The Circus



Last Friday afternoon we made our first family trip to the Ringling Brothers Circus at Philips Arena. Luckily, the day before Josh's good friend and boss scored us 4 free tickets and a parking pass! We were all absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to go. I had been looking at ticket prices for weeks but just couldn't decide to pay so much, so it was really a blessing to our family! The kids were a little crabby due a few undesirable events that occurred the morning of (lets just say Mommy wasn't able to go due to prior engagements, but pulled it off anyway!) but they had a great time. Jackson was quite fidgety during the show, but Josh thinks it's because we were up a little too high. We were in the club level - Frito suite - which was great because it had a private restroom for the kids to use. They really enjoyed seeing the elephants and tigers (and so did mommy!) but did not care much for the acrobats, which there were a lot of. It was definitely a F U N experience, I just wish I would have managed to get better pictures of it all.

I love Ringling Bros.! We went two years in a row, but decided to do Disney On Ice this year instead.

I'm so happy you guys got a private restroom! I know how important that is to you! hehe.

Looks like you guys had fun! Hopefully in the summer we can Alexa to one of those things!!
