The Greatest Show on Earth

We had a very busy Sunday this week. It started out be going to church. Today we tried out the greystone campus. It was awesome!! I love the main campus, but this one was more convenient and there was no traffic. The nursery was great!! Taylor loves his class. MA and Bella only had 2 other babies in class. It was a really good experience, and we will be going back! After church we went to have lunch at Moe's with Gary and Susan. It was yummy!! I am a big fan of Moe's!!

"Thoughts" by Daddy

After Moe's, we returned home for short naps (for the girls) and a little playing for Taylor and I. Then off to the circus. Nichole packed a lot of snacks to avoid paying $5 for a 12-ounce coke and $8 for popcorn and $12 for cotton candy. Unfortunately, we ended up buying 2 cokes, a popcorn and a $12 cotton candy (more on that later). We met ReRe, Emily and Kacie on the way. It was very nice of ReRe to supply the tickets and Emily and Kacie to provide some fun for the kids. We got to the circus about 30 min early but went to get our seats. The kids were all so excited when the show started. It was definitely two hours of fun and I'll give some highlights below:

i) Within five minutes of being there, we had spent $40 on spinning light toys for Taylor and Bella. What a financial racket the circus is...

ii) 20 min later, Taylor wants to trade his spinning light toy in for a sword with a spinning light thing in it.

iii) $12 cotton candy is purchased... Bella proceeds to take some cotton candy and blow her nose in it. She was so hypnotized by the events of the "greatest show on earth", she thought we handed her a kleenex. She then ate the cotton candy.

iv) Taylor is kicked in the head by the 1 year old behind us.

v) Mae decides to vomit in Nichole's lap and in her diaper bag as Nichole feeds her a banana. Nasty!!! Nichole takes her up to clean her and herself off. Kacie and Emily soon follow.

vi) The show ends soon after and Taylor, ReRe and I leave to catch the others

vii) Safely in the car, we realize we forgot Nichole's purse under the seat. I run half a mile there and half a mile back with dismissed purse in tow.

viii) Home, jammies, teeth, bed for kids, bed for adults, Mae projectiles at 2:00 AM, sheets in wash, daddy to walmart, sleep for 3 hours, Monday morning. Poor MA has the stomach bug!!!

Isn't life beautiful!!!
