Today what Makes My Monday is being able to take Chase and Cody to their first circus! We went Saturday afternoon while it was pouring down rain and unable to much else. We didn't get very wet either from the rain. 
They were very excited, but you can't tell from this picture! This is before the performance begins and they were (kind of) waiting patiently.
We actually couldn't take any pictures while the performance was going on, but the acrobatics people on the ropes were the best that kept the boys attention span. They also liked the trampoline guys and the tricks that they were doing on the trampoline.
Then this guy and this 2000 pound wheel thing came out and they were like what is that Mom? I said lets wait and see...Well, we were able to take pictures through this, but they are not very good because of the fog machine stuff in the air. 
The guy is inside if the wheel here but he also got on the outside of the wheel and walked blindfolded. It made me nervous! 
He's the little speck on top of the wheel. The wheel just kept going around and around with him walking on it and the whole thing would turn. They liked that also.

So right before the next to the last act Cody says "Mom, let's go." Well this is 1 hour 45 minutes into it and I thought it would almost be over, so I said one more and then we can. The next act was the motorcycles in the cage act. Chase and Cody couldn't take their eyes off of this and came home right away and told dad and grandpa all about it! They really thought that was cool. They rode around in the cage and did tricks!
-----------------------------------------On Sunday, we attended Peyton's 5th birthday party at Peter Piper Pizza. Chase and Cody had never been there before and had a blast!
All the kids sitting down (for 2 minutes) to have (a bite) a piece of pizza!
Cody wanted to wear his hat on his face some of the time and acted like a bird with a beak...all Chase wanted was Root Beer to drink and nothing to eat. It was a great weekend, despite the rain on Saturday...Sunday was a cold but sunny day!

The circus looks like fun! I have never been to the circus before...shocking, I know. That is on my list of things to do. Love the pictures.
We love circus!! So glad they had a great time at the circus and yesterday at the birthday party.
Have a nice week.
I think they did well getting through the circus considering its length and probably having to get there early to get seats, etc. Good for them! some of the acts are terrifying though, aren't they?
little kids' birthday parties are so fun too! looks like it was a blast :)
betty
Looks like you had a fun and active weekend! WOW! Bet the boys slept good for you Sunday night :)
