The Circus

Yesterday, Parker and I had a fun afternoon of going to the circus and supper. Mike was in the field and no body else was able to go, so it was just him and I off for a little adventure. The anticipation was fun in and of itself; Parker was talking about seeing the elephants and tigers and saying hi to them. I'm not a huge circus fan, and it proved to be cheesy as circuses tend to be, but I think Parker enjoyed it. It was a long show, two hours almost, but he did a great job sitting still and watched it. We even got a close up of the elephants and ponies. After it was done we went to McDonald's for supper, poor kid had never been to sit down in McDonald's. He was very excited because there was a slide in the building and a clown on the high chair. I told him the clown's name was Ronald McDonald and he exclaimed "Old McDonald had a clown!" (he's very into clowns after a circus). We ate ketchup and french fries and played a bit and then made a trip to Wal-mart. It was a fun evening. Don't know if Parker will ever remember it, but I will. I'm glad my two year old is, at least generally, good company. :)
