Circus Fun

Yesterday we all went to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey Circus at the Energy Solutions Arena. What a fun show it was.
There were so many amazing acrobats and animal tricks

Our favorites were the Elephants and Tigers. The Elephants sat on stools, layed on the ground, did head stands and made a train. The tigers jumped through hoops, danced and rolled over.
There were so many acts. We couldn't believe all the tricks they could do. Dogs did back flips, an elephant disappeared, they rode bikes across a high wire, there were too many to mention.

The performers made their acts look so easy.
There was a lot of cool magic tricks too.
We had a great time!
Two ladies were shot out of a cannon

After the Circus Hayden got to go to her best friends the Arnold's while Jeremy and I went up to Kingsbury Hall for the Bryan Adams concert. Harmony won tickets on the radio and gave them to us. He was so good. It was him, his guitar and a piano player. He sounds just like he does on the radio. Almost every song he sang we knew. It was great for the two of us to get a moment by ourselves and what could be better than a bunch of loves songs?

The Circus is one of those things that seems to be entertaining no matter what age you are...how fun! Way to go hayden with volleyball! Can't beat free tickets for a concert.

That looks like a ton of fun. I was going to get tickets to the circus and take my kids, but I never got around to it. Maybe next year!!

I love Brian Adams.

Fun.

I wonder if circus people wake up one morning and say "hum...I think I will join the circus, or if they want to be a circus perfomer their whole life, or if they just fall into it." That would be an interesting lifestyle....and who in their right mind would want to be shot out of a cannon??? CRAZY!!!
