The Greatest Show on Earth!

Because it really is! For anyone who has ever been, the Ringling Brothers Circus really is amazing! So amazing that squirmy little toddlers will sit in your lap for a whole TWO hours in shock and awe! Squirmy little toddlers who will hardly sit still for anything, except for the circus I guess.

When I found out the circus was coming to town I told Jameson that was what I wanted to do for my birthday. When I found out Jameson would not be able to go I was sad. I almost wanted to tell him not to go at all just so he could go to the circus, but I knew I shouldn't. He would have loved it too.

There were horses, tigers, lions, cats & dogs, and elephants, all of which did some pretty cool tricks. There were girls hanging from a glass ball from the ceiling doing acrobatics making me so nervous they would fall. There were motorcycles on tight ropes. There were girls hanging from their hair spinning ridiculously fast. There were samurais and dragons! There were people swinging in the air doing flips and catching each other. There were clowns, of course. There were people flipping in the air landing on top of other people. There were more motorcycles, this time inside a steel ball driving around in circles (8 of them, which is a world record). The circus really was amazing and Easton loved every bit of it!

Here we are on our way. They have no idea what they're in for!

We arrive (with awesome seats by the way). This is the pre-show and they're already into it. 

Katie was my substitute husband for the night

The elephants were cute. They'd walk in a line holding each others tails, like in Jungle Book!

This is the crazy guy who goes into a cage with 8 lions and tigers. It was intense.

Lexie was loving it too!

More awesome tricks by the elephants. I think they were both my favorite and Easton's favorite

These were the motorcycle guys. There are 8 of them driving around in there. I saw an act like this on America's Got Talent and thought it was pretty cool, and that was only with 4 motorcycles.

And at the end there was a dragon.

It was amazing and I can't wait til the circus is in town again!
