Fully Charged At the Circus #RBBBATL




Last year was Broxton's first time going to the circus and we had a blast.  
That being said, I knew that I wanted to take him whenever they returned... Not to mention it seems to be right around his birthday, so that makes it extra special.

A friend of mine saw that Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey were headed our way...
They called to see if we were planning on going, as they remembered how much we talked about enjoying the show last year.  Of course, we were... So, they got tickets to go the same night.

Marc, Broxton and I got there early for the "media behind the scenes" event.  

We got to listen to the animal handler talk... Broxton got to pet the horses...  




We even got to watch an elephant up close and personal!
After the different animals, Broxton had the chance to meet a few of the different clowns.  I know that some kids are scared of clowns, but he was cracking up laughing at them!!!!


After that, we headed over to the Wardrobe area for Broxton to try on an outfit before the Pre-Show started...

 Once the Circus Pre-Show started, Marc and Broxton grabbed seats down on the end to see the animals again while I meandered around looking at all the activities going on.  I HIGHLY recommend going early to see this!  (It is included in your ticket price and there are great photo opportunities!) 

We were able to watch the elephant paint a picture, that was later given to someone through a drawing held right before the show started...


The start of the show!!!!!
Broxton laughing at the clowns!  (I could have listened to this forever!)

 Once the show started, it was over...

We had to grab the lemonade and popcorn...I do believe this is going to be part of our circus tradition...

Then, we were in for a treat!!!!

This particular show is called "Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey : Fully Charged."  

We had a great time!  From all the circus acts going on, to the excitement of all the children...
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED watching and listening to Broxton laughing at everything the clowns did!  
It was worth it all, to see the excitement on his face!

My favorite part of the show!!!!
Of course, I love the elephants too!

 Once it was over, I had to ask Marc his favorite:  He agreed with me.. The guys on the silver circle thing... AWESOME!  Broxton loved the clowns the most!!! (He has even had to reenact them for us!)
My friends loved it all and thought the acrobatic work was the best....

Of course, we ALL agree... We will be going next year... 
And we for sure recommend it... 

It really is the Greatest Show On Earth!  
For Children of ALL Ages!!!!

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c

Momma Must Have - Exergen Temporal Thermometer- Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, it can sometimes be a bit difficult to take the temperature of a sick child. Hey, some adults are known to be big babies... The longer they have to wait, the fussier they become. Well, with the Exergen Temporal Scanner ... Wait is something that can be eliminated! Why do I say that? Just because the wait is merely 2 seconds! During that time, you will already be finished a gift giveaway blog hop, exergen temporal scanner, mom must have, R nd moving on to something else. I really like the ease of the Exergen Thermometer. It has a soft tip on it that you gently swipe across the forehead of your "patient." There are two things that make this stand out compared to others that I have used. One - If you are sweating, you can place it behind your ear to get your temperature. Two - There is a light on both sides to show you that it is on. I like that, as I sometimes worry if it is on or not... You know how I can be! First, remove the protective cap... Turn it on...
