The big top

Well, it was OVER a week ago now since we went to the Circus, but here is the recap:) Let me begin by saying that we are not really "circus people", but when Grandma says she got tickets for everyone, who's going to argue? So there. We all had a great "linner" at Azteca and then we headed over to Comcast arena. John enjoyed engaging the PETA picketers before the show;) No pictures of that:) Mina liked meeting the clowns before the show:)
and the "pre" elephant show
Mina was excited to sit next to grandma!
Max....well.....
I know it looks like he's tired, but rest assured he was NOT happy for the whole first half of the show. He sat with his arms folded and a stern look on his face. The only thing we can think of that set him off was he had to change seats before the show started! Geez, Max! Well during intermission we moved around and he sat next to me.
and daddy:)
much better:)  They said that there was no flash photography and even though "everyone else was doing it" I didn't really take any pics during the show. For not being "circus people" we had a pretty good time:) And hey, the kids liked it, which is what it's all about, right?:)

Fun! I kinda want to go, but I kinda agree with PETA on this one too. Hmm...:) Who's the little boy sitting on your lap, I thought you had a baby? I'm confused! Ya'll are adorable.

Haha, I would have loved to have watched John with the PETA folks! That made me lol. And Max, my man! Too funny. I miss that kid. Did they have the motorcycles in the cage? I can't believe it's only been a year since we went...Joseph and I were talking, to me it feels like two, to him it feels like 6 months?!?
