Sam's 1st Circus

Last Sunday, Samantha attended her first Circus! Grandma & Grandma Merritt (a.k.a. Nebraska City Grandma & Papa) took her to the Mid America Center to see the Ringling Brothers Circus. She did very well considering the show was over about 2 hours long. She loved watching the pretty ladies on the elephants and in the air on trapezes. She didn't like one of the clowns, but enjoyed wearing a red blinking nose like a clown. She says she had a lot of fun, and today she woke up and said "I got to the circus again today?" The only problem she had was that she threw up all over in the grandpa's car on the way home! Yuck!! And she didn't even eat anything at the circus! There were motorcycles racing around in this big ball.
