The Greatest Show on Earth!

We went to the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus on Sunday. Keith stayed home with Anslee. We didn't think she'd enjoy sitting still for a couple of hours. Andrew and I took some friends and had a blast.
If you get there an hour early you can go down to the rings and meet the clowns and see the animals up close.
The children got to go inside the center ring and learn a dance.

I always feel so sorry for the elephants. This one painted a picture. Then afterwards the trainer walked him around the ring a few times so we could all see him up close. I planned an escape route in case he charged into the crowd!

This cute clown wanted to try on my friend's boots.


Waiting for the show to begin.

Some acrobats chose Andrew to help them make a walking pyramid. He was so excited that he's now thinking this may be the career choice for him!
