I was excited to have an evening with just Oz. I think with him being the middle child he sometimes feels a little overlooked.
So on Friday night Veronica picked us up and we drove to the circus.
We had so much fun! Although, I have to admit that I had to cover my eyes during parts of the high wire act, and during the part where the guy runs around on a wheel... pretty much during anything dangerous. :-)
The drive home was just as much fun as the circus! Veronica and I just talked, and laughed the whole way home. I really enjoyed getting to know her better. I'm so excited to have found a new friend.
Veronica writes a blog for the website www.akronohiomoms.com. I really like this website. If you live in this area you really need to check it out!
Anyway, I wanted to share her blog with you, so I copy and pasted it here.
Enjoy!
Opening night of Ringling Bros. and Barnum Bailey Fully Charged Circus
March 26, 2011 by Veronica
When I was a little kid, I always loved it when the circus came to town. I was a little scared of the clowns for the longest time. I do not know why, but I surely am glad that I outgrew that. HA!
Last night was the first time our 7 year old had been to a circus. I was keeping my fingers crossed that he would have fun and not be afraid of the clowns like I was. And he wasn’t. What a relief! He was too excited looking around and having fun with his best friend, Austin, and his mom, Becky, who went with us to the circus.
I surely was glad that it didn’t take us too long to find parking when we got there. It cost us $10 for parking, which was reasonable for an event of this scale.
As soon as we entered the building, we were greeted by the many concession stands that lined the walkways. I loved the concession stands when I was a kid myself. There were so many yummy and colorful carnival food sold at the concession stands. We bought a big box of popcorn (it came with a cute big Ringling Bros and Barnum Bailey Hat), a bag of cotton candy, and two cups of snow cones in the cutest Ringling Bros and Bailey cups. Average food price at the stands is $10 each. Yes, it is too easy to overspend, so shop wisely.
