Zing, Zang, Zoom!
Yesterday we went to….
(Did you read the bag?) Yup! You got it! The CIRCUS! How fun is that?! “I” had been wanting to go forever and finally I saved up our entertainment allowance for two months and bought the family tickets. We went all out… popcorn, peanuts, and even the painful $12 cotton candy that came with the goofy hat. Of course since it was my idea and I didn’t want the kids to fight over the hat, I got to wear it! But I had to draw the line at the obnoxiously expensive toys that light up.
The kids enjoyed themselves. No crying or screaming. Their eyes were glued to the performers in awe and big smiles in between enjoying their treats. I loved the highwire act and the upside down people. Therese liked the tiger performance. Gianna liked the popcorn and the zebras. Cecilia LOVED all the light and music. Adam’s favorite was acrobats on the swings. Fulton liked the clowns.
We’re already looking forward to next year.
Sounds like a lot of fun! I have never been to a circus…unless you include The Lion King Stage Performance at Disney World. I am glad that you all enjoyed it! The cotton candy looks yummy!
Grandpa is on vacation but when Grandpa was a little boy his dad took him to Ringling Bros. Circus when they were in Chicago. Three rings going on all the time. Grandpa’s favorite was the trapeze artist. Wow those people could really swing. Grandpa also loved the clowns. Grandpa is also finding there are a lot of Bozo drivers here in South Carolina and Grandpa may be among them. Happy you all had fun at the circus. Love Grandpa.
