Over the Top!








We took a family trip to Ringling Brother's Circus to celebrate Isabella's 8th birthday. Isabella was concerned at first that she was "too old for the circus", I gasped..."absolutely not!" and in my best announcer voice made the announcement that every circus goer hears at the start of the show, "ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages welcome to the greatest show on Earth!"

We arrived at the show one hour early in order to enjoy the pre-show activities that are free with every ticket. For 45 minutes we were able to walk on the ring floor among the performers and get autographs and pictures up close and personal. The performers put on 1 minute performances and we were right there next to them, within inches really.

Our seats were fabulous. Souvenirs were aplenty. What an incredible experience for the whole family.
