Erin and I heard the circus was coming to town and we couldn't resist getting tickets. We weren't really sure how Jack would react to the whole experience, but overall he did pretty well and I think really had a good time. The first half was a bit rocky because it started off with a motorcycle somehow made to be louder than a freight train zooming right in front of us and scaring the living daylights out of Jack. He immediately wanted to leave and was crying and asking to go bye-bye. Luckily, Daddy came to the rescue from the concession stand and a soft pretzel and bag cotton candy convinced Jack we should stay for awhile. He was a bit squirmy for the first half, but the second was packed full of entertaining animals (lions, horses, zebras elephants and dancing dogs) so he sat contently watching it all in amazement. Here are some pictures from our adventure....
Getting ready to go....
We got there a bit early and got to walk around and meet clowns!
Most pictures of the actual circus were too dark, but this one of the elephants turned out ok..
Jack also loved this...a guy running around inside a circle that was flying around (hard to explain but very cool)...
Part of the cotton candy purchase included this bonus wizard hat. Jack had fun wearing it....and of course wanted to come home and make some baskets with his new hat on. What a character...
