Monster Jam in Raleigh!




Monster Jam in Raleigh!

Last night we had the opportunity to see Monster Jam here in Raleigh. It was truly fun for the entire family - young and old couldn't help but yell and cheer for their favorite Monster Trucks!

Near the very beginning, the IronMan truck flipped over while trying to perform in the Wheelie competition - in the words of my son "that is so cool". Even though the Monster Truck had some damage, he continued on throughout the night.

Everyone's favorite Monster truck last night was North Carolina's own Grave Digger - celebrating 30 years of Monster Madness!

The Monster Trucks put on a great show - wheelies, racing, and freestyle! It was loud and fun and a great way to spend a night with the family!!!! Thank you so much to Feld Entertainment for allowing my family to enjoy this great family event!

Monster Jam will be performing at PNC Arena on:

Friday, April 6, 7:30 PM

Saturday, April 7, 2 p.m., 7:30 PM

Have Fun!!!!

Disney Phineas and Ferb - truly the BEST show ever!





Disney Phineas and Ferb - truly the BEST show ever!

Once again, Disney has created a wonderful show great for the entire family!

This past Saturday, we went and saw the Disney Phineas and Ferb show at DPAC. It was a lot of fun! All the Phineas and Ferb characters were there - even Agent P! The show included many songs from the show - including everyone's favorite "Squirrels in my Pants"! Everyone in the theatre couldn't help but clap and sing along!

The show was interactive and very entertaining for young and old alike. Be sure to find out when Phineas and Ferb: The Best Live Tour ever! is coming your way.

Thanks so much to Feld Entertainment for allowing my family to attend and enjoy this great Disney show!
