Another first...Class trip to the Circus

So I mentioned that back in February Ashley started going to preschool part time. Well, she recently had her very first class trip to the circus. It was her first class trip, her first time riding on a school bus, and her first time going to the circus. Big day!

All in all Ashley had a great day. It was a little long for her age group--we took a 30-40 minute bus ride to get there, then they were expected to sit for the full show. It's tough with her age between everyone needing to use the potty (double tough for us because Ashley is petrified of those silly automatic flushers--they're so loud and go off unexpectedly and scare her), and it's just a long show. By the time they had intermission Ashley was saying she wanted to go home. Up to that point though, she absolutely LOVED it. She was fascinated with all the lights, the performances and the animals. I had so much fun just watching her face. Great time! It was also fun having some mommy-daughter time together.

Here are some pics from the big day.
