I love the CIRCUS!!!

This past weekend we went to the CIRCUS!!!! I can only remember going once or twice growing up, so I was so excited to go on Saturday, and it definitely did not disappoint! It was seriously so fun! I think it's going to become an annual thing we do...just like the fair! If you have never been...you have to go because it's the greatest show on earth! We even went early because they had a pre-show event where we could go on the floor and see the clowns and other performers as well as some of the animals. One of the elephants came out during the pre-show and painted with an actual paint brush...it was so cool! And that thing was huge, so it was pretty amazing watching it paint with a little brush! I was impressed.

Me and Ashley at the pre-show with one of the clowns...

Here is the opening number...those big yellow and black bouncy things looked like so much fun! I wonder where we could buy some.

The elephants...they were so cute, and I did not even realize elephants were this flexible. I guess I thought they only stood up. One of the elephants even balanced on it's trunk. Seriously, the circus is so cool!

Here are the TIGERS!!!! I totally want a tiger. They are so beautiful and just amazing animals. Instead of getting one, maybe I'll just to go the conservation place in Pittsboro one day and they will let me pet a tiger.

Ben, me, Carleton and Ashley before the show started with our little noses! They smelled so bad...
