On Saturday, we treated Trey to a visit to the circus! We weren't quite sure if Trey was old enough yet to appreciate the show, but we know he'd at least love seeing the animals. Mama C and Aunt Kacie also came with us for the afternoon.
We were able to arrive an hour before the show to see all of the animals backstage and participate in the "pre-show" activities on the stadium floor. Trey saw the elephants, tigers, horses, and other animals (hogs, ponies, llamas), and then we watched some of the clowns before the show started. We even got to see an elephant paint a picture! Trey loved seeing the elephants up close.
We had great seats - second row in the middle of the action. The only seats better than ours (front row) cost over $100 a pop! Trey LOVED watching the show - the trapeze artists, contortionists, and dancers, as well as the animals. His favorite part was when a group of dogs came out to run through obstacles, catch flying Frisbees, and do other tricks. He kept pointing and yelling "dog!"
We all loved the circus, and Trey was really good through most of the show. The only times he had trouble sitting still was during the "down times" (i.e. clown sketches) while they were setting up the next act on the stage. It made for a great Saturday afternoon.
