Circus Circus





We had the opportunity to go with our good friends Tom and Tammi Auafuay and their three girls to the Circus. What a fun night! The girls have practically been inseparable all summer. Thanks to Thomas for walking from his office twice in 110 degree weather to get the tickets...he unfortunately forgot his wallet. Man what a good Dad!










Who can resist him in that hat?!






The never ending row of girls...well besides the two Tom's. If only I could have gotten them all to look at me....man that would have been a cute picture.








Tammi following my 'expert' lead and taking the same pose from her angle.... I'm sure Tammi's will turn out 500 times better...if only I had skills like hers!







One of the girls favorite things. I am sure I will catch them later on today trying similar techniques off of their bunk beds.








This is the part where Claire leaned over to Thomas and asked "Can you do that with your motorcycle?" Thomas gave a solemn "No." They actually had 6 men riding motorcycles in this iron 'ball'. It really isn't as big as it looks. I'll admit that my 'mommy' heart was screaming 'That is not a good idea!"






Isn't Claire so pretty?!






One of Thomas' picture faces with Ainsley's sweet smile just taking a breather during intermission.







I was waiting for this guy's head to be bitten off, but alas there was no Siegfried and Roy catastrophe tonight.





The girls were quite impressed by the elephants as was I. I can barely 'train' my girls to make their beds, how does someone teach 6 elephants to sit, dance, and roll on command?






I loved how the whole night the girls were on the edge of their seats with faces in awe.






The Grand Finale.....Aaaah What a night!




Next the walk to Thomas' office a few blocks away, with me wearing new flip flops tearing the already surfaced blisters deeper and deeper into my poor swollen pregnant feet...man I'm a trooper! Apparently I should have taken a picture of them to finish my first blog..... I'm just learning cut me some slack!

Jolene you have a way with words it was a great read. It was a GREAT time. Tom and I decided that watching the girls enjoy the show was the best part of the circus. Thanks to Thomas for taking one for the team to get the tickets. GREAT look for your blog. Later Tammi
