The Day the Circus Came...

One Sunday evening at Grandma Clista's,

all the adults were summoned outside.

Why you ask?

Ta-da!

The circus is in town!

There was acrobatics of every sort,

and the best part of it all was that none of the kids

froze up.

They went full boar into their program

without getting the usual stage-fright.

{ Side-note }

Well, almost everyone.  
Ava refused to participate and

sat as a spectator in the peanut-gallery with the rest of us.

The conclusion:

The Lions!

I'm taking that one home with me!

Silly...And Disturbing...Sunday Fun

Silly, yes?

I told you.

Disturbing...

Yuck!

Sundays and The Slug

Sunday is the day of rest.

And in our house, it's also when the slugs comes to life!

Iris is our Slug!
Her method of play-fighting and tickling is unique. She just sort of drapes her body over her victims and renders them immobile as they giggle and giggle under the weight of her body.

She comes by it honestly though.
The King of Slugs is, after all, none other than her father, Samuel.

They are a force to be reckoned with, but with some teamwork it's possible to bring them down.

Okay, never mind.
No one can dominate these two!

But it sure is fun to try!
