The circus is in town!

Last week we took the family to see Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Baileys Circus. Erich and I hadn't been since we were children, and it was a first for the kids. My sister Brenda and her boyfriend, Victor, joined us as well. We had a blast! At first, the kids were a bit nervous that the tigers would be close enough to bite. But once the show began, they were mesmerized. Carson loved the aerial acrobats that dangled and twirled from ceiling. And Cassie was a fan of the tumbling routine. She has since decided that she is going to take gymnastics and become an acrobat. I am pretty sure that they were just as taken with the wide array of circus treats, such as popcorn, peanuts, snow cones, and cotton candy. It was a terrific evening that I will remember for a long time.
