| This has been one of the worst week's of our lives (& I sure hope we're done with those for a while - we have had too many lately)... Because of all of this, this is also the first Sunday I've had off in a LONG time. We heard of a little circus in town yesterday and ended up being able to go today. We surprised the girls this am! Here they are closing their eyes waiting for their surprise! |
 |
| Of course Brooklyn needs to peak once in a while! |
 |
| CIRCUS TICKETS!!! Brooklyn's looking at Bryce like, "this is it? are you serious?!" Haha - Brynn was super excited and carried around her tickets all morning. (We had tickets to go to the circus back in June but never made it because my Dad had passed away the day before) ... so this was a treat! |
 |
| Now they're excited! |
 |
| There was so much to do! Pony rides... and these ponies walked pretty fast so it was hard to get a good pic. Brooklyn and Bryce are in the background. She wasn't too happy with her pony! |
 |
| Elephant rides (at $10 a piece) - I don't think so! |
 |
| Almost time to start! |
 |
| Brooklyn was so funny! She was so into it and was really excited . She is straight faced here but was smiling, pointing and laughing during the entire show! |
 |
| They had all the major circus things there - I was shocked since it was on a much smaller scale. TIGERS! |
 |
| Tight Rope - yikes! |
 |
| Puppies! The girls loved them |
 |
| and COTTON CANDY!!! Brynn ate hers so dainty, one small piece at a time... |
 |
| and then there's this one. She almost pulled the entire thing off the stick when we weren't looking. |
 |
| She was in heaven. She was blue (& so were we) when we finally cut her off! Hope she can still nap :) |
 |
| Time to go! (We only stayed until intermission but that was plenty for the girls - they didn't know we left early!) |
 |
| The smiles on their faces made it all worth it. |
 |
| These two can easily turn your frown upside down. We are so lucky! |
 |
| Despite our unfortunate situations this week, we had a great day. It felt so good to get out and smile again. We know we are extremely blessed to have such a perfect family and we look forward to the exciting adventures that lie ahead for us. No matter what life throws our way, if we have each other we will be OK. |
