Circus Fun :)

January 29

Jared, Kirina and I decided we would go to the circus after our brother in law called and asked us if we wanted to go. After a two long days of moving our heavy things, we thought it would be fun to just relax and have some fun. We got there and it was packed. Thankfully there were a few seats left in the front row so we snatched them up quickly. We were really excited to see how Kirina would react to all of the excitement. Of course she did great. She loves being out of the house and really loves being around a lot of people. She was so dang cute, she was glued to all the acts going on. Every time we would clap for someone or cheer them on, she would clap and start talking. SO CUTE!!! Jared and I had lots of fun also because neither of us had been to the circus in some time. I of course loved all the animal acts. They had really cool tiger act, and a cute little dog act, and some elephant acts. I felt so bad for the elephants. They look so dang sad. My favorite was the bear act. They had the biggest, yet cutest bears doing some funny stuff. One bear was pushing a little girl in a wagon. It was just so much fun. Before the bear act the bear trainer and the bear came up right next to us waiting for there turn. I really wanted to pet the bear. The whole time the bear was staring at us, until the trainer kept feeding him raisin bran.

During intermission you could go down on the floor and ride the ponies, the elephants, slide down a big blow up slide and take a picture with the bear.

everything cost so much money to do, and I really wanted my picture with the bear, but Jared had never rode on a elephant before, so I told him he could ride on it and another time I could take a picture with the bear.

Jared said it was a really weird feeling riding on the elephant. He said he felt like he was going to fall off. It is a pretty weird feeling. I remember when I was younger and got to ride a elephant, and it does feel really weird.

Kirina I don't think knew what was going on, besides that she was high up and on some moving thing.

by the time we got done riding the elephant, it was time for the circus to start up again. The second part was mostly gymnasts and dancers and motorcycles in a ball.

We had lots of fun, and we will probably go again when Kirina is older and knows what is really going on besides lights and shinny things and sparkly people.

After the circus, we went to grandma and grandpas house and rode on some stick ponies :)
