The Circus

I have always wanted to go to the circus so when I saw a good deal on groupon for one right by our house I jumped on it.  I'm so glad I did, we all loved it.

None of us knew quite what to expect, but we were all quite impressed.  They started out with tigers.  The kids loved watching the tigers jump through a ring of fire.

Caitlyn was really excited for the horses.  The horses didn't want to cooperate that night, but they were still really fun to watch. The kids also loved the dogs.  We all think Jackson would make a great circus dog, he can jump crazy high and walk on two paws.

The boys loved the motorcycle riders in the cage.  I was pretty tense when they were both riding in there.  Caitlyn turned to me and said, "I hope their mothers' aren't here."  Classic difference between boys and girls, Jonah wanted a motorcycle after watching them and Caitlyn was worried about their safety.

We all loved watching this guy.  This bar went around in a big circle. He started out inside the tube and then walked outside of it.  He did all sorts of jumps and tricks and even did it blind folded.  The other acrobats were really fun to watch too.

We all loved watching the elephants.  They were very well trained. 

All of the acts were so impressive and fun to watch.  The circus lasted almost three hours.  They ended the night by shooting a man out of a cannon.  It was a late night, but totally worth it.
