Ladies and Gentlemen
May I have your attention please?
Thanks.
Off to the circus we went. Megan invited us to tag along with her and her kiddos. I was hesitant to attend, but super glad I went. Even if it was 103 degrees inside the tent. In the parking lot under the tent. On skinny metal bleachers on top of the blacktop in the parking lot under the tent.
P.S. Love the froofy sleeves.
I just had to take a pic of the "Elephant Riders". How wacked is this? Ummm, don't they know that real cowboys rode horses? Not elephants? I love the fringe on the sleeves. And the cowboy hats. And her pose is so Wild Wild West.
You go cow girls. Or should we be scientifically correct and now call them Elephas Maximus Girls?
FYI: The ring master came up to us to ask if we would move the stroller because an elelphant was going to walk "right through here". Glad to oblige. He wasn't jokin'. I could have stood up, reached out my Go-Go-Gadget Arm about 14 more inches and touched the Pachyderm. His tail nearly swooshed in my face. OK. Not really. But they were close. Also, a word about Go-Go-Gadget Arms. When I was in first grade, my teacher had a candy bowl on her desk that we were allowed to partake of if we had reached certain personal goals. Like not brushing eraser shavings onto someone's desk, or sitting with our hands quietly folded in our laps and not picking the scabs on Jamie Clump's arms. These were real goals here, people. I never did the scab picking, but there were some kids who just couldn't resist. *gag* I used to think that if I had Go-Go-Gadget Arms, I could reach over and take just one little candy and she would never know. Wrong. She totally knew. And I didn't have Go-Go-Gadget Arms, either. Totally worth the try, though.
Missy thought that was the coolest thing. The elephant. Not the Arms.
Here, at intermission, she wanted to ride the pony. $8.00 for 5 minutes. Ummm, no.
Look at those hot kids. Literally hot. We were all sweating inside the big top. Almost suffocating. The people next to us had to resuscitate me twice. OK. OK! It was only once. (Mom, Mandy, I'm just kidding. This is me being sarcastic. It was very hot and uneventful in the CPR department. Plus if anyone were going to resuscitate me, and I got to choose, I would choose the boy in picture number 1. He looks like a nice person.)
And finally....A picture of Megan. I know you've all been wondering what my beautiful Megan looks like. Well, here you are! Hi Meggy Meg!
