It seems like some weekends we don't do anything and then others are jammed packed with all kinds of things to do. This past weekend was one of those every minute planned out. Jadon and Haven loved it, they love to go and usually will go anywhere. On Friday morning we met up with a dear friend from highschool that has a daughter the same age as Jadon. We went to the park and let the kids run around while we tried to catch up on things. We have gone all summer without seeing each other. The kids are finally getting old enough where we can actually get some talk time in. Our times together used to be say "hi" and then run after our kiddos the rest of the time and then say "bye" and hugs when we left.
This park had a cave and the kids enjoyed walking around in it. This is a small cave off the big cave.
After naptime we quickly got around and took Jadon & Haven to the circus. We received in the mail free kids tickets and buy 1 get 1 free adult tickets. Praise the Lord we did or we would have really disappointed some really excited kids. I was shocked when I saw the prices to get in! It was so worth it after a long decision on if we wanted to pay the price of the one adult ticket. Jadon loved every minute of it. He sat there through the entire thing watching in awe everything that was going on. Haven loved the animals and once they were done so was she. I ended up taking her outside to run around and look at the animals. While we were out there we got to see the elephant handlers get the elephants dressed and watched how the elephant then helped the lady get on his back. Haven wanted so bad to run over to them. I could just imagine my little Haven starting an elephant stampede and elephants and baby hippos and camels and zebras and llamas running lose all over our mall parking lot. At the very end we gave in to the extra $5 and let Jadon ride an elephant. He thought he was the coolest kid in there, all big and riding an elephant. I remember my first elephant ride at our zoo. I wish they still did that.

Jadon thought the pretty lady riding the elephant was a clown. While we were watching her get on the elephant he yelled, "look at the clown!" Oh, I hope she didn't hear him.
Look at our proud son in the red. The poor little blonde in the front cried the entire time.
