We went to the circus a couple of weeks ago, and in case you missed my post, Madison got to part of it. Here are the pics (I took them with my phone). (She’s in a red shirt, ponytail, and a pair of jeans.)

My Thoughts, Ideas, and Ramblings - A day in the life of a busy mom . . .

My family and I went to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey presents Barnum’s FUNundrum last night. I have one word for it: AWESOME. Okay, I may have yelled that, but my husband and I enjoyed the show just as much as the kids. Now, we did go to the show last year, and it was good. However, the show had a lot of magic in it and that isn’t something that I remember the circus having. However, this show was exactly how I remember the circus as a kid. It was awesome to see my kids faces light up with awe and delight (though Madison’s could have been from the ENTIRE bag of cotton candy she ate. She also fell asleep on the way home, so I don’t think the pound of sugar she ate affected her all that much). If this show comes to your down, seriously, you have to go. It is great.

First, there is the preshow. Madison actually got pulled out of the crowd for this! (she’s in a red shirt!)

The opening of the show:

Some of the acts:

My own personal favorite part was when the super hero clowns pulled up:

The close of the show was an awesome celebration too!

I’d recommend every family to go see this show. It’s that good!

My kids enjoyed the circus last year, and we’ll be going again this year. I wanted to pass along the dates and a great coupon code, so you can take your family too!

I’ve been meaning to get this post up, but Will’s been sick again (hence the lack of posts again. It’s hard to put a couple of thoughts together when you are living on less than 4 hrs of nonstraight sleep a night). That being said I have to tell you about the circus.

My kids had never been to the circus before this. Bill and I hadn’t been in the circus in years. I’m glad to report that we were happily surprised! There were a lot of things we remembered from the circus, but it has changed!

As always, there were clowns:

I didn’t remember dancing at all when I was younger, but it was very cool:

I did remember elephants and my kids loved them too:

Though I didn’t remember magic before, but it was pretty cool:

They even had people shooting out of cannons:

As you can see, there was a ton to watch. My kids loved the circus and mom and dad enjoyed it too! Madison’s favorite part was the magic, and Will loved the elephants. I think this is a show we will attend next year! If it hasn’t come to your town yet, make sure you get tickets. You won’t be disappointed.
