THE CIRCUS!!!!

The Circus was in town a couple of weeks ago and we HAD to go, of course!!! Now, last year we went to the circus in Augusta. I'll be honest... it wasn't that great. Ringling Brothers has different color tours and the smallest one is the one was saw last year. Maddox wasn't into it that much and we ended up leaving at intermission. Well.... this year was MUCH different! It was awesome.... elephants, white tigers, wiener dogs, and much more! We went with the Ainsworths; and Lucy and Mary Gaston Blair. Maddox had the best time. Thanks, Carrie, for getting the tickets!

THE TIGERS and their brave tamer that was a woman!!!

After the show we tried to get a picture of all three. Alexa Kate didn't want to take part and notice Mary Gaston's outfit accessorized with sno cone!

Maddox actually shared his sno cone with AK!

The elephants... do you see the woman riding on left one!?!

Lucy and Mary Gaston

Maddox and Boots

I had so many great pictures of Maddox and Boots (Elizabeth) that I decided to create a whole post dedicated to them.

This is Elizabeth Buckler (aka.. Boots/Bootsie..... and yes... named after Dora's monkey Boots)

The Buckler Invasion

Well... not exactly, but that's what we called it! As you know, the Buckler clan was our "family" in Augusta. It has been very hard (for the children included) being so far from them. Over Labor Day Weekend, they came to MS to visit us!!!!!! Thank you Britt and Brad for weathering the "storm" of traveling with a 3 year old and 8 month old for 8 hours!!!!! We loved every minute of you being here and can't wait for our trip in December!

Eating donuts and getting a sugar high for the day!

Sneaking a kiss!

Stealing a hug!

Precious friends!

The fight (for old times sake)!

The make-up kiss!

Funny Kid

I went to get Maddox up from his nap the other day and this is how I found him. Yes... he slept with a pair of "big boy" Diego underwear around his neck!
