Pardon me, dishes and laundry. I have more important things to do...like follow behind a naughty boy and clean up after him.

The Greatest Show on Earth!

We got to go to the circus yesterday. I've never been so it was just as fun for me as it was for the girls. Too bad Seth won't remember it. He was pretty good most of the time.
By far the coolest thing of the night was the motorcycles in the cage.

There's two pages for each segment. Sorry about all these separate files. My scrapbooking program only let me do two pages at a time for this specific layout, so just push play and enjoy.

I love how Seth is trying to eat Candace's shoe in the top one. The bottom right was the girls' little "ride". They'd lean forward and ride the chair down.

There were several white tigers in the cage. Very cool. Gotta love the tamer's tiger shirt and tight pants.
The catapult flying was two guys jumping down from a ledge onto the seesaw. The guy doing the flips was sent flying from the seesaw on top of a tower of three men. Those flame guys reminded me of the fire dancers on the movie "The Labyrinth". They were flipping through rings, too.

Okay, these body benders were disturbing. I can't believe anyone's back could bend like that. They might have problems when they're old. I love the waving arms on the tightrope walker. The camera was on a slow shutter speed, oops.

We saw some acrobats like this at Sea World in San Diego. The strength that must require is tremendous!
They paraded the little baby elephant out after the other elephants. His little trick was raising his foot up. Haha! He was born on the eve of the Inauguration. I think they named him baby Barack.

I think of Dumbo every time I see elephants lined up like that.

Way fun night and a once in a lifetime opportunity. Glad we went.
