Circus!




Last night we took the kids to the Ringling Brothers/ Barnum and Bailey Circus. It has been brought to our attention off and on over the years that the kids have never been to a circus (which isn't completely true, Maria went when she was three), but mostly it's because they always come to town in the middle of May, when we have so many other things going on. But this year we made it a priority.

And it was so worth it, because the kids loved it. They both sat on the edge of their seats during the first half (energy levels started to wane in the second half -it was a Friday night). And Sam must have said "That's awesome" a million times. In addition to the usual circus stuff, they also had stunt motorcyclists which was right up Sam's alley.

So I'm glad we finally got to go - even if it will make getting the kids out of bed for soccer soon difficult - we didn't get home until 11:00!
