The Big Top

Saturday, my parents took us to the circus for an incredibly fun day!  Tobin was, of course, mesmerized by the show.  After the opening act, he turned to his Mimi and all he said was "Awesome!"  

This was at the Fort Worth water gardens before the show started.
Then we went to the pre-show before the circus where you get to meet the clowns, see some small acts, try on circus costumes, and get autographs from the entertainers.  Tobin was a little nervous at first but quickly warmed up to the idea:


It was such a fun day and Tobin was completely wiped out when we got home.  I thought he was going to fall asleep on his Papaw's lap while he was watching TV:

It was a near-perfect day.  All that missing was Matt (who had to run a volleyball tournament at his school all day) and Tobin's cousins to share in the magic of the day.  Maybe next year we can all go to the Boston show!  

Thanks, Mimi and Papaw, for a VERY special day!!!
