It's a Circus Out There!

Well, we just got back from the circus. Although Brayden was quite nervous about there being fireworks (which they did not have), everyone had a great time. Brayden laughed the whole time and talked about the circus the whole time and asked questions the whole time. It kept Avery's attention until intermission. Once it started back she was up and down in her seat playing with her glow-in-the-dark thingys that we went and bought at the Dollar Tree because mama is too cheap to buy those ridiculously overpriced gadgets.

Now, those of you who know Brayden real well i'm sure you know his favorite part was the elephants (even though I really think he liked everything about it). Avery, she just changes her mind on what she liked the best.

Since I intentionally forgot to bring the kids candy to the circus (that we got from the dollar store) I told Avery we could get some cotton candy. We fed the kids in the car on the way but me and Bryan had not had dinner yet so let me just say . . . the cotton candy was GOOD! You will notice the silly hat Bryan is wearing in the picture. That was part of the overpriced ($10) cotton candy which by the way I could have bought at the Dollar Tree for a BUCK!! The worse part is that the kids don't even want the hat!

Oh, and the best part of the whole circus. Let's put it this way, it was OUR grand finale of the night (thank goodness it happened in the last circus act and not the beginning). The little boy that was sitting right behind Brayden threw up all over his back!!! Yep!! I think the kids parents were in shock. They just sat there (like us in shock) (in the dark) with this blank look on their face like, what do we do? So Bryan says, "here's a cup". Little did Bryan know that when we were walking out I noticed he had it on his shirt too. So now you know what I did when I got home . . . washed clothes!

Regardless of the STINKY MESS, we still had a great time!!
