The Black Friday Shrine Circus

Daddy did a little Black Friday shopping, and some online shopping... We played outside in the snow in the morning.  In the afternoon, Mommy took us to the Shrine Circus with Papa, Grandma, Uncle Cory, Aunt Heidi and our cousins.

Mommy had the 3 year olds and the 5 year olds in her car with Grandma, and we beat everyone else to the show.  (Kylie and Neela pointed out this "sorting" and "pattern" using the 3 year olds and the 5 year olds...)We could not WAIT to walk in, but we had to...


We found our first clown while we were waiting... 

...and the second a few minutes after we walked in the door...

Once we found a place to sit, we watched people riding ponies and elephants on the arena floor... Kylie could not get enough of it, and really wanted to go for a ride herself.  It was pretty hard to draw our attention away from the floor for pictures - even for a few seconds... even "monkey faces" did not seem to work!



Even with encouragement, we still did not want to smile!!

Papa promised us a "treat"... he found cotton candy!  We also had popcorn :-)




Our favorite parts of the circus...
Kylie: The Dancing Ladies, the man juggling fire and the Human Cannon Ball!
Brooke: the Human Cannon Ball
Neela: The baby horses and the Human Cannon Ball
(Do you see a theme???)

After the circus, we went to Aunt Angie's house for pizza, milk and play time!  Mommy brought ALL the kids home, and almost everyone was alseep before we got there :-)
