| Big Apple Circus |
Our connection with Pepsi has provided another wonderful experience. My mother works for the Pepsi Foundation. A while ago they received an offer of tickets to the Big Apple Circus. She and another employee each got 2 tickets each, so she was planning on taking Alexis. However, the other employee was unable to go at the last minute which freed up 2 more tickets. Grandma invited me along, and we decided to invite one of Lexi's friends (Sarah Jane) to come with us. We were so lucky to attend a pre-show Private Event where they served hot dogs, cheese & crackers and beverages. We got to meet a few of the clowns and the ringmaster. Then we headed over to the tent where an usher led us to our seats. Which happed to be (drum roll, please) in the FRONT ROW. We were literally inches from the spectacles taking place in the ring. It was so fantastic. The girls were in awe- they stared with open mouths at many of the acts, they jumped up and down with excitement, they danced, and screamed and applauded with pure childhood joy. During the intermission, we were provided with cotton candy & popcorn. And then following the show, we got dessert in the ring! All sorts of yummy ice cream bars (like that toasted almond bar that I just adored as a kid), cream puffs, & mini cakes. The girls met Grandma the clown. It was just a one-of-a-kind experience. So. Much. Fun.
