The Circus Came To Town

We have to count this as a live and learn lesson. Logan had a good time but it did not live up to my expectations. I found out the circus was going to be in town, I knew it would be small but a good opportunity to see if Logan liked it before paying big money for the big circus(BTW- we will be waiting a few more years for he big circus experience). It was at our local YMCA,  I thought it was in a tent, found out it was in the gym. I should have know when I paid the little girl at the ticket stand my 24 dollars that this was going to be an experience. Second clue should have been the boards in the metal brackets that they were calling bleachers, oh my back!

The show started and we soon realized that it was the same 5 people doing all the performances and they just kept changing thier name, country of origin and hairstyle. Luckily when you are three, you don't notice it, so Logan was mesmorized for the first hour. Madison lasted about a half hour then she was ready to wiggle. Long story short by the end of the night, I felt like I was part of the circus wrestling 2 little ones. We left early and called it a night. On a brighter note, Logan was very excited about the circus and was excitedly talking about it the next morning with my mom.

Logan spent the night at my house that night and we had a great time, so all in all it was a good weekend.

Logan was fascinated by the hula hoop girl.

You get a big fat A for effort on this outing. I understand those wrestling matches at public events.
