The Greatest Show On Earth!

Early this morning, Will and I headed out to witness The Greatest Show On Earth!  And by that, I mean Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus!  It was A.W.E.S.O.M.E.!  Will was so worn out from all the mayhem, he fell asleep before we even got out of the parking lot!  Check out a few highlights below!

Here we are on our way out...very pumped up...very excited...

We arrived early enough to catch some pre-circus acts...

And then it was time for lunch and lemonade before the big show began...

As all things should, the circus began with The Star Spangled Banner...

The tiger tamer (wasn't it lion tamer when I was little?) was BEYOND amazing...

As was the human fireball (shot out of a cross bow, wasn't it a canon when I was little?)...

But nothing was more entertaining than the elephants!  

They danced...

They did trunk stands...

They balanced...

They impersonated Johnny B (just kidding!)...

And saved the best pose for last.

It was a TON of fun...and yes...there were a couple of close calls (these guys really don't use mats...including high wire!)...and we were totally exhausted by the time it was over.

Can't wait until next year!
