Circus Show Tonight!

July 17th, 2015 at 04:49 pm

F's two week camp is over at noon today; we'll have lunch at home. And then she goes back to camp for the end-of-camp performance. It's a circus camp, and F is doing fabric/silks (aerials) and unicycling and stilt-walking. This is her fourth camp with this circus troupe. So much fun!

Nine to noon is not a lot of time to get much done, but I made some work phone calls, went for a short run (it's the only kind I do - 1.5 miles). And I also paid down mortgage principal with a few snowflakes.

$77 gym money
$5 craigslist sale
$15 survey amazon certificate

We've paid off $6830 this year so far! And the mortgage is down to $51,357. Next month we'll be below $50k and we're celebrating by going to Denver for a Colorado Rapids soccer game and weekend break!

    That sounds really fun! Now I am googling local circus camps.

    Are there any in your area? Or you could always come to Santa Fe for a few weeks in the summer Smile

    This is more like Cirque du Soleil than the circuses I went to as a kid - acrobatics and fabric and stilting... it's put on by the kids who attend camp with this circus troupe - the culmination of two weeks of learning all these cool things! No animals or anything like that... It's pretty cool!!

    There are some in our area but my older child seemed disinterested. I think if I had thought of it a few years earlier he'd been all over that, but now he's getting to that "too cool" teen stage. Wink
