The circus was in town today and we were able to go. Kyle's friend Ryan got us free tickets. This is the first time that any of us have ever been to the circus, so we were excited to see what was in store. We showed up about 15 minutes late, we found a seat where we could. Unfortunately it had a beam in the the way of the stage.
As you can see here while looking at the middle ring, here is a picture of the Tigers with the ringmaster. I think that it was cool-we couldn't see it that well.
So in order for the kids to see the show better they went up to the fence around the entrainment. They didn't get to hang out there to long until they were told to go sit down. But the kids were having fun and seeing all the cool things going on. Some of the things we saw rope dancers, jugglers, magicans, tigers, cartoon poodles and many other cool acts.
This is one of them, this guy is from Peru and he would run around in this ring making himself go in a circle. I don't think that I could do it, actually I know for a fact that I wouldn't because he had nothing holding him in and it was kind of scary to think what if he takes the wrong step. I do think that these circus performers have a lot of talent and guts.
Here are the three kids sitting on one of the 3-rings of the circus. They have intermission in the circus where they give you the opportunity to ride the elephant for $8, face painted for $8, have your picture taken with a bear $6, ride a blow up slide for $6, pony ride for $8, have your picture taken with the cartoon poodles in their pink car for $6. Oh and they remind you to stop by the concessions for a treat- I am kind of scared to know how much those cost. So the above picture is the only one I could afford-FREE. I think it is cute.
This is also another picture that I was able to get of the family (I asked someone walking past to take the picture). You can see the cartoon poodles on the right side and the picture with the bear is on the left in the background. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed the circus. Thank you for the tickets Ryan we had fun.

sounds like a fun time. I have been offered free tickets to the circus, but didn't know if it was worth going....now I know! Cute family pic!
Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! We got free tickets to a circus once and we couldn't believe the price of things either. We saw families with 4 or 5 kids and they had bought food and souveniers for all of them! Where do people get all their money from?? I'll never know! Our kids seemed happy just to be there and it looks like yours did to!! I'm glad you got to go!
