Disney On Ice presents Treasure Trove: The Best Show Ever!

December 1, 2012
Posted by critters and crayons

We just returned from Disney On Ice presents Treasure Trove at Laredo Energy Arena.

My Goodness!

What a Show!!!

Our kids have been looking forward to this show for months!

With each post run by C&C leading up to it, they watched the videos and looked at the photos with me and their dad. Each morning was met with at least one inquiry as to whether or not Today was THE Day that we would go to Disney On Ice.

This week was so full of anticipation that it gave me plenty of “consequence-leverage”. They have been very, very good this week. :)

Here are a few photos I was able to catch at the show’s opening!

It is not an exaggeration to say that this show was the BEST show that we’ve seen at Laredo Energy Arena since we’ve been here.

I am thrilled that my 4 and 5 year old are at an age where they can recognize the characters and storyline. They enjoyed these events when they were younger, of course. But, this time, they were able to really shout out their complete happiness!

When I watched them watching the show, I remembered going to Disney On Ice events with my own parents as a child. And it me just as happy as they were to know that they would also be remembering nights like these when they sit with their own kids one day.

As each new act came out with characters from The Incredibles, The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, The Lion King, Peter Pan, Snow White, The Little Mermaid, The Princess And The Frog, and so many more, the creativity and skill of the dancers and crews who helped to pull this magnificent show together became more and more apparent.

Absolutely every part of the show was full of unexpected details: glittery pixie dust, fireworks, flights through the air, gorgeous lighting, amazing props and stages, spectacular costumes, brilliant special effects, and beautiful, breath-taking skating and dancing choreography.

If you haven’t purchased tickets to the show yet, you really should.

Seriously.

Best.

Show.

EVER.

Here is the General Show Information for anyone that still may want to buy tickets!

Name: Disney On Ice presents Treasure Trove

Discover endless riches when Disney On Ice presents Treasure Trove comes to your hometown! Get tangled up in Disney’s 50^th animated feature with Rapunzel and Flynn and enter the worlds of your other favorite Disney princesses –Tiana, Cinderella, Jasmine, Ariel, Sleeping Beauty, Belle, Mulan and of course, the one who started it all, Snow White. Ahoy, Mateys! Set sail with Peter Pan, the always sassy Tinker Bell and the cantankerous Captain Hook and his pirate pals on an adventure beyond Never Land! Trek the wilds of Africa with Simba, Nala, Pumbaa and Timon as they discover the true meaning of the ‘Circle of Life.’ Tick-Tock! Tick-Tock!

Devine Acres Farm: A Great South Texas Family Experience!

October 15, 2012
Posted by critters and crayons

It’s been a year since we’ve been back to Devine Acres Farm. You can see last year’s post on it here. Without knowing much about the farm, we thought we were going to take photos with some pumpkins.

We quickly learned there was much, much more than that waiting for us. So, of course, we went back this year.

For Laredoans, it is about an hour and a half away. But, it is so worth the drive.

If you go, I recommend you leave earlier in the morning before the afternoon heat hits.

Devine Acres offers a truly rustic, old farm experience for families amidst its sea of planted Christmas Trees. The place is green and marked by oak trees, with towering windmills and all kinds of games and play areas for the kids:

water duck racing,
fishing (don’t bring your poles, just pick one up around the pond),
bean bag tosses,
tractor hay rides,
a gorgeous park with swings under oak trees,
live music,
face painting,
a petting area,
a tricycle track,
and many more family activities!

Oh- and there IS a pumpkin patch where kids can decorate their pumpkins, too.

To see more photos of the excellent time waiting for you for $8 a person (3+), you can see the gallery below.

Devine Acres Farm also offers

school field trips,
deals for groups and parties,
a photo contest
and they also host a great event at Christmas time called Pancakes With Santa.

Critters And Crayons also includes information about Devine Acres Farms in the Laredo Community Round-Up during the Fall and Winter seasons. Just click on the image below to check it out.

You can find more information about Devine Acres Farm via the official website here or on the Facebook Page here.

Days like this, in places like this, are what family memories are made of. If you are in South Texas and you haven’t visited, you really, really should.

*****

This is NOT a sponsored post. I was not asked to review or promote Devine Acres Farm nor did I receive any form of compensation to write this post. This is simply a review of a fantastic activity that families should know about if you live anywhere near Devine, Texas. :)
