Daddy took Madison to get a balloon at the circus! (That balloon is still inflated!)

Mommy and Madison at the circus!


We've gone on some adventures in the past couple of weeks. On March 14th we went to Circus Gatti at the Bell Expo Center. We were a bit disappointed, in that, for the amount of money that we paid the entertainment was a little on the crummy side. It was basically the same acts that we had seen at another circus, just motorcycles were added to the mix. For the price it was to get in, I was expecting more I guess. Nevertheless, Madison enjoyed herself and came out with an arm full of souvenirs from the circus. She was so excited about seeing the elephants perform she could hardly wait! Unfortunately, she feel asleep RIGHT when the elephants appeared and was walking to their ring they were going to perform in. We tried to wake her up, but she was out for the count! She woke up as we were leaving, and the first thing that she said was, "Momma, missed elephants??" My heart was broken and as we were walking out, we spotted a vendor selling a elephant on a stick-so she got one of those too!

This past weekend, March 21st, Fern, myself, and Madison met my mother-in-law and sisters-in-law at SeaWorld in San Antonio. We took in the sea lion show, the dolphin/beluga whale show, and of course the Shamu show. I think Madison liked the dolphin show the best! Her little eyes got so big each time either a dolphin jumped out of the water or one of the performers dived into the water. From SeaWorld, we followed mom to her house and spent a few days there. One of the days we went out to Fern's granddad's ranch to see all the baby goats! Once again, Madison so excited to be going to see the goats! When we got out there, we took her into the goat pen, but as soon as she took a step towards the goat, ALL of the goats would take off in the other direction! My husband finally had to just grab a goat and hold it while Madison pet it!

I'm still trying to get Madison to the San Antonio Zoo before it starts getting too unbearably hot here, but it may have to wait until Fall! That was on my to-do list with so many days off from work-but my plans don't always work out the way I plan.
