See You at the Circus

We made our 2nd annual trip to see the circus today, thanks to Gigi and Bubba for the Christmas presents that had to be delayed a couple of months!!!  The kids were so excited to go back to the circus they couldn't hardly stand it!

Ringling Bros & Barnum & Bailey Circus ~ The Dragon Tour
the opening act
The Ring Master
Cooper's favorite animal
Reagan thought these men worked very hard to be able to ride 2 horses at once!
this is a man doing a handstand on a motorcycle on a high-wire while 2 ladies hung below
Another favorite, the lions and tigers
the tigers were a little frisky!
