A few weeks ago when I was on my way to eat lunch with Tyler, I saw a billboard on the side of the freeway. The Ringling Brother's Barnum & Bailey Circus was coming to town!!! Tyler and I were lucky enough to get tickets and go on our 2nd date since Connor was born! It was the MOST FUN we've had in a long time. It was absolutely incredible!
The lion and tigers were really great to see! It's amazing how many things you can train those animals to do! The lion was HUGE! We were cheering so loud for him!
They had the elephants do a lot of iconic tricks. It reminded me of Dumbo when all of the elephants were performing in the big top. I'm just glad that we didn't have any angry elephants.
We got expensive cotton candy. I couldn't believe how expensive it was! 12$! But it did come with the awesome hat. We were on a sugar high for the rest of the night. That cotton candy got us so pumped!
They put 8 motorcycles in that metal cage! It was crazy! I couldn't believe they all fit in there!
Outside of the arena they had a few of the box cars. It's awesome to think that the circus has been around as long as it has and they still transport their equipment with train cars! I love it!
Tyler and I loved it! We will definitely take Connor some day! Doesn't he look adorable in our expensive cotton candy hat!?!?!
Oh man I am so jealous! Wes and I were just wondering the other day if the circus was all its cracked up to be :). I'm glad you guys had fun...it looks like a blast!
