It's Circus Time


For the past week, we have been in Las Vegas. I took the kids here to Vegas, while Jeremy is stuck working. Don't feel too sorry for him, he didn't want to come. We have done tons of stuff. The kids have done many fun activities with all of their cousins that they never get to see. They have gone to the Children's Museum, gone to the mountains, had a sleep over, gone swimming, and they even got to go to the circus. Their Aunt Margaret, who is quite thrifty and is always looking for a great deal, got us free tickets to the Circus at the Orleans. The kids were quite excited. Here they are waiting for the show to begin.

Hunter couldn't keep his eyes off them at the beginning. His eyes were opened so wide to the fireworks and motorcycles at the beginning. Towards the end though, he was tired. It was a very late night for them. If you asked him after if he liked it, he said NO! Though when I asked him the next day, his answer was very different.
We loved the elephants. I think that was one of my favorites. They were soooo cool. Megan said, she wanted to ride one.

And here is the finale. They had acrobats, shootings out of cannons, magic tricks, tigers, dog tricks, horse tricks, tight rope walkers, and so much more. What a night. Though don't ever try to buy anything at the circus. I couldn't believe how much they wanted for anything there. I had to tell the kids that it is better to just enjoy the show instead of trying to buy anything. For once, they didn't give me a hard time for saying no.

Here the kids are after the show. As you can see, Hunter is the only one not smiling. He was very tired. Went to sleep right away that night. Over all, the kids enjoyed it. What a fun night.
