Caden's First Circus

 
The Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus are in town.  We decided to get tickets and take Caden to his first circus.  I always loved circuses as a kid.  Back in the day children were able to ride the elephants.  Sadly, they no longer offer this.

We had a good time.  There was a dragon theme this year and Caden has really been into monsters, dragons, and dinosaurs.  So when the dragon came out he was excited to see it.  It was fun seeing the look in his eyes as he watched the acrobats fly through the air and the animals do their tricks.  They mixed lions and tigers for that part of the show, which was neat.  I think my favorite was seeing the elephants.  They did some impressive tricks with motorcycles and horses that was neat.  I love going to things like this when they are in town.  These pictures were taken with my phone so they aren't the best but it gives you an idea of what the circus looked like.
