Circus

On Brinley's actual birthday, my whole family went to the circus. First, we met and ate a yummy dinner at Pappasito's. After dinner, all the waiters came and sang happy birthday to Brinley. They put a sombrero on her head, gave her a bowl of ice cream with a candle on top, and sang and clapped very loudly! She was all for this celebration until they started singing and clapping, it was very loud and she was skeptical!

We got to the circus and had front row seats! Jason nor I have been to the circus since we were little and had never experienced it from the first row, it was quite magical! Brinley was absolutely entranced by everything! She laughed at the clowns and all their silly skits, she ate popcorn and told me her favorite part was the elephants!
No zoom needed, this was the view from our seats!


In the middle of the circus, they brought out these trams that looked like big motorcycles, being we were on the front row, they ushered us into them and drove us around the middle of the ring for about 15 minutes. So we were in the circus!! They stopped us at each corner and we got to watch all the action from pretty close up! The ringmaster came and patted Clayton on the head and gave Brinley and Reese high fives! It was quite an experience!

This clown was sticking his tongue out at me but the light is shining right in the way!

After the circus was over we headed home with two completely exhausted kids! It was so much fun! Thanks mamaw and pops for such a wonderful night!
