Project 52 – Week 8

Welcome to my 7th installment of Project 52, my attempt to capture life in a couple pictures once a week rather than each day.

I can’t believe I almost forgot to post this week’s post. Actually I did forget about the post until Rob mentioned it a few minutes.  This week was busy too. I had a whole day with both my little nieces, we went to the Circus and the weather was gorgeous one day so we spent it outside. Enjoy!

cousins, just chillin

it feels like spring

Meet Me At The Bigtop

Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey is back in Philly with it’s newest show; Fully Charged

Fully Charged℠ is an all-new surge of circus entertainment from Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® where megawatts of thrills explode off of the arena floor with breathtaking dare-devilry, superhuman stunts and never-before-seen performances that energize Children of All Ages!

The most electrifying edition ever of Ringling Bros.®celebrates performance power that boosts circus-goers excitement. The amazing acts, which can only be seen at The Greatest Show On Earth®, include Tabayara, a dynamic animal trainer whose rare ability to communicate with animals allows him to ride rearing stallions at a fully charged gallop and orchestrate majestic four-ton Asian Elephants in a symphony of dance. When he stands inside a cage, eye to eye with twelve ferocious tigers, Tabayara sees family where others see danger.

The fun begins Thursday February 17th thru 20th at the Wells Fargo Center. Get your tickets now using the discount code MOM.

Win a 4 pack of vouchers (philadelphia shows only) right here at LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! Just tell me if you’ve ever been to the circus and if so what your favorite part was.

Our night at the Circus-AWESOME

First let me start off by thanking Mom Central and Feld Entertainment for an amazing evening. My family went to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus Over the Top last night and it was the most fun we’ve all had as a family in a long time. If you get the chance to go, GO! It has been at least 25 years since I’ve been to the circus and my kids have never been and Rob couldn’t remember ever going either so this was a memory we will cherish for a long time.

Mom Central set us up with a nice meet and greet before the actual show were we met other mom bloggers. But even better we got to meet the circus performers and take pictures then head to the stage area and watch a circus carnival with dancers, stilt walkers, acrobats and jugglers. They had costumes to try on and props to sit on and everyone was so welcoming and sweet. You’d imagine having to deal with so many people all the time you might get tired of smiling and posing for pictures but these people were NOT. Gracious and inviting is how they treated everyone.

We took way too many pictures so I’m sharing way too many with you but honestly they don’t do the circus justice. I’m not sure what I was expecting but I was in awe most of the time. The kids didn’t make a peep expect for Shae who kept clapping and saying “yayyyyyyyy”. She cheered the elephants and dogs and motorcycles. Tom the Clown was a huge hit with Shaun, his favorite part was when Tom heckled a late comer and used her cell phone to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Sabreena’s favorite act was the Trapeze, the flying artists were so graceful and precise it was absolutely amazing. I must say the Rob and I share the same favorite, 7 motorcycles in a steel ball. I was so freaked out that we were going to witness a crash I thought my eyes were going to bug out of my head. This stunt had to take sooooo much precision and timing and trust, again I was in admiration the whole time.
