Our Trip to the Circus

-
Pictures do no justice to the awesomeness we saw, it was perfect. D's mouth hung open, eyes wide is awe; at other times he was jumping up and down dancing to the music. I think I spent more time watching him than the actual performers. Pure joy.


It was almost a 3 hour show.. 13 tigers, 8 elephants (who i noticed are comfortable taking a dump while they perform) 8 horses, a few bunnys and poodles.. so many poodles (they were surprisingly one of my favorites) Gone are the days of beer bellied clowns, everyone was young and fit, most performances were dance centric.





There were acrobats, tightrope artists, trampoline artists (one of my favorite performances) and the incredible spinning rings performance.. wow.



Such an amazing experience.. 

p.s thank you for all your wonderful comforting words on my last post. I am feeling so much better now. :)

    That looks so much better than the circus I took our daughter to a few years ago - it was scary and seemed low budget. Bad. That pic is so cute, he is so into it!

Kitchen and Family Room: New Flooring

-

When the wall between our family room and kitchen see details here came down we had to deal with two different flooring, old carpet and newish laminate. The plan was to find the same laminate.. we found the box in the basement, how hard could it be? Harder than we thought.. that particular one had been discontinued.. and finding something similar was not an easy task..  Finding a flooring that was kind of close but not close enough would seem like a mistake.. so we decided to go different, this way it would seem like an intentional design choice.. I had always wanted a chocolaty dark floor.. The next thing to take into consideration was the transition between the two floors.. generally what is used it a T- Moulding, that strip you see in the above picture connecting the two floors together. Not the prettiest option. Pinterest to the rescue..  Adding tile to the mix would help to blend the two different brown together and there would be no awkward bump in the floori

D's Amazing Race Party

Last weekend our eldest turned 9.. and we threw him an amazing race birthday party! As with all the boys other parties.. I bought a plain white cake from Wegmans and let D decorate it himself. We had a total of nine kids.. they picked bandanna's out of a bag to create 3 teams. First Task Not all the kids knew each other.. they were too amped up with the idea of winning that they couldn't manage to calm down and read the clue.. so we had to really guide them through it.. they made mistakes and we let it go.. it seemed a tad chaotic..  Second Task I had 33 little medicine cups filled with M&M's and Goldfish crackers.. 6 of them had stickers on the bottom. The first two teams found the sticker in the first try... what are the odds!? And the third team had to eat a lot of snacks before they finally found their sticker. Third Task I bought 48 piece puzzles from the Dollar Tree. The boys took their time making
