The Big Top!

The boys went to their first circus yesterday! Grandpa Jim and Grandma Sue invited us to go see the Big Apple Circus, so off we went through the rainy day to the National Harbor.

We saw super strong tumblers and acrobats. (While this image is impressive, even more amazing were the times when the man balanced himself on her!)

Both boys said Mark, the clown on the left, was a favorite. He stumbled out at the beginning, a seeming spectator looking at his phone and suddenly finding himself in the middle of the ring.

Of course, as a family we loved the dogs!

In the car ride home, Maceo exclaimed, "That's the best circus I've seen in years!"
