At the Circus

The circus came to town this week, and we were able to take the kids yesterday. The twins were SO EXCITED for it! Will wanted to see the clowns, and Anna was hoping to see "a girl, who, you know, spins a baton."

Here we are, waiting for the show to start.

At intermission, Larkin walked the twins around the different areas. There was a spot to ride on a real elephant, pony rides, pet and feed the llamas, have your picture taken with different circus performers, etc. Larkin kept asking them if they wanted to do any of those things, and they kept saying, "No thanks!" Because they were so good about not needing or wanting anything, Larkin really wanted to do something special for them. So they came back to our seats with cotton candy!

We weren't supposed to take pictures during the performance, but I had to sneak some shots of the elephants. They were so cool!


In the end, we all had our favorite parts of the show.
Larkin - the motorcycle guys

Allyson - the elephants
Will - the motorcycle guys ("but not when the girl was in there")
Anna - the part when the clown's car was on fire

Josh - the nap he took on Larkin's lap during the second half

We had such a fun time at the circus!
