Elephants, Tigers and Clowns, OH MY!

The circus is in town...well not anymore technically. Clowns and Elephants and Flying women! Who could ask for anything more? Well at least for a newly turned 6 year old and a four year old you would think it doesn't get any better than that! It does, they have these wonderful men who walk around waving glowing objects that you can wave around, they even have people walking around with snow cones and spun sugar (also know as cotton candy). Never mind that you have to take out a loan to be able to afford to go : ) Lucky for us my parents got free tickets and spoiled the kids with the spun sugar and an elephant ride! I swear the circus used to be funner when I was a kid... but its still pretty amazing and the boys loved it....Lily well she is still deciding. Her favorite part was the elephants and sitting in the pirate clown's lap. Ethan and Matt loved taking their picture with the snake and the woman who was shot out of the cannon ball machine...I think I see a future career for Matt in the circus, he looked right at home.
