The Three-Ringed Circus

On Tuesday night, Luke had a music program for school.

It was circus themed and it was fabulous!

(Really, it is by far my favorite program yet!)

I helped out in Luke's class earlier in the day and all the kids were so excited and nervous about it. They kept telling me little bits about what they were going to do and asking how much longer until the program and if I was going to go to the rehearsal. It was a really fun afternoon, and made me even more excited to see what sort of a show they were going to put on!

When we got there the other two boys were so excited to see all the kids dressed up like clowns, lions, elephants, and, our favorite group, the concession vendors. As they were all coming out, the boys were so excited that you would have thought we took them to a real circus!

It didn't take Luke long to scope us out in the crowd. He just kept waving to us and we all just kept waving back. Josh even hollered "Hi, Lucas!" It was great!

Luke's favorite song was one where they got to make all sorts of silly faces--he had been practicing what he was going to do--and of course the popcorn song when he got to try to peddle his goods. He did a good job and sang pretty loudly throughout most of it!

Afterwards we decided to celebrate with some ice cream at Marble Slab where Lucas was surprised/grossed out that the raspberry ice cream that he picked out actually tasted like raspberry.

It was a super fun night. Luke was so proud and we were so proud of him!
