Circus circus
posted in Fun Stuff, Holidays and Festivals, OmegaDotter, School |Yes, life is a circus around here.
The new vet, who was doing emergency surgery on a bird when OmegaDad arrived at 10:30 p.m., immediately dissected the lumpy thing the dawg had thrown up. It turns out it was a piece of toy rope. A large chunk of toy rope, actually. They did x-rays, they hooked the dawg up to an IV, and kept him overnight.
The thing is, the chunk of toy rope was all white; the latest toy rope we have is blue and white. The last time we had a white toy rope was many years ago back in Small Mountain University Town. We are stumped as to where the dawg got this thing.
He’s home, but still very unhappy.
Onto the real circus, the kindergarden circus.
To get you in the mood, clowns abound:
The kiddies do their songs, en masse:
Dancing bears:
Prancing horsies:
The mighty elephants:
Roaring lions, who also jumped through "flaming" hoops and went "RAWR!":
Send in the clowns:
I missed pictures of the strong men and the acrobats. The strong men lifted "weights" made of aluminum-foil-covered paper plates attached to picture tubes. The acrobats did (dreadfully lousy) cartwheels and walked across a balance beam.
The dotter afterwards:
Too bad you can’t see her truly elegant mane and tail! Note her horsie shirt, claiming "Best Friends 4-Ever". If I remember correctly, this was a Christmas gift from OmegaGranny. Also note the gap-toothed grin; her two front top teeth are missing.
A good time was had by all. I decided not to blur out features because all the kiddlies were covered in make-up and not really recognizable at all.
