Saturday you can head out to the Hammer Museum in LA to be a part of the Machine Project, an all day-long (11am-6pm) sound installation by composer Chris Kallmyer. Visitors will be given a bell to wear as they go through the galleries, courtyard, lobby, and other public spaces. Admission to the museum will be free if you participant. Other bell related sound stuff will take place throughout the day, including ice cream carts, animatronic Santa bells, and an African bell ensemble.
Wanna stay in OC and beat the heat?? Head on over to Wild Rivers in Irvine. Get $5 off admission by printing THIS coupon or you can enter the promo code: FUN2 if you get the ticket online.
We hit up the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus this week.
We go every year and I must say this year was my favorite!!
I feel like in the past the circus has tried to separate themselves from the stereotypical circus clichés but this year they embraced them in ‘Barnum’s FUNundrum’, and it worked!!
Six huge screens scrolled through vintage circus posters during each act. It was beautiful! The performers were spectacular and the whole thing, from costumes to acts, had a modern-classic-art-deco-type-feel to me. Loved it!
The kiddos were riveted…
We tried to get a family photo, but this was the best of the bunch.
The kiddos were on a sugar high from one of Staples Center’s delicious caramel covered apples. It has been a family tradition to get an apple when the dessert cart makes the rounds since Hot Hubby and I were dating. My mouth is watering just thinking about them!!
You can see the Circus in…
…LA at the Staples Center till July 18th.
…Ontario at the Citizens Business Bank Arena from July 21st – July 25th.
…Orange County at the Honda Center from July 28th – August 8th.
The folks at the circus are offering a multi-ticket MOM Discount! It’s $48 for a Family Four-Pack on select performances or $4 off single ticket prices on select shows. The discount can be redeemed online at Ticket Master or by calling (800) 745-3000. Use the discount code ‘MOM’.

Sign Cyrus up and you can get him free admission. I did not know about this with Easton and I signed Makenlee up. I still have the free admission to use anytime they come to town. The times they have come has not worked out but since it does not expire it does not matter.

I love that family photo! I feel like we can never get a good one of everybody’s face, but that is what makes them so funny…kids are little and hilarious! I love it!
