The Circus!

Last Saturday we went to the circus with Yaya and Popa!  It was called Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Fully Charged Circus...and it was just that...CHARGED up!  It was non-stop entertainment...so much fun!  Crew was in a complete trance the first half of the show.  He would totally ignore you if you tried to talk to him!  haha! 

Below is the ring master and clown "plugging in" the show!

Crewsie loved the horsies!

The guy in the middle must be the head trainer for the animals...he handled the horses, tigers, and elephants...and you could tell he was a bit crazy!  ha!

The tightrope walkers were very entertaining!

Ouch!

This guys stood in the center of this ring with 14 HUGE tigers all around him...so scary!

About to set off the guy in the cannonball...

Here he goes...

Crash onto the mat!

And when he crawled out he was still on fire!

The elephants were one of our favorites!

Highly recommend seeing the circus!

Trick-or-Treat...

Last night we went trick-or-treating at Aunt Tay and Uncle Joe's house!  Their neighborhood does a seperate trick-or-treating night then the city, so we thought it would be fun for Crewsie to get to go twice!  It was like a little dress rehearsal for Monday night.  I was shocked that he actually let me paint his face because usually he is OCD about anything being on his face or feeling "messy!"  I think it also helped that we were just at the circus last Saturday, so he understood what being a clown meant...make-up and all! 

Daddy and his little clown!

Aunt Tay made spaghetti, meatballs and a yummy salad!  Thanks for having us out guys!  Aunt Tay is 18 weeks preggers!  I forgot to mention that around 16 weeks she was in a dressing room and started feeling the baby move around...so exciting!!!

I made him a trick-or-treat bag this year, but forgot to get a good pic of it!

At this age I don't think kids quite get what we are actually doing!  I think of the dialogue running thru his little head...."Okay, Mom dressed me up like a clown, now we are knocking on a complete strangers door...wait, now the stranger just gave me candy!?!?!"  hahaha!

Candy time!!!

Mommy and Aunt Tay trying to clean his clown make-up off...it came off pretty easy with make-up remover... and a good dunk in the bath!
