Circus

Saturday, Noah, Luke and I met John in Oklahoma City. He had been at youth church camp all week and the boys and I were in Fairview visiting family. It was nice to be back together again. We celebrated by going to the circus. It is the first time Noah or Luke had been to the circus. Of course, I don't think Luke will remember much...have even slept through some of it!

They had a pre-show before the circus where you could walk around to see the clowns, get tattoos, see the acrobats, see the main elephant, guys on stilts, guys who juggled, try on outfits, take a picture on the motorcycle, and more. Mommy picked up a couple clown noses for the boys...aren't they cute! This was one of my favorite things. I saw them in the pre-show but unfortunately missed it during the show...Luke got hungry. It was right up my alley...they are pretty much gymnast/cheerleaders.

Noah's favorite part of the circus was the elephants. He loves elephants. Daddy and Mommy are often elephants around the house while Noah rides on our back. We also recently saw the new baby elephant at the Oklahoma City zoo. I don't think they rank higher than the hippo on Noah's chart but they are pretty cool! I had to get several pictures of the elephants so that we could refer back to them when Noah needs an elephant fix.

They also had lots of tigers. It was neat to see them. They were soooo big! I am sure that man fears for his life a little each time he does that. I am pretty sure I don't want to have that job when I grow up!I enjoyed the trampolines too. It was neat to see them flying so high and doing trips without running into each other. Pretty neat!Noah had a blast and really focused in on the elephants. I would say he was a bit young and uninterested in most anything that wasn't an animal. He is a pretty active boy to be sitting there so long but did well. It was the first time he has gone anywhere that he had to sit for a while and do well with it. We haven't attempted any other shows or movies and he didn't do well at football or basketball games...maybe in another year.Here is my sweet Luke. Isn't he cute...and tired!

We had a blast! Thanks Grammy and Pop for taking us! It was so fun to experience it with you two!
