Last Saturday, just like the last weekend of every January, we loaded up and headed downtown for the circus. We are always lucky to get tickets from my in-laws for Christmas and it never disappoints. It’s funny to me how we can go the entire year without mentioning it, but as Christmas nears every year Ella asks when it is and if we’re going. Since Sophie is almost two (and still free!) we decided to take her along this year. I was certain that she would be entranced because of the animals and would sit completely still. Sometimes I have to remind myself that she is WILD. She did enjoy it a lot, especially when the elephants were in the ring, most of the small animal acts or when there was a parade with lots going on. She was less than impressed with the individual acts (trapeze, acrobats, etc.) and got really antsy. We had to apologize to the family in front of us for the flailing and we took a walk around the arena, but all in all it was a huge success. Now, lets let the photos tell the story!
