The Circus Came to Town

Granny and I took the boys to the circus in Cottage Grove. I had not been since I was a kid and frankly too young to remember. It was the first time my kids got to go too. So we had a great time. I think their favorite part was seeing all of the animals. They had pony/elephant/camel rides and a petting zoo with goats, cow, donkey and llama. They also had a baby hippo and zebra, but you couldn't pet them. I tried to get the kids to ride the elephant, but they wouldn't (don't tell anyone, but I wanted to get up there with them). So we stuck to the ponies and Gabriel was all smiles. His favorite animal is the horse. We seriously need to get one. But I digress . . . . The kids were mesmerized by all of the circus acts too. They put on a pretty good show. I was impressed and the cost was reasonable. So all-in-all, we had a good day.
