Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus Presents DRAGONS Review



I remember as a kid, sitting in a seat between my parents or my grandparents, eating cotton candy and pop corn, waiting to see what the circus had to offer!


Now I got to take MY kids to see the circus!   Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus!  And the COOLEST thing... there were DRAGONS!


Going opening night has its perks!  We got to see the animals before the show.  We also learned facts about elephants!







My friends kids and mine looking at the animals and learning!








My little ones and husband! My baby girl LOVED the elephants!

Once inside, we were able to go down to the floor.  We met the clowns and some of the performers.  We also got to see some previews of some acts! 


There were big cats!  Little cats!  Horses! Dogs! Llamas! Donkeys! Elephants! 
Trapeze artists!  Martial Arts!  Motorcycles!  
CLOWNS!
My hubby is a clown in training!





The circus never disappoints!  There were kids ages 0-99 attending! GREAT fun!
And I was pleasantly surprised that I had only 2 melt downs from my children!  And they were both from the 1 year old who was tired.  But the melt downs were short and she was dancing and clapping again!
Thanks to all the performers and promoters and everyone in between for a WONDERFUL night!


All pictures were taken by me!

Fall Into Fun September 21- October 31


Our passion is harvesting new family traditions through a fun and creative oasis of activities. Our approach is simple; plant with imagination, water with fun, grow something special. Attractions include an adventurous corn maze, a plentiful pumpkin patch, antique tractor hayrides, and an imaginative fall festival town. There are so many creative seeds waiting to sprout that our farmers secretly planted all over Mile High Farms! We're looking forward to sharing our farm with you and your family! Visit our web site often for more details and join us on Facebook to see what else our farmers have up their sleeve. Located at 11 Cavanaugh Road in Bennett, Colorado.


I am SUPER excited to visit MILE HIGH FARMS this year in the fall!  From what I hear, they have a great petting zoo, a really cool corn maze...( I heard something about it being shaped like Payton Manning?), pumpkin patch, Grover's Garden and Grover and his friends! 


My little family is starting to form our own family traditions and I love the idea of going to farms in the fall and  doing fun things for Halloween!  


Here is a coupon to get ya started!

I know some of my friends are not here in Colorado and are unable to check out this great place!  So go to USFamilyGuide.com and find something fun to do this fall and Halloween!
