The Circus...came to town...

The kids came home from school with free
tickets to the circus. Since it was Steve's vacation
this week we decided to go...

Here is the happy crew.

The juggler. He juggled knives and fire and other stuff.

This lady makes my head hurt. She is suspended by her hair. Talk about split ends.


And the big show at the end...the live boxing kangaroo. He beat up the clown.

Other than the fact that it was a money making endeavor. They would get the kids worked up into a frenzy about getting their mom and dad to buy this and that...then they would have a chance at a flunky dollar store prize...it was good. Curtis had one melt down because we wouldn't get him a coloring book, Maggie was mad because I ate her melting snowcone that she left with me to watch the circus up close with the other kids. She wanted to eat the snowcone 45 min later...yeah right. It was fun for the kids as they have never been to a circus before. They didn't really know what to expect. Low expectations are sometimes good to have. :)
