Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey presents: DRAGONS! [GIVEAWAY]

This giveaway is now CLOSED.  Congrats to Vicky, who said that her favorite part of the Circus is "anything way up high that gives me sweaty palms!" And Brian who said "My family really enjoys the circus, and it's here the week of my birthday.".  You two have 24 hours to claim your prize!  Contact me at Katie(at)Cards-by-Katie(dot)com!
Thanks to all that entered, stay tuned for more great posts, recipes, crafts and of course, GIVEAWAYS!!!

Our family loves the Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Bailey Circus and I think that this is probably the most highly anticipated Circus our family has ever experienced....because the DRAGONS are coming!  My dragon-obsessed sons are going to flip their lids!  I love how each circus that comes to town has a unique twist to make things more exciting.  Not only do we get to go experience the Circus this year, but I have TWO sets of tickets to give away!

Here's a description of the show:
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® Presents DRAGONS is a once in a millennium event that honors The Year of the Dragon. Circus performers from the farthest reaches of the earth have assembled for Ringling Bros.® Presents Dragons to showcase their astounding acts of bravery and astonishing athleticism. Ringling Bros. Ringmaster Johnathan Lee Iverson presides over this fantastical celebratory tournament of circus champions that brings together mystic dragon lore with authentic circus feats. Dragons is a never-before-seen blend of renowned spiritual and real life legends that can be found only at The Greatest Show On Earth®!

You can find a cool video on the little things blog facebook page.  And you can find out how to get a good deal on tickets on this post.

I don't see my comments from before, so I'm republishing....

1. I want to win these tickets so my children and I can stop watching the preview of the circus on our computer, considering this has become their favorite past-time as of late. Seeing it live would blow their minds!!!!
2. I shared this giveaway on Facebook, Twitter, and G+...cuz I wanna win.
3. I already follow you on Facebook.
4. My personal favorite part of the circus is typically the food :), but now it would be watching my childrens' reactions.
5.I already follow you on Twitter.

My email is indigo823@hotmail.com, and we would love tickets to any of the Saturday or Sunday shows. Thank you!
