The Circus!

Brooklyn has been asking me for months if we can go to the circus, finally it came to town, so we went. Brooklyn was so excited and we were surprised how much Beckham liked it too. We were able to go 90 minutes before it started to see the animals. The kids both went nuts for the elephants. Beckham would point and just say "Whoooooooooooooooaaa!!!" Brooklyn loved the baby one who was taking a nap. We were able to meet some of the performers, Brooklyn liked the clowns and the stilt walkers and the jump rope guys. And they both got some clown noses and got to dress up in circus costumes.

When the show started, we weren't sure how Beckham was going to do, but he did awesome. He was so into it. He was mesmerized by the lights and the animals. He was so grown up, he would point to things and then look at us to make sure we saw it. Then he would clap and laugh and smile, it was the cutest. Brooklyn was just so happy to be there and took it all in, it was a fun night.

Beckham didn't like the clown girl, but Brooklyn did because she had red hair

I'm impressed! Brooklyn and Beckham are super brave to be around clowns. BTW that's exciting about Chris' gig post school! Soon you'll be living it up!
