We decided that we wanted to do something fun for the last Saturday of the summer so we took the kids over to the Circus. They loved it. Jackson loved all of the animals but especially the elephants. 
There was a scary moment at the Circus however. One of the performers was jump roping on top of the top wheel of this thing while it was spinning:
and his foot got caught in the jump rope and he very nearly fell off from the highest point. No net. No joke. People screamed. It was crazy. Conal and I have had a couple of discussions on whether or not it was part of the act. We seriously don't think it was part of the act.
Good thing it didn't really seem to phase the kids. We don't want them traumatized by the circus performers.................the clowns are traumatizing enough. ha ha.

Oh my word, that sounds freaky!! How do they not have a net? Yikes! Those performers must be part crazy!!
I am so chicken of the clowns that I've never been to a circus. My poor kids, I need to just go. I'm sure they'd love it.
Aw how fun! I have always wanted to take the boys but never have. Shucks.
You almost got more show than you really wanted. Have fun with the kiddies in school. Time seems to fly.
know how you feel! I am glad my kids get to go to school, but I will be lonely!(of course nothing will get broken, and I won't have to listen to the arguing and....)OK maybe it won't be that bad.
