Day 200: The Circus

 This morning Shannon and I stopped by the bookstore and grabbed Panera Bread for lunch. It was icky weather outside all day, rainy and humid! We decided to have some friends come over, so Mia, Brittany, Taylor, Anthony and Collin (Taylor's 5 year old brother) all came! Since the Circus is in town, we decided to create a circus of our own! We dug through the Halloween boxes in the attic and found plenty of costumes! I was a clown, Brittany was a Hippie, Taylor was Superman, DJ was Shrek, Shannon was Super girl, Mia was Dorothy and Collin was a skunk! Everyone was very willing to try on different costumes and rock their hot new outfit! We sang karaoke, played Mario Kart and of course, took pictures! Afterwards, we headed over to Chill Out to grab some snow cones! Even though it was gross outside, we had fun sitting out at the picnic tables chatting with our yummy treats! Collin told me that my green apple snow cone tasted like beer. Everyone was really confused, but it was funny!!! Brittany's cousins came in town today- so they joined the party as well! We ran around at two muddy parks and our crazy day ended with swimming in Brittany's pool (with all of our clothes on)! Every great circus has to come to an end- I couldn't have asked for a better 200th day! Kids + Costumes + Snow Cones + Singing + Friends = An Awesome Day! :)
