My story...

Travis and I have been married since 1996. We have 4 beautiful children: Madelyn (1998), Jacob (2001), Bryson (2004), and Allyson (2007). I love being a mom and wouldn't change a thing (most of the time!).

Bryson's special day

A little while ago Bryson had his "Special Day" with his dad. They went to the circus. He had a great time. They arrived early so they could be down on the floor to meet several of the performers and see many of the animals up close. He also got to dress up in some circus clothes.
This cool hat came with the cotton candy. He's showing his sticky fingers.
The hat was a little big for Bryson, so he had Travis wear it for a while. Travis assured the kids behind him that he would take it off for the show. :-)
Here are a few of the acts that they saw. It's crazy that these performers can bounce so high on those tires!
This tiger was really checking them out. Talk about "eye of the tiger". He was looking at them so dead on that the flash made his eyes glow!
I don't know if I'd turn my back on all those big tigers!
There were several cool things that the elephants did. They all laid on their sides, sat down in a row, put their front legs on the back of the elephant in front of them, played "leap frog" and this is the thing that Bryson tells EVERYONE about. This elephant was sitting on the other elephant and decided it was time to poop. Lovely, isn't it? But, from a little boy's perspective, I guess that was pretty funny.
Bryson really enjoyed his special day with his dad.
Now we need to figure out something for Maddy's special day.
