On Saturday we took the girls on their first trip to the circus! Ringling Brothers & Barnum and Bailey Circus is at the arena close to our house this week, so we had to take advantage and see the show! The girls were SO excited about going. From the moment they woke up that morning, they were running up and down the halls yelling "the circus, the circus...we can't wait! we can't wait to get to the circus!" J and I were cracking up because we knew they didn't really even know what the circus entailed (since they'd never been before), but I'm sure they had some ideas from books, tv shows, etc. Thankfully, the circus lived up to their expectations of being an exciting thing! We had great seats, and both girls had faces full of wonder throughout the show! Here are a few pics from our fun-filled day:

There were lots of elephants in the show this year!
Yummy cotton candy!
Motorcycles in a steel globe! They had 8 bikes all going at once at one point...craziness!!
This year's show was called "Dragons," so they had this guy going around at the end:

Such a great day!! :)
