Clowning Around....

Last night we went to the circus with Regan's Brownie Troop. This was their first time and they had a blast. Before the show we got to go down on the floor and meet the clowns, be a clown, and see some of the animals. We saw an elephant (a side view of him) and Reece said "He only has one eye!" We had to explain his other eye is on the other side. We also got to see some dogs perform which Riley really LOVED.

The show was great. There was a lot of amazing stunts and acrobatics. We asked each girl what their favorite part was and Regan said the funny clown named Tom, Riley said the Elephants, and Reece said the people swinging (AKA - people swinging from the Trapeze). They were incredible.

The show was long (2 hrs. w/ a 30 min. intermission) but the girls were troopers and did great. Even Reece made it through and did not even fall asleep on the way home. In fact she was acting very silly on the way home and we joked that we left Reece at the circus and brought home a clown instead.
