Circus!

Don't get too excited--I didn't take pics of the show. I should have but unfortunately, I misunderstood them to say they were not allowed. Near the end, I realized that they had only prohibited recording. Some of the acts included were trickster dogs; 6 horses--each dressed as a pegasus--performing with only the direction of a whip; 2 elephants; that rotating wheel that someone runs around the outside of (this one actually made Shawn and I quite nervous!); contortionists who did everything from spin plates and umbrellas to amazing feats with hula hoops; and so on.

Taylor's first cotton candy:
Avi and Mommy:
During intermission, we tried to keep the kids busy going for a bit of a walk. As it was Avi's naptime, she kept wanting to go home. I believe Taylor wished to go home as well. So, while trying to keep them distracted while waiting for the second half of the show to begin, we gave them each a baby wipe to clean off their hands and faces. Since it was warm in the tent, they found another use for them... Cooling off! They took turns placing their wipes on each other's faces!



Avi, Taylor (making a grumpy face) and Daddy:
