The circus!

Well, the circus was a blast! Lily absolutely loved everything about it!

I was really worried because it was quite cool outside but we took blankets in and we were comfortable until right at the end.

Lily was in awe of the elephants when we first walked in! She just loved them and kept pointing and saying elephant. The show got started and she sat so still, just taking everything in..every so often, she would clap and dance some to the music..She loved to see all of the animals..they had a horse show, puppy show, and elephants at the end not to mention tons of other performances throughout the almost two and a half hours.

During intermission, elephant rides were offered. Lily and her daddy took a ride and she just loved it! AFter the elephant ride, we went back to our seats but LIly was so excited and not ready to sit down so she and her daddy walked around for a bit. The next thing i know, the girl sitting next to me, says to me to look that my husband and baby are getting their picture made with a boa constrictor. I actually thought I was going to pass out in fear as my husband held this huge snake with my precious baby in his hands..he probably didn't hold it for 10 seconds but it felt like forever..He's in big trouble!! The picture turned out really good and I dont really think that Lily realized what we was going on..

My favorite part of the circus was just holding Lily and watching her enjoy the circus. I understand now why my mom took us to everything when we were small. It's so much fun to just watch your child enjoy herself and have the best time! As a parent, you want to accomplish that and I just know Lily had the best time ever! After the circus was over, she kept saying elephant in the car and just smiling..She loved elephants before last night but loves them even more now!

Below is the picture with the snake..its scary to even look at for me!!
