A Day in the Park with Jennifer Garner.

My family and I were able to attend the THE ODD LIFE OF TIMOTHY GREEN, Frigidaire and Disney’s Adventures In Clean event, along with Jennifer Garner.  This was a day of fun filled activities from beginning to end.  My son keeps asking me when are we going back.

This day seemed to be the hottest day this summer, but with all of the activities I did not to worry about the heat.  There was definitely plenty of food and drinks.  When we arrived the kids were given a swag bag that had a water bottle and a Frigidaire tee shirt.  That water bottle has come in very handy for my seven year old that attends summer camp in these high temperatures.  All of the children put their tee shirts on, in preparation for the days activities.  They looked so adorable. 

While we waited to start the day, we ate a plethora of food.  There were veggie and chicken sliders, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches that had pretzels and bananas in them, veggie salad, macaroni balls, dessert and plenty of ice cold beverages.



We were split up into groups, our group was the green team.  We had a towel folding race for the mothers and the children, then there was an obstacle race for the kids and tug of war.  After the games were complete, we took group pictures.  You cannot have a fun party without a group picture. 


The day at the park was so much fun. This was one of those times, I was okay with my son getting dirty.  Thank you Frigidaire for the tee shirt, I just wish you could have given me the washer and dryer to wash it out in.  Seriously, we had a wonderful time.



After the day in the park we were shuttled over to see the movie The Odd Life of Timothy Green, in which Jennifer Garner is starring in.  It was so funny, because when we reached the theather, there were so many cameras and people watching us walk in on the green carpet.  My daughter, is now upset, because she did not do her over the shoulder pose and my son keeps asking me, "Are we famous."

We enjoyed the entire day and are glad an invitation was extended to us.

Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Did It Again!

Circus Day  finally arrived and my seven year old was ready.  I was so proud of him, because the morning of the show he went upstairs to get his circus hat from last year.  He was going to be prepared for the evening Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailyey Dragons Show. We arrived just as the preshow was ending.  It was not my fault a 30 minute drive took 2 hours in Los Angeles traffic. 

Needless to say we were seated for the beginning of the main show.  As soon as the ring master stood center stage and asked the children in the audience to stand, it was like we were attending the largest music concert.  The kids were on their feet and following his instructions.  It is always so good to hear the sounds of happy children and watch the expressions of excitement on their face.  Attending a Ringling Bros circus is one place where kids and can be kids. 

The anticipation of seeing the dragons was rising in my section.  As soon as the winged Sky Dragons came out, the crowd went crazy, the kids did have the Spirit of the Dragon.  What a way to begin a show!

One of my favorite acts was the Hair-Haning Wonders of The West.  My daughter and I talked about it after the show and decided if that were us hanging by our hair we would have never survived, mainly because our hair is not thick.   

Watching the animals is always fun, but watching Maestro of Magnificent cats kept us on the edge of our seats.  As the tamer, Alexander Lacey performed with the lions and tigers, I was so relieved when he told us that what we saw was part of the show.  It was such a wonderful performance.  I sinced he really loves the animals. 

I just have to mention the Scorching Skywheels of the West.  That was probably the best act of the night,  watching the motorcycle on the wire, 70 feet above the ground, with the two young ladys spinning was so exciting.  I wish I could go into detail, but you have to see it.  All I can say is this was definitely a great performance.

Besides all of the performing the colors, the music and just the overall energy was incredible, that is why Ringling Bros. has done it again.  They are so creative with the theme and making sure there is a message for everyone to walk away with.  My family and I really liked the show.

We had a wonderful time and hope to attend next years circus.  All I can say is, "I have the spirit in me."  If you not made plans to go to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Baily Dragons, add it to your things to do this summer.  You will have a wonderful time.
