The Greatest Show on Earth!



Last night we went to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey circus. It was so fun! The clowns were great! This one came up to us and kept showing us what a "catch" he was.


Right in the beginning one clown came up to Mark and made him come with him out onto the floor. I was so nervous for him! Mark and a few other men got to play musical chairs with the clowns. It was hilarious!
After musical chairs they had him and 3 other men show that they don't even need chairs. Lucky for him they weren't mean to him and we all had a good laugh!
The high wire act, the acrobats, the tigers and the elephants were all amazing! I think our favorite act were the trick dogs. They had two different acts that were phenomenal! They did amazing jumping acts as well as walking on their hind legs and walking on their front legs. Two dogs did the wheelbarrow, one pushing and one being pushed. It was sooooo cute! It was a great family activity that everyone enjoyed!

Mark, you are a star. What fun! The clowns are so creative with their "victim participants", and I also always loved the dog acts. What a super fun night for everybody. Did anyone line up the single clown?
