head off to Thanksgiving dinner.  It was the perfect amount of time to walk through the zoo and say hello to all the cute animals!

We made sure to bundle up since we knew it was going to be pretty chilly outside.  I forget to bring something for my head and was happy they had some ear muffs in the gift shop!  Jake was smart and brought a beanie!

One of our favorite animals we saw was the leopards.  If you wear faux fur, they love it and will pounce on the glass to come say hi to you!  Last time we were at the zoo, the cats jumped on the glass wall when they saw my coat and they did it this time too!  It is awesome!  I think they think I am an animal and want to play! hehe

We had no idea that going to the zoo on Thanksgiving morning would be the perfect time to go!  With the chilly weather, the animals were so active and were all playing outside!  The zoo also wasn't too crowded so we got a great view to see all the animals.

P.S. We decided to do a couple holiday Vlogs and we have some super fun things planned!  We were testing it out different clips and made a little video!

Coral Casino Beach and Cabana Club Pool

When we stayed at the gorgeous Four Seasons The Biltmore in Santa Barbara, they had a fun place called the Coral Casino Beach and Cabana Club Pool.  Jake is such a water bug and loves to swim, so we spent quite a bit of time over there!  They have a heated pool that overlooks the ocean, a fun restaurant and lots of beautiful places to sit and enjoy the Pacific Ocean views!

The beach club had a white exterior with fun hints of pink!  It was so pretty against all the blue water and made it the perfect ambience to get a work out and swim some laps, or sit back and enjoy the great weather outside.  Even though it was the begging of December when we went on our trip, the weather was perfect during the day to swim in the water!

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday!
