Circus

Saturday the boys and I went to the Circus here in Paso. The boys were so excited they were dressed by 7:15am and the circus didn't start till 2:00! At about 9:00 we did go watch them put up the tent and pet a few of the animals. One thing we learned was they use the elephants to help put up the tent. Never knew that! Afterward we went to Target to get some circus snacks for the kids. (my friends idea...we got them circus cookies, circus peanuts, popcorn, juice. They each had their own bag and loved it!!)






Me, Carolyn, Cameron, Kyle, Tyler, Kory, Trey and Betsy! Trey preferred Betsy that day! I didn't mind. He was better for her than he was for me...plus I'd been up with him the night before till 2:30am...I enjoyed the break!
Each of the boys enjoyed the circus. I sat by Kyle and he said, "This is more amazing than it is funny." Interesting observation!Kory watched in amazement!Trey enjoyed everything--when on Betsy's lap...on mine he just wanted to walk up and down the stairs!
Tyler loved the snacks!

The circus was so much fun and I loved having Trey on my lap as he pointed and "grunted" at all the neat things! It was a fun day and we were dirty and bushed! Thanks for a great time!

HOW FUN!!!! That's amazing that the elephants help put the tents up. I thought they only did that in "Dumbo"! You look way cute too! I love your hair that way!

I was thinking the "Dumbo" thing too since that is a movie that gets played over and over right now in this house. :) Glad the boys had fun.

Kyle is so right. They aren't really that funny. It is amazing what they can do though. Looks like you all had fun!
