I can remember going to the circus as a kid and I always looked forward to going one day with my child!

My parents bought tickets for Little Bug and me!

We got there a little early and had a hot dog lunch.

Then the show began and this picture shows how intently Little Bug watched (even if it is a little blurry).

We saw tigers

the flying trapeze

clown acts

elephants

and a crazy 8-motorcycles in a ball act!

At intermission Little Bug wanted to ride the

escalator!

Here we are standing in front of the WAY over-priced circus trinkets for kids! I seriously couldn’t believe some of the prices for that stuff. Ridiculous.

I enjoyed an outing with my big girl. Dave stayed home with Sweet Pea. The circus is NOT the place for little Sweet Pea at this time in her life. I kept imagining her there and I probably would have been crying right along with her! I was so glad she was home safe and sound with her Daddy.

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for treating us to a day at the circus!
