Maeli Went To the Circus

She was so excited to see the "Daddy Lion" that she made big "Roars" when he came out. The 3 tigers were so funny when they would run and jump through the fire ring. She was worried because the fire was hot, but the tigers were okay.

Dad took Maeli to ride on the pony while Mom fed Tucker. She was very excited about it until she got on. After a few moments she wanted off. Once she was off and knew that you could survive a pony ride she REALLY wanted back on.
Dad came home from work early so that we could all go to the circus together. It was so fun to have some family time.

Maeli's favorite part was when the elephants come out. Her arm turned into a trunk and she trumpeted to let them know she was there. The did a lot of tricks and Maeli clapped for all of them. "Yeah elephant!"

We also saw bears riding bikes, and girls swinging way up high. We got to eat popcorn and most of Dad's hot dog. We lost a binkie under the bleachers, and Tucker slept through all of the show, but it was a really fun day.

What a great day! I always loved the circus, big ones and small ones. Altho' the small ones when not outdoors carried a certain aroma that took some getting used to, but I still enjoyed!! Thanks for the pictures. gram
