Shriners Circus

The circus came to town last week and so Jaysen and I took Mackenzee to check it out. I wasn't sure how well she would sit through it after I found out there weren't any cool animals in it, but she was completely enthralled and didn't move except for when she dove into her cotton candy.
They had some pretty great performers in the show. I was pretty impressed with the mad skills these three guys had on the trapeze. One of them did a triple flip in the air before being caught by the other one and then being flipped back to his original swing. It was crazy.

There were lots of other performers as well, but Mackenzee's favorite was the pink dogs.
Yes, pink and blue poodles did pet tricks for us and Mackenzee was so thrilled! At intermission they let the audience come down to get their picture taken with the dogs {for a price, of course}. Given the choice between the inflatable Dora toy and the dog picture....Mackenzee picked the dogs. :0) Sadly, after the fact we found out that we paid $10 for a BAD polaroid photo. Oh well. Mackenzee was thrilled with it, so I guess that's all that matters.
Thanks for the tickets mom! Mackenzee had so much fun. And thanks for taking Landon with the boys. He loved it too!
